Ubisoft has updated its End User License Agreement, and it’s instructing its users to remove and destroy their games completely should the title be taken offline.
Essentially, the EULA has given Ubisoft free rein on its ability to stop supporting a game, writing: “You and Ubisoft may terminate this EULA at any time, for any reason. Termination by Ubisoft will be effective upon notice to you or termination of your Ubisoft account, or at the time of Ubisoft’s decision to discontinue offering and/or supporting the Product.”
Interestingly, this isn’t the only company that has the same terms in its EULA. The likes of Capcom, Sega, and even the Oblivion Remaster have the same clause in their terms and conditions, meaning the stipulation isn’t unique to Ubisoft.
Paint a bigger target, why dont ya? I know its hard to reach the middle of your back.
And here I thought it was just me who saw the logo unfurling and changing from a spiral into a Bullseye.
Helps if you view it from the side:
💩
Someone at Ubisoft must want the EU to come after them.
By that logic, they should euthanize the C suite when they retire.
How about this… Not “buying” a game that’s disabled if it’s no longer online…
Or not buying any new Ubisoft game that requires online. I don’t want to buy something that isn’t gonna last.
Or not buying any new Ubisoft game.
