YouTuber Sues Ubisoft Over The Crew's Demise

Ross Scott, the YouTuber behind Freeman’s Mind, plans a class-action lawsuit against Ubisoft over the shutdown of The Crew's servers, arguing that the game was sold under a perpetual license, not a subscription, and rendered unusable after the point of sale. He invites viewers who have purchased The Crew to potentially join the lawsuit and aims to challenge the legal gray area of video game consumer rights, rejecting the possibility of a no-fault settlement. The end-user license agreement for The Crew states that the game is "licensed" rather than sold, and Ubisoft may alter the terms at any time.
