Digital-Only PlayStation Could Grow Market, Ubisoft CEO Suggests

Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot says Sony’s shift to disc-free PlayStation has pros and cons, noting that digital storefronts have helped grow PC gaming and could reduce hardware costs, but also bring downsides like lack of ownership and poorer game preservation; Ubisoft’s own digital strategy and ongoing restructuring are part of the broader industry move, with Assassin’s Creed Black Flag: Resynced performing well despite the transition.

Ubisoft Defends AC Black Flag Resynced Microtransactions as Optional Extras

Ubisoft defended Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced against Steam critics, saying the base game is the full, complete experience and paid add-ons are optional. The remake has sold about 2 million copies and sits around 76% positive on Steam, with day-one DLC listed at roughly $84.91 that includes cosmetics and a map pack, though nothing in the core game is gated behind purchases. The publisher contrasts this with other recent titles and argues players have grown more tolerant of cosmetic and optional content in single-player games, even as debates continue in Steam comments.
