Online gaming subscriptions (and subscriptions in general!) are starting to become a trend, with Google’s Stadia coming soon and Apple Arcade+ coming later this year.
Ubisoft is set to launch its Uplay+ gaming service on September 3, 2019, priced at $19.99 per month in Canada. The service will be available for PC users and also offered on Google Stadia, offering access to over 100 games, along with the company’s latest games, including premium versions and add-ons.
