You now have until October 1st to cram in some multiplayer for several early Assassin’s Creeds, the original version of Far Cry 3, Driver: San Francisco and others. Ubisoft say they’ve been “exploring what is possible to reduce disruption” over the last month, hence the shuffled date for decommissioning.

The firm also stated that Anno 2070 will not longer be taken offline. The firm initially said that 15 titles would be affected by the removal of online services, meaning that online features, DLC, and multiplayer modes would no longer be accessible. Now, according to Ubisoft, the single-player DLC of several games on PC - Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, Assassin's Creed 3 (2012 release), Far Cry 3 and Splinter Cell Blacklist - will be available to download and keep before October 1. If you own these games on PC, activate your DLC before the decommissioning to continue playing it. There will be no impact to the same single-player DLC on consoles, and you will continue to be able to download and play them after October 1 rolls around.

Nothing lasts forever, especially in the world of video games. The latest case of video games losing their online services was announced by Ubisoft earlier this week, with a number of older titles losing their multiplayer. Worse still, PC versions of some games will also no longer let you download DLC for them. Explaining in the announcement post, Ubisoft wrote "Closing the online services for some older games allows us to focus our resources on delivering great experiences for players who are playing newer or more popular titles." The titles listed will lose multiplayer from September 1, later this year.

For several of those games, that means that as of September 1st, "the installation and access to DLC will be unavailable," according to an Ubisoft support page.

(If you're not up to date on the Assassin's Creed games up to Syndicate, beware spoilers below.) Back in 2016, Ubisoft and Titan Comics revealed that the First Civilisation plotline which featured in multiple Assassin's Creed games would instead "culminate" in a new series of graphic novels. Read more… Assassin’s Creed Heritage Collection bundles all previous Assassin’s Creed gamesOct 4, 2013 - PC Gamer More and more new games every year are sequels, so I guess the next logical step is enormous collections of previously released games. Bethesda announced at QuakeCon that every Elder Scrolls game would be available, and now Ubisoft is following suit with the Assassin’s Creed Heritage Collection. Available on November 8, the Heritage Collection will include Assassin’s Creed, Assassin’s Creed 2, Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood, Assassin’s Creed: Revelations, and Assassin’s Creed 3. The official price has not been announced, but some listings are starting to pop up in the neighborhood of $70/£40, which isn’t outrageous for five games plus DLC. Still, at that price you’re paying a premium for the packaging and whatever extras they throw in there, and we have no idea what those extras might be. Of course, Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag lands on November 19. Technically speaking, I suppose gamers brand-new to the series could pound through the first five games in time for the launch of Black Flag, but only if they’re willing to give up showering and eating. Still, die-hard fans might appreciate having the games and their individual DLCs all in one tidy package.Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag box art advertises secret order with massive black flagFeb 28, 2013 - PC Gamer The hero of Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag (already truncated to AssFlag in office lingo) makes a bid to become the loudest assassin yet in the box art Ubisoft put out today. He is wearing FOUR guns. He's wearing his "hidden" blade on the outside of his sleeve. He has woven a flag with the Assassin order logo on it, and then, because it wasn't piratey enough, plopped a skull in there for good measure. Because that's what you do, isn't it, when you're a pirate? You whack a skull on it. Assassin's Creed 4 is about pirates, and boats, and islands, and killing bad men. All will be revealed on Monday when details banks burst and information flows through the webways, as hot and saucy as the regurgitated rum of a green sailor's first hurl. Those of us in the office that played Assassin's Creed 3 really enjoyed the sea bits, which bodes well for this latest outing. We'll have preview here for you on Monday, and we've squared away four pages in the next issue of PC Gamer, too. Here be ye box art ye blaggards. More Assassin’s Creed and Far Cry on the wayFeb 8, 2013 - PC Gamer PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: calling all Tapirs, please be on guard. Ubi have revised their yearly profit estimates up to somewhere between 90 and 100 million Euros after better-than-expected sales late last year, and are going to need a much bigger wallet. Gamasutra report that Assassin's Creed 3 shifted 12 million copies in the meatspace and online which is 70% more than AssCreed: Revelations managed. Far Cry 3 sold 4.5 million. A "much higher-than-expected performance," which means "fans certainly won't have to wait four more years for the next Far Cry." The next Assassin's Creed was also briefly mentioned. It'll apparently take place in a fresh setting and star a new hero. So much for Connor, then. Requiescat in pace, brusque angry hatchet-dude. I will remember you always, apart from your face and everything you said and did. That's all the info for now, but there's still time to honour Haiku Friday with a brief but moving summation of all our hopes and dreams for Far Cry 4.

DirectX 11 features like tessellation will smooth out those polygons and we can look forward to textures that, in some cases, will be four times the resolution of the console versions. Community developer "UbiGabe" also says that "when PC launches, it will include ALL of the console patches out at the time (so, that includes any patches we might be releasing in between now and PC launch). In addition, PC has a special patch designed to ensure that everything runs as smoothly as possible." Textures will be "double-res in most cases, but quadruple in some," and there will be "some other shader improvements that will have an impact, but aren't all that sexy to enumerate in a reddit post." UbiGabe should drop us a line, NOTHING IS TOO UNSEXY FOR US. But seriously, other important issues were raised during the Q&A, like the vital question "Do you think Connor would rather fight 100 duck-sized horses, or one horse-sized duck?" to which the predictable response was "I think Connor's speed and size would prove to be the difference maker in the battle against the mob of horse-ducks so I lean towards them." This brilliant Assassin's Creed Kinect April Fool video also came up again, which is all the excuse I need to embed it on my forehead to amuse everyone I meet today. Also here: Assassin’s Creed 3 microtransactions “a shortcut to unlock game items”Oct 30, 2012 - PC Gamer After the appearance of listings for in-game "Erudito Credits" yesterday, Ubisoft have confirmed that there will be microtransactions in Assassin's Creed 3. "The Erudito Credits are a new way of unlocking content in Assassin's Creed 3's Multiplayer," Ubisoft told Eurogamer. "People who have little time can use Erudito Credits as a shortcut to unlock game items from level 1 to 50 (excluding Prestige levels and relics rewards). This is not mandatory, all items sold in Erudito Credits are also available in Abstergo Credits and can be unlocked through normal progression like previous years." Assassin's Creed 3 isn't the first full price game to contain optional microtransactions, boxes can be bought in Mass Effect 3's multiplayer mode to unlock new weapons and classes a bit quicker, though it's a bit of a lottery. It sounds as though this system will be a more straightforward 'pay for credits buy the item' deal though it won't be clear how expensive those upgrades are until the game goes live. Assassin's Creed 3 goes on sale today on consoles in the US. It's out on November 20 in the US and November 23 in the UK on PC. The console launch means there is a new launch trailer, which is different from last week's launch trailer, in that it's longer in order to fit in more hitting with axes. Assassin’s Creed 3 to feature microtransactionsOct 29, 2012 - PC Gamer Listings on the Xbox marketplace and the Playstation store reveal plans to sell in-game currency for real world money in Assassin's Creed 3, according to Eurogamer. The listings sell set amounts of "Erudito credits," which is thought to be the currency used in Assassin's Creed 3's multiplayer mode. Worthplaying captured a shot of the sale page for a batch of credits with accompanying description. "Buying this pack will grant you 925 Erudito Credits ingame, allowing you to acquire some game items, disregarding your current level." Listings on the Playstation store have prices, too: Assassin’s Creed III 155 Erudito Pack – ($4.99) Assassin’s Creed III 20 Erudito Pack – ($0.99) Assassin’s Creed III 380 Erudito Pack – ($9.99) Assassin’s Creed III 50 Erudito Pack – ($1.99) Assassin’s Creed III 925 Erudito Pack – ($19.99) Ubisoft haven't spoken about in-game microtransactions yet, but it's out tomorrow on consoles in the US, so we should see what we'll be able to buy with Erudito coins soon enough. Assassin's Creed 3 is due out on PC on November 20 in the US and November 23 in Europe.Assassin’s Creed 3 trailer kicks a man right in the ballsOct 25, 2012 - PC Gamer Console players will get their paws on Assassin's Creed 3 next week. We'll have to wait until November 20 in the US and November 23 in Europe, sadly, but you can absorb a 90 second montage of the action courtesy of the launch trailer, which features fighting on the high seas, some great big battle scenes, a bit of tragic back story and one particularly cruel groin kick.

Assassin’s Creed 3 multiplayer trailer drops moneybombs, breaks out huge hammersOct 17, 2012 - PC Gamer A pirate throwing moneybombs to distract peasants makes sense, but why is the Carpenter carrying a huge hammer? Has he stolen it from a blacksmith? Why is nobody stopping him from bludgeoning others' brains out in broad daylight? Assassin's Creed 3's multiplayer mode will be a vicious, stabby, smashy affair that's for sure. Ubisoft are hoping to spice things up with new game modes that'll have assassin's occupying glowing circles to take territory, and working together to hunt down NPC targets. See those game modes in action in the latest Assassin's Creed 3 trailer below. Assassin’s Creed 3 system requirements appear, render the American Revolution on 2GB RAMSep 26, 2012 - PC Gamer Assassin's Creed 3 will squash the American Revolution onto 17GB of hard drive space according to the minimum system specs carried by Kotaku. That's a hefty chunk of data. Hopefully it's all made up of high resolution textures to make the PC edition shine. It won't run on XP, if you're still using that, but the rest of the requirements look nice and manageable. The PC version is coming out a short while after the console edition on November 20 in the US and November 23 in Europe. Find out how it plays in our recent Assassin's Creed 3 hands-on account.
