With just under a month to go until the Xbox and Bethesda press conference for Summer Game Fest, the rumors are flying. What rumors you ask? According to Green Ninja on Twitter, Microsoft is going to announce Ubisoft+ Classics will be part of Game Pass. Will they actually include it? It’s possible, but I doubt it. EA Play already can be accessed with Game Pass, so adding Ubisoft seems like a pipe dream. As great as three bundled services under one price sounds, Ubisoft+ Classics is already part of Playstation Plus.
Ubisoft+ Classics is a collection of older Ubisoft games and doesn’t include their full library. Ubisoft+, however is their entire catalog of games. New releases are added to the service on release and any DLC and premium editions of games are part of their subscription service. It’s a pretty great deal and I wish EA Play and Game Pass included DLCs as part of their subscription fee. Even if Game Pass included DLC for their first party games, that would be pretty huge.
They also said that Xbox Game Pass Family plan will also be announced at the showcase. This would be huge if true. Xbox 360 had a family plan for their Gold Membership, so the fact that it disappeared was disappointing. People with multiple Xboxes (including me) will be ecstatic that we will finally be able to allow our families to play with us on a separate console or even on PC using their own accounts.
Contraband
The final leak they revealed was that we will Contraband gameplay. Contraband is co-op smuggler’s paradise set in the fictional world of 1970s Bayan. From Avalanche Studios. It was announced last year at E3, so a lot of people have been waiting for more information about the game. This was last year’s trailer:
