Ubisoft’s PC client to get a major overhaul

Over the years we have seen a frustrating number of bespoke PC clients spring up, with people’s libraries spread across multiple different applications. One such client is the Ubisoft Connect app; fortunately, it is being overhauled.

Ahead of its arrival later this Summer, a beta for the overhauled Ubisoft Connect app is starting to roll out from today “gradually and reach all players over the coming months”. Those who receive the update will see a “toggle appearing in the navigation bar of your desktop app” which will then allow you to shift to the new updated client.

Built on an entirely new framework, the revamped Ubisoft Connect app is focused on offering a more pleasant experience with a whole new look taking on more screen-friendly assets. Connectivity with friends has also been a major point of development, with players able to communicate and play games with friends more easily. Though no specifics were given, the new client is also being built with accessibility in mind.

The Ubisoft Connect app is not the worst PC client in the world, but it certainly is far from the best. As such, it is exciting to see Ubisoft’s PC app getting a massive upgrade.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
