First wave of Activision titles land on Ubisoft+ streaming service

Ubisoft has officially begun integrating Activision Blizzard titles into Ubisoft+ Premium, marking the first tangible result of the cloud-streaming rights deal secured in August 2023. The publisher has confirmed that the first batch of games is available to stream starting today, initially launching via an integration with Nvidia GeForce Now.

This expansion is a direct consequence of the agreement made during Microsoft's acquisition of Activision Blizzard, under which Ubisoft secured perpetual cloud-streaming rights to the studio's catalogue. Chris Early, Ubisoft's Senior Vice President of Corporate Partnerships, noted that this move is intended to strengthen the service's content offering and allow the publisher to license these titles to other cloud providers and console makers. While GeForce Now is the first platform to support this integration, Ubisoft has stated that these games will become available via other cloud providers in the future.

The initial lineup of Activision games available to stream includes some of the publisher's biggest hits. Subscribers can now access the standard editions of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III, as well as the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy, which includes Crash Bandicoot, Cortex Strikes Back, and Warped. Similarly, the Spyro Reignited Trilogy is now available, offering the remastered versions of Spyro the Dragon, Ripto's Rage!, and Year of the Dragon.

Ubisoft has confirmed that this is just the beginning, with more titles from both Activision and Blizzard expected to join the Ubisoft+ Premium catalogue in the coming months.

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.
