October 1, 2025 - 20:10
In a significant shift for gamers, the subscription service is set to increase its prices by 50%. This change comes alongside the announcement that the service will now include the popular Fortnite Crew subscription and a selection of classic titles from Ubisoft's extensive library.
The price hike has sparked mixed reactions from the gaming community, with many expressing concerns about the affordability of the service. However, the addition of iconic games from Ubisoft and the Fortnite Crew subscription is expected to enhance the overall value for subscribers.
Fortnite Crew offers players exclusive in-game content, including skins and battle passes, while the inclusion of classic Ubisoft titles provides an opportunity for gamers to revisit beloved franchises. As the gaming industry continues to evolve, this move reflects the ongoing competition among subscription services to attract and retain players.
The rollout of these changes is anticipated to take effect soon, and gamers are encouraged to stay informed about the new pricing structure.
