Ensuring adaptability without charging twice for the same item is the kind of action that truly appreciates the ecosystem and respects consumer investment. Xbox and Ubisoft have reached an agreement to broaden their collaboration, granting digital edition owners of certain console titles access to their PC versions at no extra cost, along with bringing Premium editions and additional content to the Xbox app on PC.

This move brings ecosystems closer and meets a long-standing demand from players who switch between screens.

PC copies will be available through Ubisoft Connect for those who currently have or purchase the following games:

Assassin’s Creed Mirage;

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla;

Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora;

Far Cry 6;

Immortals Fenyx Rising;

Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown;

Riders Republic;

Skull and Bones;

The Crew 2;

The Crew Motorfest;

Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Extraction;

Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege;

Watch Dogs Legion.

Those purchasing these titles moving forward will receive instant dual access, while those who already own them on console will gradually receive access until August 4, requiring only account linking and updating the Ubisoft app.

Beyond the base games, special editions and extra content will also transfer to the PC in most scenarios, keeping cross-progression activated for compatible titles — excluding only virtual currencies and single-use consumable items.


Meanwhile, the Xbox app library on PC has received significant enhancements with the addition of packs and advanced editions for titles like Assassin’s Creed Shadows, Star Wars Outlaws, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege, Skull and Bones, and Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, as well as other installments from the Far Cry, The Crew, Watch Dogs, and Assassin’s Creed series.

Merging catalogs and removing licensing barriers between platforms demonstrates a highly strategic and welcome vision for the industry. When two industry leaders choose to simplify the public’s experience instead of erecting digital barriers, the community benefits, gaining the ability to enjoy their own collection with complete freedom.
