Ubisoft Launches 40th Anniversary Celebrations with Exciting Events and Contests

Ubisoft is celebrating a significant milestone this year, marking 40 years since its founding in 1986. To commemorate this anniversary, the company has launched a series of events designed to engage fans and reflect on its rich gaming history.

The celebration begins with a nostalgic video that showcases key characters and games from Ubisoft's past, featuring beloved titles from the early days of Rayman to the latest entries in the Assassin’s Creed series. This video is not just a trip down memory lane; it also includes numerous easter eggs and references to 40 different games and characters. Fans who can identify all 40 references have a chance to win a free one-year subscription to Ubisoft+.

To participate in the contest, players need to visit Ubisoft’s social media pages on TikTok, X, or Instagram and list all 40 references in the comments by July 17. Ten lucky winners will be randomly selected on July 21 and notified through the platform they used to submit their answers. For those interested, detailed terms and conditions are available on Ubisoft’s social media channels.

In addition to the contest, Ubisoft has planned a variety of content to be released over the coming weeks, culminating in September. While the full schedule has not been disclosed, several key segments have been announced:

• Passion Meets Craft: Two episodes exploring the dedication of developers and players, including insights into the development of the puppet theater for Assassin’s Creed Shadows’ Claws of Awaji expansion.
• 40 Years of Fanart: A showcase of fan-created art over the years, featuring commentary from Ubisoft artists and developers.
• Player Stories: Personal accounts from players about how Ubisoft games have impacted their lives.
• Behind the Screen: Stories from Ubisoft teams about the cultural moments they have contributed to.
• While You Were Playing: An exploration of the technology and innovations that drive Ubisoft’s games.

Ubisoft encourages fans to follow their social media pages to stay updated on the anniversary celebrations and to discover any surprises that may be in store. This 40th anniversary not only honors the company’s legacy but also highlights the community that has supported it throughout the years.
