E3 2019: Ubisoft's Uplay plus will bolster Google Stadia with 100 video games

LOS ANGELES – Google's Stadia video game streaming service just got a hefty collection of games to attract newcomers to its forthcoming cloud-based subscription offering. But Ubisoft's announcement Monday that its new Uplay service with more than 100 games will be available on Stadia, may have clarified – or confused – players about what's to come. Ubisoft will be making its new Uplay all-you-can-eat PC video game service ($14.99 monthly), which launches Sept. 3 with 100-plus games including "Assassin's Creed" and "Rainbow Six" titles, available to Stadia users next year. This will make it easier for players to play Ubisoft's games, said Brenda Panagrossi, the publisher's vice president of platform and product management. "Stadia is a new generation platform where you can play our games on any device," she said.
