Ubisoft refunds poorly timed Assassin’s Creed Unity purchases
Naturally, there are some terms. You must have purchased after 2:00 PM EST on the 15th, but before the game went free yesterday. The offer is also exclusive to the Ubisoft store, so any that took advantage of sales on Steam, Green Man Gaming or elsewhere will be out of luck.
As the original offering was PC exclusive, Ubisoft is limiting the refunds to the platform, too. Admittedly, the number of gamers who bought the three-year-old game will be pretty small, but it’s a nice touch.
It’s worth reiterating that you don’t have to get in contact with any support teams. If you’re eligible, you’ll get an email with all the details. Currently, the company hasn’t confirmed if it will be in the form of cash or store credit.
Of course, the April 15 cut off marks the day France’s Notre-Dame cathedral caught fire, collapsing its spire and damaging its roof. Fortunately, many important artifacts were saved, alongside much of the interior.
The free offer for Assassin’s Creed Unity is a way for Ubisoft to share the cathedral in its original form to as many as possible. As a French company, it put a lot of love into its rendition, and is donating €500,000 ($564,000, £433,000) to help with the restoration.
In fact, the version in Unity is actually closer to modern days than it would have been historically. It contains the building’s large spires, which weren’t built in their current form until a restoration in the 19th century. The game is set during the French Revolution from 1789—1794.

XBL-ABNot entirely true. The publisher can decide whether to advertise a game for free.CTV I wish all platforms would be recompensated when they bought this game.
That would be difficult knowing they dont own steam or other platforms..
Plus steam and other platforms would lose money doing that so it wouldnt work out for them.
