Ubisoft and Epic Games store will also partner on additional select titles to be announced during the coming year.
“As long-time fans and partners of Ubisoft, we’re thrilled to bring a range of awesome Ubisoft games to the Epic Games store,” said Tim Sweeney, founder and CEO of Epic. “We aim to provide the most publisher-friendly store, providing direct access to customers and an 88% revenue split, enabling game creators to further reinvest in building great games.”
“We entrust Epic to deliver a smooth journey for our fans, from preordering the game and enjoying our Beta to the launch of Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 on March 15,” said Chris Early, Vice President of Partnerships. “Epic continues to disrupt the videogame industry, and their third party digital distribution model is the latest example, and something Ubisoft wants to support.”
Development of Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 on PC is led at Massive, with features that cater specifically to a wide variety of PC gaming builds. Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 is the next evolution in the open-world online shooter RPG genre. Set seven months after a deadly virus was released in New York City, the world is on the brink of collapse, its people living through the biggest crisis ever faced in human history.
