Blacknut Cloud Gaming has announced a new distribution agreement with Ubisoft.
Starting this month, “a range of Ubisoft offerings” will join Blacknut’s platform, “allowing players to access over 500 premium games via streaming under a single subscription with no lock-in contract.”
Ubisoft, which holds the cloud rights to Activision's current and new games for the next 15 years, confirms that franchises coming to Blacknut include Assassin's Creed, Far Cry, Anno and Rayman.
“Blacknut’s premium cloud infrastructure, broad reach and device compatibility have made them a force in the cloud gaming market and will help bring Ubisoft’s numerous gaming universes to even more players,” said Chris Early, Senior Vice President of Strategic Partnerships and Business Development at Ubisoft.
“This is just the beginning of our partnership and we look forward to sharing more information soon.”
“Bringing Ubisoft games to our platform represents an important milestone in our growth strategy,” added Blacknut CEO Olivier Avaro.
“We are excited to offer our users an unparalleled gaming experience with one of the industry's most iconic publishers and some of the most iconic franchises in the world. This effort significantly enhances our current offering and we are excited to continue to expand our partnership with Ubisoft, both as a B2C distributor and for our global partnerships in the coming months.”
