Ubisoft Connect is an ecosystem of player services for Ubisoft games across multiple platforms, serving all player services needed for them, from digital distribution, DRM, multiplayer and communications to tracking achievements and progress online as well as social features enabling friends’ progress to follow and groups being formed.
Ubisoft Connect was previously known as Ubisoft Club; however, in 2020 it was integrated with all player services offered by the company and now simply known as “Ubisoft Connect.”
Some of the new features include a more unified library interface that displays all games available to you – both from Plus service and others – in one convenient place. Furthermore, each game will now offer at-a-glance status information, providing information such as whether its been downloaded successfully and whether updates are available.
Another change is the addition of “Smart Intelligence,” which will provide gameplay tips and videos based on your in-game activity – similar to how PS5’s user interface provides game help to its users. Furthermore, this system will include a rewards program where time-limited or community challenges may allow players to earn free game content as rewards.
Before launching Ubisoft Connect on your PC, make sure that you have administrative privileges. Running it with administrative rights will prevent antivirus or firewall software from blocking it, and also ensure you have the latest version installed; an outdated version could pose issues during login process.
Make sure that your Windows operating system has the most recent patch for optimal stability and proper functioning of Ubisoft Connect.
If Ubisoft Connect stops updating or working entirely, try rebooting and relaunching its application – this may help resolve many common problems associated with this utility. Alternatively, flush your DNS and renewing IP addresses using an elevated Command Prompt; search “cmd” in Windows search bar then right click to “Run as Administrator.” Once within command prompt window type “ipconfig /flushdns and then type ipconfig /renew;” if problem still remains proceed with additional solutions below.
