Ubisoft Gives Away Assassin’s Creed Unity For Free To Aid Notre Dame Rebuilding Donations

Assassin's Creed Unity

Oh boy, here I go killing helping Notre Dame again.

The Notre Dame fire on Monday might go down as one of the most terrible accidents to happen to a UNESCO World Heritage site this decade. And in light of that, Ubisoft is not only donating €500,000 towards the restoration and reconstruction efforts, but they’re also making Assassin’s Creed Unity free on PC for a limited time.

In light of Monday’s events, we will be donating €500,000 to help with the restoration and reconstruction of the Cathedral. We encourage all of you who are interested to donate as well. In addition, we want to give everyone the chance to experience the majesty and beauty of Notre-Dame the best way we know how. For one week, we will be giving Assassin’s Creed Unity away free on PC, for anyone who wants to enjoy it. You can download it now for Uplay PC here: http://assassinscreed.com/unity-notredame/

When we created Assassin’s Creed Unity, we developed an even closer connection with this incredible city and its landmarks – one of the most notable elements of the game was the extraordinary recreation of Notre-Dame.

Video games can enable us to explore places in ways we never could have otherwise imagined. We hope, with this small gesture, we can provide everyone an opportunity to appreciate our virtual homage to this monumental piece of architecture.

And that really is one of the nicest things about the Assassin’s Creed games; incredibly detailed models of the locations the game is set in.
