Ubisoft Sued for Allegedly Misleading Players Over The Crew Shutdown

Ubisoft is facing a class action lawsuit for allegedly misleading consumers into believing they owned The Crew game, which became unplayable after server shutdowns. The lawsuit claims Ubisoft misrepresented the nature of game ownership, as players only had a license to access the game via servers, not actual ownership of the game data. The plaintiffs seek damages and class action status, following Ubisoft's decision to shut down the game's servers in March 2024, despite offering refunds only to recent purchasers.
