"Ubisoft Urges Gamers to Embrace Game Subscription Model Without Ownership"

TL;DR Summary
Ubisoft executive Philippe Tremblay believes that for video game subscriptions to become more prevalent, gamers will need to become comfortable with not owning their games, similar to the shift from owning physical DVDs to streaming services. He emphasizes that progress and engagement in games will not be lost, and streaming works well with subscription models. However, some gamers prefer owning physical copies, and the debate between physical and digital ownership continues as the industry moves towards a potentially all-digital future.
