The gaming community has been buzzing with discussions in the past twenty-four hours over an incident involving the deletion of a user’s Ubisoft account due to prolonged inactivity.
According to reports, if a user fails to log in to their Ubisoft account for a period of two years, they run the risk of losing access to their digital game purchases from the renowned French gaming company. This development has triggered debates on the broader topic of digital games, reigniting the age-old discussion on whether digital copies are superior to traditional retail versions.
Gamers are actively participating in conversations about this recent Ubisoft account deletion incident, pondering the potential implications of such policies on their ability to access digitally acquired games. The ongoing debates are also exploring the pros and cons of digital distribution compared to the more traditional retail model.
Ultimately, Ubisoft stepped in to clarify the situation and address the apparent misunderstanding. The company emphasized that if a user has purchased games, their account will not be deleted. Additionally, Ubisoft highlighted its obligation to delete inactive accounts of European users due to relevant European Union legislation.
