The controversial DRM practice which requires PC gamers to have an active internet connection when playing recent Ubisoft titles has caused the French publisher to be vilified by certain members of the game playing public, but today it has been confirmed that Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood won’t have as stringent anti-piracy measures.
"Ubisoft confirms that the PC version of Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood, after an initial login, will be playable offline in single-player mode," explained an Ubisoft representative to VG247.
Despite being billed as the first multiplayer-centric title in the series, Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood also boasts a lengthy single-player campaign and many will be pleased that their in-game progress won’t be threatened by a sudden connection drop.
Recently Ubisoft has confirmed that they will implement DRM decisions on a case by case basis, but this reprieve will surely lead to more copies of Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood being sold and less PC gamers complaining about restrictive DRM.
A considerable win for both camps.
