Best Games In Amazon Luna’s Ubisoft+ Channel

Since the start of March 2022, Amazon Luna has been available for people based in the United States. Focusing on cloud gaming, Luna offers a variety of channels with their own prices and selection of titles, allowing people to pick and choose a category that best fits their needs.

One of these channels is fueled by Amazon Luna’s partnership with Ubisoft+, a subscription service that has been on the market for several years. Once a user links his Ubisoft and Amazon Luna accounts, they will be able to stream a wide selection of the publisher’s games; alternatively, PC users can also get the Ubisoft Connect app and download more than a hundred games. This is the only Luna channel that comes with a download option.

Along with a breakdown of every title included with the subscription, here are the best games in Amazon Luna’s Ubisoft+ channel.

Amazon Luna’s Ubisoft+ channel costs $17.99/month.

Every Game That Can Be Streamed Through Amazon Luna’s Ubisoft+ Channel

As of the present moment, Amazon Luna offers subscribers a library of 40 streamable Ubisoft games, with the majority of their popular and active franchises being represented by the selection. There are a couple of notable omissions such as Splinter Cell and Rayman.

Since Luna is part of Ubisoft’s Multi Access plan, PC users can also use Ubisoft Connect to download more than a hundred games, and this catalog covers quite a few of Luna’s blind spots.

Best Games On Amazon Luna’s Ubisoft+ Channel

With more than 40 games available to stream, people subscribed to this Luna channel are spoiled for choice, and this decision is made even harder by the fact that most of these titles have lengthy campaigns. To help make the process a bit simpler, here are a few of the best Ubisoft+ games.

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey

Putting aside spin-offs, there are five mainline Assassin’s Creed games on Amazon Luna: Unity, Syndicate, Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla. The former two represent the franchise’s old ways of doing things, and they are both very good games in their own right. Origins signaled a new era for Ubisoft’s license, one defined by more fluid combat, a heavier emphasis on loot, and the gradual increase of RPG elements. Odyssey and Valhalla build upon the ideas introduced in Origins, and a person’s favored entry is likely to come down to whether they prefer Ancient Egypt, Greece, or the Viking Age (aka the Dark Ages).

That’s not to say these games are copies of each other outside their settings, but they do deliver similar overall experiences. Odyssey is slightly more fine-tuned than Origins, and it is also less bloated than Valhalla. As always, the game presents a gorgeous and immersive world, comfortably one of Ubisoft’s best to date. The writing is also generally quite good, with even the side quests being an improvement over previous entries in the franchise.

Immortals Fenyx Rising Gold Edition

Ubisoft has a few heavy hitters that are forever in rotation. Usually, there is always a Far Cry, Assassin’s Creed, or Tom Clancy game on the horizon, which is justified since these franchises are clearly successful. That said, Ubisoft does occasionally try out a new IP, and the company has a pretty good track record when it comes to these singular releases.

Immortals Fenyx Rising takes the typical Ubisoft open-world and streamlines it, opting to eliminate most of the fluff content in favor of a more digestible and less life-consuming overall package. Inspired by Greek mythology and sharing a couple of similarities with The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Immortals is a fun action-packed epic that offers fast-paced combat and gorgeous visuals.

Beyond Good & Evil

Released in 2003, Beyond Good & Evil hit a home run with critics but fell short of commercial expectations, however, positive word of mouth gradually cemented its place as a cult classic. Ambitious and forward-thinking, this title has a sense of adventure to it that few games from any era can match, and it comes with great characters, a fully realized world, and an effective central storyline.

Although certain elements like the combat are a bit janky, Beyond Good & Evil generally holds up quite well in most areas, including the visuals. While there are certainly more successful releases available in the channel, Beyond Good & Evil is one of the best Ubisoft games ever.

Far Cry 6

On Metacritic, Far Cry 6 is the lowest-rated main entry in the franchise, but that does not paint the full picture. Critically, Ubisoft’s license has been on a downward spiral ever since the release of the third game, and that is partially due to fatigue rather than a direct reflection of the quality of the releases. For better or worse, Far Cry does not like to deviate too much from the beaten path as each game follows a very similar formula. Far Cry 6 brings a few new ideas to the table, but they are not as meaningful (or as successful) as they could have been.

That said, the games are still fun in a vacuum, and each entry improves its predecessor’s gunplay. In terms of minute-to-minute gameplay, Far Cry 6 is among the franchise’s best. The first-person shooter’s setting is aesthetically pleasing as well, even if the story seems a bit too scared to take any real risks.

Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon

Far Cry has found a formula that works and the series is determined to stick to it. The mainline open-world entries are largely enjoyable, however, by this point, someone should be fully aware of whether they like the franchise’s gameplay loop or not.

Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon is worth recommending to non-fans of Ubisoft’s series. Split into missions, Blood Dragon is a streamlined first-person shooter that pays homage to classic action movies from yesteryear. The game does not take itself seriously, can be completed within a couple of hours, and is ridiculously entertaining.

Prince Of Persia: The Lost Crown

The only Prince of Persia game directly on Amazon Luna is The Lost Crown, which also happens to be the franchise’s most recent project. While its initial reveal garnered a mixed response, this spin-off eventually proved all the doubters wrong, delivering one of the best entries in the series so far. Unlike the 3D era, The Lost Crown is a 2.5D Metroidvania that blends tight action, platforming, and exploration. Players control Sargon, a member of the Immortals clan, as they go on an epic journey that involves taking on deity-like figures.

The Lost Crown might not be the version of Prince of Persia most people grew up on, but it is a polished and high-quality title that does justice to the license’s storied history. The game has fairly fast-paced combat that will test Amazon Luna’s capabilities, but if it runs well, this is a must-play title.

Child Of Light

A refreshing change of pace for Ubisoft, Child of Light is a turn-based RPG with a whimsical storybook-style narrative. As Aurora, players traverse the gorgeous Lemuria on a quest to free the land from the Queen of the Night’s grasp; along the way, the protagonist makes a few friends who decide to join in.

While this RPG is a budget title compared to most of Ubisoft’s releases, Child of Light simply radiates charm and passion. For those looking to see a different side to the publisher, this RPG is a fantastic game to pick. Its battle system is also a good fit for Amazon Luna’s cloud-based service.

Watch Dogs 2 Gold Edition

All three Watch Dogs games are available on Amazon Luna’s Ubisoft+ channel, and while the series struggles to reach the heights of some of the company’s other open-world franchises, each entry in the trilogy is quite unique. They all have their positives, but if forced to pick the best overall experience, Watch Dogs 2 takes the prize since it has the strongest mix of gameplay, story, and sheer fun factor.

Set in San Francisco, the game follows a group of hackers who are opposing a widespread system designed to big brother the city’s residents. Watch Dogs 2‘s open-world is gorgeous and unsurprisingly huge, although not overwhelmingly so like a few other Ubisoft titles. The narrative keeps things moving at a reasonable pace, and the map comes packed with side content for those who want to step away from the main quest.

Trials Rising Gold Edition

When it comes to picking the better option out of the two Trials games on the Ubisoft+ channel, the selection mostly comes down to the player’s familiarity with this series. Newcomers should start with Trials Rising as it does a better job of easing beginners into the franchise’s physics-based stunts. In comparison, Trials Fusion is less welcoming of inexperienced players.

Trials Rising is also just a really awesome game with impressive visuals, solid courses, and a fair amount of replay value. This property might not be that representative of the typical Ubisoft brand, but Trials has been a constant source of brilliance for roughly two decades.

Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World: The Game – Complete Edition

Originally released in 2010, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game was delisted in 2014, making it impossible to purchase the beat ’em up licensed game. After years of hoping, fans were finally granted an opportunity to replay this title as Ubisoft announced and released the Complete Edition, a remaster that includes all the DLC.

A fun co-op romp, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game does justice to the source material, delivering charming retro visuals alongside solid gameplay. Like in the graphic novel and movie, the game’s plot follows Scott as he takes on Ramona’s evil exes in glorious battles. While not deviating too far from the tried-and-true beat ’em up formula, the combat system does offer quite a bit of variety since each playable character comes with unique movesets. There is even a progression system so that things do not get stale too quickly.

Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 Ultimate Edition

Debuting in 2019, The Division 2 has been a resounding success, even if it does not attract as much attention as some other online shooters like Destiny 2. Set in Washington D.C. in a world that has been ravished by a disease, the RPG builds upon the ideas of its predecessor while introducing an open-world with more variety and intrigue. Narratively, The Division 2 is perfectly serviceable, but the story is seldom the selling point of live service games – it is all about their gameplay loop and endgame content.

The Division 2 is a confident third-person shooter with solid loot, good visuals, and fun co-op options. The endgame is reasonably well-designed, offering a lot of content for players to go through, particularly in the Ultimate Edition. If someone is not interested in the endless grind, the campaign works well as a straightforward RPG shooter.

Best Games On Ubisoft Connect App (PC Only)

Luna users with an Ubisoft+ subscription can also get Ubisoft Connect on their PC to download and play a host of games that cannot be streamed. Please note that the player’s computer would need to meet a game’s minimum requirements since Ubisoft Connect does not use Cloud Streaming.

Rayman Legends

Metascore: 89

Except for some mobile games, Ubisoft has all but forgotten Rayman. The franchise’s recent inactivity has been especially frustrating since its last full releases, Rayman Origins and Rayman Legends, were among the best platformers of the 2010s. That might sound like hyperbole, but both games hold up well to repeat playthroughs.

Boasting a gorgeous art style, brilliant music, and addictive gameplay, Rayman Legends hits the ground running and never slows down. The project is packed to the brim with content, including quite a few levels from its predecessor, Origins. Regardless of whether someone grew up with the classic Rayman games or not, Legends is a must-play for anyone remotely interested in platformers. For those who do not love the genre, this game might be the one to change their mind.

Prince Of Persia: The Sands Of Time

Metascore: 89

Through the Ubisoft Connect app, Ubisoft+ subscribers can revisit all the 3D Prince of Persia games. While some entries are more loved than others, they are all, at worst, decent. At their best, the games are masterpieces. Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time is regarded as a cornerstone release in the action-adventure genre, and it would go on to influence Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed.

Even nearly two decades later, The Sands of Time‘s platforming and parkour are still a sight to behold. The Prince moves with a grace that few video game protagonists can match, and the level design is top-notch throughout. Although dated in places, this 2003 game has not lost a shred of charm.

After completing the first game, players should give the sequels a try.
Warrior Within
has a great combat system, while
The Two Thrones
strikes a good middle ground between its two predecessors. Even 2008’s
Prince of Persia
and
The Forgotten Sands
are passable outings.

Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory

Metascore: 92

Ubisoft Connect has an array of Splinter Cell games, including 2013’s Blacklist. Most of these titles are fantastic, but if forced to select the cream of the crop, it would have to be 2005’s Chaos Theory.

The stealth genre has naturally grown since the mid-2000s, and some aspects of Chaos Theory do show their age. Nevertheless, the overall campaign is a great deal of fun since its mechanics, story, and level design are all well above average. People unfamiliar with Sam Fisher should consider starting with this title, at least until Ubisoft releases the first game’s remake.

South Park: The Fractured But Whole

Metascore: 81

Both of Ubisoft’s South Park games are must-play titles for not just fans of the animated show but also anyone interested in turn-based RPGs. Obsidian’s The Stick of Truth got the ball rolling with an authentic adaptation that expertly captured the look and humor of the source material. The 2014 game is on Ubisoft Connect and should be the starting point for someone who has not played either of these releases.

2017’s South Park: The Fractured but Whole builds splendidly on its predecessor, fine-tuning the combat system to create a campaign that is more consistently great. Narratively, the sequel focuses on the superhero movie industry, parodying the genre’s stories along with its creation process. While not an especially novel concept, The Fractured but Whole does a good job of making it seem fresh.
