ASSASSIN'S CREED UNITY WILL HAVE MICROTRANSACTIONS
Nothing is true, money is permitted.


Ubisoft revealed that Assassin's Creed Unity will utilize microtransactions to help speed up gameplay.

It's unclear at this time exactly how the system will work, but early reports claim that gear can be unlocked in exchange for money, allowing players to obtain items faster than they would through regular play.

Senior Producer Vincent Pontibrand discussed the decision to include microtransactions while speaking with OXM at Gamescom, explaining that the team was careful about implementation. "If we think it fits the gameplay, or the brand itself, the core values, we're willing to take those risks. If not, then not. We're not going to make any compromises."
Pontibrand also mentioned that this was "pretty much" the extent of the in-game purchase options, reassuring players that they won't be in the game if they don't suit the overall experience.
Ubisoft has confirmed with IGN that there will be more information about the microtransactions system at a later date.
Assassin's Creed Unity is a third-person action game featuring four-player cooperative play, taking place during the French Revolution. It will release on the Xbox One, PC, and PlayStation 4 on October 28.
