Ubisoft shuts down 15 games online and accesses DLC on PC

This includes only the original version, not subsequent remasters, but many PC versions will not be able to install or use DLC.

Here’s a complete list of 15 games: Anno 2070, Assassin’s Creed 2, Assassin’s Creed 3, Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood, Assassin’s Creed Liberation HD, Assassin’s Creed Revelations, Driver San Francisco, Far Cry 3, Ghost Recon Future Soldier, Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands, Rayman Legends, Silent Hunter 5, Space Junkies, Splinter Cell: Blacklist, Zombi U.
