With the upcoming release of Assassin’s Creed Shadows, it’s understandable that Ubisoft wants to make sure their highly anticipated game gets a fair evaluation by both critics and gamers alike. To achieve this, they have prepared a comprehensive anti-harassment policy to shield their developers from harmful interactions with so-called “fans.” They are not afraid to take legal action against offenders if necessary.
Relayed and translated by ResetEra, French outlet BFMTV reports that Ubisoft is seemingly following in Epic Games’ footsteps, and others, willing to make examples of those who cross the line from fair criticism into blatant harassment. Employees have been advised not to post on social media during the launch and will receive legal and psychological support if necessary.
The robust plan was presented to the Communications Security Establishment (CSB), Canada’s national cryptologic agency, which provides digital security for the government. An elected official said of CSB: “It’s an initiative from Canada. There’s a team that monitors networks and acts quickly in the event of a targeted attack. The scale is unlike anything we’ve had before; this is serious.”
According to BFMTV, the way it will work will look something like this: “Internet users on X (formerly Twitter), Reddit, or even videos on YouTube will be closely monitored by a dedicated unit in order to respond quickly to the slightest problem. Lawyers are already ready to file complaints in the event of proven harassment.”
I’m interested in hearing your thoughts about Ubisoft and the gaming industry as a whole taking a stronger position against the harassment their developers frequently encounter. Please keep your comments respectful and considerate in the discussion area below.
