Ubisoft Plus Premium just got a big boost. The first Activision games are now live on the service, kicking off the rollout Ubisoft talked about last year. Ubisoft secured the cloud streaming rights to Activision and Blizzard titles back in August 2023, and we are finally seeing the first wave land for subscribers. What makes this interesting on the cloud side is that these titles begin through NVIDIA GeForce NOW, with Ubisoft saying more cloud access points will follow. It is one of those moments where you feel like cloud gaming inches forward without fanfare. Suddenly you notice familiar franchises sitting in a subscription you already have.
Ubisoft’s Chris Early called it a way to strengthen the Ubisoft Plus offering and give cloud platforms more options to license. From a gamer view, it is simple. If you subscribe to Ubisoft Plus Premium, you can jump into these games without buying them separately. That idea hits differently when you see Modern Warfare and Crash Bandicoot sitting next to Assassin’s Creed and Far Cry. You start imagining how these catalogs might blend as more titles come in.
First Activision Games You Can Stream Today
So what is actually playable right now? Four familiar names arrived first. Call of Duty Modern Warfare II drops you into a global fight with Task Force 141 in its campaign, multiplayer modes, and tactical co op Special Ops play. Its direct sequel, Call of Duty Modern Warfare III, continues that story with Captain Price and the crew, bringing campaign missions, multiplayer, and Zombies into the same package. Crash Bandicoot N Sane Trilogy is also part of the lineup. You can run through the remastered original trilogy that so many of us remember and lose track of time spinning through levels. The Spyro Reignited Trilogy joins it, giving you the updated Spyro the Dragon games with all three adventures rebuilt.
Right now there is no exact roadmap for the next additions, but Ubisoft confirmed more Activision and Blizzard titles are coming. That part feels worth watching, especially with GeForce NOW as the first delivery point. Ubisoft also noted that these games will expand to more cloud providers through Ubisoft Plus in the future, which raises good questions about how broad this catalog might become. It highlights a wider shift where big publishers see value in letting cloud services carry their libraries, and Ubisoft Plus Premium becomes a hub that benefits from that move. As a gamer, it is nice to see different platforms sharing content rather than locking it in. I am curious to see how soon we get series like Diablo or more Call of Duty campaigns joining the list.
