Ubisoft has just announced that Assassin’s Creed Origins will be free to play this weekend. From June 19th and until June 21st, PC gamers will be able to download and play the previous Assassin’s Creed game for free.
Moreover, the game is already available for pre-load, so we strongly suggest downloading right now. That is of course if you are interested in playing this AC game. Naturally, PC gamers will be able to transfer their progress to the full game once – and if – they purchase it.
In order to celebrate this free to play weekend, Ubisoft released a new Assassin’s Creed Origins trailer.
![Assassin's Creed Origins: Uplay Free Weekend | June 19-21 | Ubisoft [NA]](https://www.dsogaming.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-youtube-lyte/lyteCache.php?origThumbUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FeCC4lDQt_ns%2F0.jpg)
In this AC game, players will be able to to stroll the bustling streets of Alexandria, sail the crocodile-infested waters of the Nile, and climb to the top of the Pyramids of Giza. As the title suggests, the game is set in the richly detailed open world of Ancient Egypt.
Do note that the game uses Denuvo and VMProtect. After some benchmarks, we’ve discovered that these protection systems are causing additional stutters to the game. Furthermore, it’s a really demanding game, even for today’s PC systems. Still, and since you can play it for free, you can at least download and try it.
You can download Assassin’s Creed Origins from UPLAY (which you can download from here).
Have fun!

This game runs like butt and the free historic tour had me dropping to a 30 fps lock just to get decent image quality on a 1080 TI / 8700k. Waiting for the next generation of GPU’s before I give this an actual go.
Do you have a single stick of ram ? Because I had 16 gigs single stick and was a constant 30 but when i added a second stick it was capable of more than 60 fps I have the same specs as you. And some games suffer from single ram as well, of course you don’t need more than 16 gigs of ram just duel sticks instead of one.
Something was off on your end. A 1080 Ti should play in 1440p60 maxed out Origins no problem.
This was at 1800p iirc. I’ve got dual channel ddr4 3200 MHz 16 Gi (8gbx2) like most people with my setup.
Still off. Even in 4K you can push more than 30fps (more like 40) at all times.
40 fps is butt. 60 or go home.
Good game.
Sure, whatever.
You cannot make it 1/8th of the way through this game in a weekend. They are trying to hook people and trick them into buying it.
John, or anyone else. Have you tried uplay+? Does it work well? Do you like it? I am not a fan of subscription services but I was curious to see if anyone used it.
Not sure how financially practical uPlay+ is vs Xbox Game Pass or EA Access is, given the majority of Ubisoft titles are tens of hours gameplay affairs.
Literally cheaper to buy the games outright.
I used it for 2 months. beat the games I wanted too. got more than my money’s worth.
but is on the pricey side!
Well doom guy kills “Mortally challenged people” so he has no time explore his sexuality. At least Yet 😀
well i finally bought it. Uplay had sale for 18 euros and another 20% off with 100 uplay points so gold edition for only 14 euros. And don’t shame me i usually play assassins creed games because i like historical settings but i am never paying full price because of other reasons.
I hear it’s one of the longest/best in the series. Will try it out myself.
Your blade is level 5, so it cannot kill someone if you push it right through his neck, new trash AC logic
Rogue >>> Black Flag
And Syndicate is good too
***So far in 2020 only 1 game is p0z free – DOOM Eternal.***
Many racing games and Yakuza 7
