Ubisoft confirms online pass
Uplay Passport to cost $9.99.
As rumoured yesterday, Ubisoft has confirmed the impending arrival of an online pass for used copies of its games.
Dubbed the Uplay Passport, it will charge US gamers $9.99 for access to the online features of "many of Ubisoft's popular core games" when purchased second hand.
If you've bought the game new, you'll find a one-time use registration code included in the box to enable multiplayer modes and "exclusive bonus content".
Driver: San Francisco will be the first game to incorporate the system when it launches on 2nd September.
A UK price for the pass has not been confirmed at the time of writing.
