The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What players say

Players adore the sailing and pirate fantasy, calling it the best Assassin's Creed game and a classic. But many are furious about forced Ubisoft Connect login, broken cloud saves, and bugs on modern systems. They are skeptical of the remake, feeling the original is being deliberately crippled to sell an overpriced re-release.
