Ubisoft must endure heavy headwind for its latest NFT suspension and now even draws a recently published trailer from traffic. The community had overwhelmed the video on YouTube with dislikes.
Ubisoft has removed the trailer for the NFT microtransactions in the Tactics Shooter Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Breakpoint from the North American YouTube channel. The video can no longer be easily called on the page. Decisive for the step was probably the total negative reactions to the controversial Krypton feature. With over 22,000 dislikes and just over 1,000 likes the trailer was torn on YouTube from the community in the air. (Source: NGC)
In addition, however, there are currently no signs that Ubisoft will rethink the NFT offensive in his games.
Original message from 9 December 2021:
According to Loot boxen, new microtransactions have now officially hold in mainstream video games. Ubisoft makes the inglorious beginning and integrated NFTs (non-fungible tokens) in the tactical shooter Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Breakpoint. Players can now buy in the game numbered cosmetic content with cryptocurrency and resell as will be provided.
Ubisoft Quartz: Publisher forces NFTs in tactic shooter
NFTs are so-called non-fungible tokens and designate essentially possession certificates of digital content purchased with cryptocurrency. This certificate is usually attributed to an artificial and in transparent value without the possession of the digital contents in addition to a capable manner. In addition, NFTs are due to the high environmental impact of the crypto blockchains in criticism.
However, Ubisoft has not influenced themselves and Ubisoft Quartz launched an initiative at which Players NFTs (Ubisoft calls them Digits) buy with cryptocurrency. In the case of Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Breakpoint, these digits will take the form of numbered cosmetic objects — from December 9, 2021, a helmet, a storm rifle and a few pants are available.

Ghost Recon Breakpoint gets new microtransactions
With the Digits Ubisoft suggests a new chapter in the monetization of mainstream video games. While other publishers such as EA have previously thought only loud about the implementation of NFTs, Ubisoft is already making the first step in Ghost Recon Breakpoint. The Publisher claims on the website to enable players with the Quartz initiative more control. In fact, NFTs in the video game are initially nothing more than limited cosmetic content, which are provided by the publisher fee. Why should get more control through the NFTs, there is therefore unclear at this time — in any case, this does not seem to be meant the own bank account.
