There has to be some executive over at Ubisoft HQ who's just mashing all of their games together like they're playing with Barbies. We've already seen a fair few crossovers for the Greek Myth-meets-Assassin's Creed game, Immortals Fenyx Rising: from Adventure Time DLC to a tie-in with Netflix exclusive Blood Of Zeus, it's pretty clear that someone's renting out advertising space in the god-filled world of Fenyx and pals.
Now, we have UNO-meets-Immortals, except this time, it's Fenyx who'll be travelling to other games, not getting new content herself. Special games of Fenyx Quest will be available from today in UNO, which give players the opportunity to free one of four gods from Typhon's Curse - just like in Immortals. They'll provide the player with a passive blessing once freed, like the ability to discard all cards of a single colour, making you immune to damage, or being able to discard cards when specific actions are taken.
Could this open the door for even more collaborations between Ubisoft and, er, Ubisoft? Maybe we'll see the Vikings in Assassin's Creed Valhalla appear in the next Mario + Rabbids game? Or perhaps the next Watch Dogs sequel will take a leaf out of Just Dance's book, and require us to hack our way into the system by busting some moves?
Which Ubi games would you love to see mashed together like Barbie and Ken's faces? Drop your pitches in the comments.

Very unique mind set of whoever did this, not sure if it's a great mindset or not though.
Uno and Monopoly would be so easy to release so much DLC for and yet they don't for some reason.
CASH Grab by any stretch of the imagination.
Wow, they’re really pushing this game. I’d assumed they were going to cut their losses after the initial chart performance, but Ubi seems determined to make it a success. (Not sure if the UNO audience overlaps with their target audience much though.)
How ubisoft got uno.
Ubisoft: YOU HAVE UNO.
This has got to be one of the most hilarious, yet genius crossover ideas I have ever seen. A worthy competitor to Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare x Aquafina.
I'd just like to see Rayman again.
Sure, why not? But... why?
Unless...?
I'm pretty sure that Immortals Fenyx Rising has had more crossovers at this point, than Ninjala has. Not saying that collabs are bad at all, but having like 4 collabs in a two month (ish) timeframe is pretty crazy, vs. 4 collabs in a six-month timeframe. 🤔
Pretty soon, the new "Official" title of this game will be Immortals Fenyx Rising: The Card Game Featuring Dante from Devil May Cry, with New Funky Mode, & Knuckles, Gold Definitive Edition, by the time all the collabs for Immoral Fenyx Rising are done. 🤔
STEEP the winter sports simulator is one of my favourite ever games because it is so utterly relaxing. I'm still disappointed that Ubisoft hasn't ported it to Switch. STEEP X UNO would be nice. And please Ubi do the decent thing and put STEEP on Switch.
Umm...ok? And sorry, but card games are best played with actual cards. Wouldn't this be more like Barbie mashing faces with G.I. Joe?
Stupidly overpriced at AU$7.50 for a mere bloody re-skin of some cards and a few effects that could have been programmed in the course of an afternoon. You could buy entire games for that amount of money.
It's also extremely scummy of Ubisoft to re-release Uno as a "new" piece of software (separate to the 2017 release) by removing the theme decks and selling them separately when they were all included by default in the original (i.e. Just Dance 2017, Rayman, Rabbids), making this is a more expensive release overall.
Get this: they removed the Just Dance 2017 deck from this new release so they could sell it to suckers separately in 2020. They didn't even bother to update the deck or think to include a new theme deck that matches the dancers/artwork in the 2020/2021 installments of Just Dance. That is how ridiculous their greed is.
Damn. I really wanted uno armor.
Wow. I’ve been teetering on possibly picking up Uno. I think this pushes me over the edge! And yes, this IS sarcasm. 🤪
Ubisoft played their Reverse card.
Maybe Unisoft are the new Nintendo.
