Ubisoft's Uplay social gaming platform coming to PS4 and Xbox One

Ubisoft's Uplay has a mixed reputation; while it brings rewards and social elements to games, it's also known for its internet-based copy protection and occasional security risks. However much you like the service, it's sticking around -- Ubisoft has confirmed that Uplay is coming to both the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. The "full scope" of the service's features will be available in the company's games for both platforms, including launch titles like Assassin's Creed 4 and Watch Dogs. Whether or not that includes copy protection isn't clear, however; there's no word of any DRM beyond what's built into the consoles. We've reached out to Ubisoft for clarification, and we'll let you know if it sheds more light on the subject.
