Default Ubisoft is asking AC: Unity customers (+ families) to waive their rights to sue them

If you want to redeem your free game that is currently offered to season pass holders, you'll have to agree to a small caveat.

Quote:
You hereby irrevocably and unconditionally RELEASE, WAIVE, AND FOREVER DISCHARGE AND COVENANT NOT TO SUE Ubisoft Entertainment S.A., and each of its past, present and future divisions, parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors, successors and assigns, together with all of their respective past, present and future employees, officers, shareholders, directors and agents, and those who give recommendations, directions, or instructions or engage in risk evaluation or loss control activities regarding the Campaign (all for the purposes herein referred to as “Released Parties”) FROM ANY AND ALL LIABILITY TO YOU, your assigns, heirs, and next of kin FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, DEMANDS, CHARGES, LAWSUITS, DEBTS, DEFENSES, ACTIONS OR CAUSES OF ACTION, OBLIGATIONS, DAMAGES, LOSS OF SERVICE, COMPENSATION, PAIN AND SUFFERING, ATTORNEYS’ FEES, AND COST AND EXPENSES OF SUIT, KNOWN OR UNKNOWN, SUSPECTED OR UNSUSPECTED, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE PURCHASE, ACQUISITION, RENTAL, POSSESSION AND/OR USAGE, AND/OR THE INTENT TO PURCHASE, ACQUIRE, RENT, POSSESS AND/OR USE, THE ASSASSIN’S CREED UNITY VIDEO GAME AND/OR THE ASSASSIN’S CREED UNITY SEASON PASS ON ANY AND ALL PLATFORMS, AND/OR RELATED TO THE CAMPAIGN, WHETHER CAUSED BY THE NEGLIGENCE OF THE RELEASED PARTIES OR OTHERWISE.

Suddenly Templars don't seem so bad...

I'm glad I didn't purchase a season pass, now I still have the right to sue UbiSoft and other release parties,This does raise a question in my head (heads to random thoughts)

No, I think you would've had to purchase the season pass and NOT accepted the free game in order to sue. Without the purchase, you're going to have a tough time proving any loss/harm has occurred to you.

I currently fail to see how anyone could put forward a case to sue UbiSoft in regard to the release of assassins creed unity, unless the complaint was that it was an unfinished game but can you sue for somebody releasing a buggy game? Something tells me no

Well, it would most likely be under a breach of contract or false-advertising type claim, but regardless they obviously felt that someone could sue (or their lawyers did at least) and thus put the non-arbitration (etc.) clause in the TOS for their free game. And its not that someone could win a suit as much as bring one. Both are bad for business.
