Rayman Legends, a critically acclaimed platformer game developed by Ubisoft, was initially released in 2013 to great fanfare. However, one of the major drawbacks for some players was the requirement to use Uplay, Ubisoft's digital distribution and online gaming platform, to play the game. Uplay, while offering some benefits like achievements and online multiplayer, also raised concerns about digital rights management (DRM) and the potential for intrusive online requirements.
