Ubisoft is giving away Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag for free to PC players

Ubisoft is giving away two free games for PC players this holiday season in celebration of two special anniversaries. Players will be able to pick up Assasssin’s Creed IV: Black Flag and World in Conflict for free through Uplay (via UbiBlog).

To celebrate World of Conflict’s 10th anniversary, from December 4 through December 11 (2AM PST) you can download it and its expansion (Soviet Assault) for free. To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the first Assassin’s Creed game, from December 12 (6AM PST) through December 18 (2AM PST) you can get Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag for free. So long as each game is downloaded during those time periods, they are yours to keep and play whenever you want.

“Developed by Ubisoft Massive, World in Conflict is an RTS set in an alternative history in which the Soviet Union invades the United States in the late 1980s. You play the role of an American commander tasked with marshaling air and ground units in skirmishes ranging across the U.S. (and into the U.S.S.R. in the Soviet Assault expansion). Learn the strengths and weaknesses of your armies, then leverage them as you wage war on destructible battlefields in the solo campaign or in online multiplayer.

In Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag, you are Edward Kenway, a pirate out to make a name for himself on the tumultuous Caribbean seas by sailing your ship among the isles in search of plunder, attacking enemy vessels, and diving below the waves for lost treasures. Become embroiled in the conflicts of the era and discover your connection to the series’ age-old struggle between the Assassins and the Templars.”

Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag is usually regarded as one of the stronger games in the series, so be sure to pick it up for free when you have the chance.
