This story is being continuously updated…. New updates are being added at the bottom…..

Just in case you’re trying to get your head around why Uplay isn’t working for you, find solace in the fact that you aren’t the only one facing issues lately. For quick reminder, few hours back Ubisoft officially acknowledged a connectivity issue with Uplay PC, and in some time called the same as fixed.

But looks like despite calling the problem being fixed, users are still facing connection issues and say they aren’t able to login or sign in. Here are some reports from Twitter for you to take a quick glance:
