Digital distribution service Uplay 4.0 coming to PC, next-gen consoles with Twitch integration

Assassin’s Creed and Watch Dogs publisher and developer Ubisoft today announced the latest version of its sometimes-controversial digital distribution service, Uplay, is coming to PCs next month, and it will enable users to broadcast in-game footage using video platform Twitch.

Ubisoft says Uplay 4.0 PC has an improved download manager with autopatching and progressive downloading, which enables you to play a game before the download finishes. It also has a new social wall, where members can stay up-to-date on their friends’ activities.
