Assassin’s Creed Unity is FREE to Keep for a Limited Time

In Honor of the Notre Dame Cathedral Restoration

Ubisoft is giving away a copy of their 2014 Assassin’s Creed game ‘Unity’ for PC. This installment of the Assassin’s Creed series is set in France and even features a fairly detailed version the famed Notre Dame cathedral.

After fires have destroyed part of the historic church however, Ubisoft wants to help in promoting the campaign projects which seek to restore the site. This is one way of doing that, and is also encouraging users to donate as they have. In fact, the company has is pledging €500,000 for the restoration costs.

Although I don’t even know if individual user donations are even necessary since the cause is being championed by the richest in France anyway. So far, just the three richest families alone have pledged $700M in restoration costs.

If you feel charitable however, you might want to donate to causes that the church is supposed to be championing, such as helping the poor. Besides, the Vatican is worth several billion anyway.
