It is therefore clear that Ubisoft has not completely given up on the idea of in-game advertising and is at least continuing to test this possibility and possible player reactions. However, the reaction of the community in this direction was quite vigorous and clearly negative, so it is questionable whether the company will decide to fully implement this type of advertising at some point in the future.
