Ubisoft Invites Former Subscribers Back to Shadowbane

Win-Back Program Turns on All Former Accounts Free for 15 Days

To celebrate the release of Shadowbane® Patch 5.0, A Call to Arms, Ubisoft is reactivating all former accounts in good standing for 15 days, absolutely free with no obligation. A Call to Arms patch is a new milestone for Shadowbane and includes the long-awaited introduction of the Alchemy System.

Running from April 26 through May 10, 2005, the Return to Shadowbane promotion will reactivate all accounts that have expired in good standing, allowing previous subscribers to play Shadowbane for another 15 days with no account obligations and no long-term commitments. These returning players will have access to their former characters, equipment, and wealth. After the 15 free days have passed, all reactivated Shadowbane accounts will immediately expire again, so users will not have to re-cancel or even say farewell. Additionally, anyone with already-canceled accounts or accounts set to expire after April 26 can continue to play free of charge until the end of the promotion on May 10.

"Between the recent expansion pack, Shadowbane: Throne of Oblivion, and our latest content update, A Call to Arms, Wolfpack has continued to strengthen the game's foundation and refine Shadowbane's core vision of allowing players to change the world," said Frank 'Kellion' Lucero, Shadowbane producer. "With several new systems going in, including long-awaited items like Stat Refinement, the Alchemy System, and Looking for Group and Guild flags, it will now be easier, more fun, and much more exciting to play Shadowbane than it was this time last year. This is a perfect time to try Shadowbane again!"

The Return to Shadowbane promotion officially begins on Tuesday, April 26. All reactivated users will receive a notice from our account management system containing the above information.
