Ubisoft appears to be discounting more and more of its library by the week. People are getting multiple chances to pick up Far Cry 5 at a discount, but this weekend's deals go beyond that. The Ubisoft catalog is on sale across both Xbox and Nintendo platforms, with the latter offering up the digital edition of Starlink: Battle For Atlas. Keep in mind that Starlink's Spring update is on its way and Nintendo owners are set to receive additional Star Fox missions. So now might be a good time to jump in on that game while it's discounted.

Elsewhere, there's a big UFC card going down this weekend, one in which Jon Jones might not even get busted for illegal substances! That means Xbox is offering up a little something special for Xbox Live Gold members in the form of a free weekend for EA Sports UFC 3. It'll be free to play for the next three days, so give it a look and enjoy all the things you enjoy about UFC with none of the drug testing.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
