It seems Ubisoft is creating its own version of Steam Early Access. At Gamescom 2026, the publisher revealed a platform for players to check out in-development versions of certain games and provide feedback over an ongoing period.
The forum is known as The Player Council, and it's essentially a preview portal that allows for more direct contact between devs and their potential audience. "Participating players will be able to discover and weigh in on games at various stages of development, including new game concepts and prototypes as well as evolving experiences for existing games on PC," reads a press release.
