Growtopia, the popular sandbox MMO from Ubisoft, is seeing in the new year with a week-long event.
Catchily named UbiWeek, the event will consist of seven crossovers with a variety of games and franchises from Ubisoft’s well-stocked stable, including Assassin’s Creed, Rabbids, Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell, and more.
Speaking of the game itself, Growtopia is a distinctive sandbox game that sees players planting seeds to grow items, as well as completing quests, and creating their own worlds.
Between the 24th and the 30th of January seven Ubisoft franchises will take turns appearing in Growtopia, including Far Cry III: Blood Dragon, Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell , Assassin’s Creed, Rabbids, Immortal Fenyx Rising, Prince of Persia, and Brawlhalla.
Each crossover will have its own special thing. In Assassin’s Creed you’ll be able to play as Ezio, while in Rabbids you’ll have a Rabbid on your back, waving a plunger around and throwing an endless supply of spare plungers at your enemies.
For the day of Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell event, you will have the chance to fully transform your character into everyone’s favourite elite field operative, Sam Fisher. With this iconic outfit, you’ll be the sneakiest agent in all of Growtopia.
The Prince of Persia crossover will be even more comprehensive, turning your world into a Growtopia version of The Sands of Time’s exotic locations, complete with deadly spikes and parallax scrolling.
The Far Cry III: Blood Dragon event will equip you with a pet. Not a cat. Not a dog. Not a tortoise. A Blood Dragon, with the fearsome ability to shoot lasers from its eyes as it follows on your heels.
During the Immortal Fenyx Rising crossover you’ll have the Wings of Daidalos on your back – and throughout the Brawlhalla event there will be a gigantic battle hammer in your hand, or a pair of silver gauntlets, depending on the transformation path you choose: Bödvar or Val.
Either way, the UbiWeek event looks like a blast, mixing things up for seven glorious days with a range of different tweaks to Growtopia’s gameplay and aesthetics.
You can download Growtopia for free right now on the App Store and Google Play.
