Summary
- Uno players on Xbox can now enjoy online multiplayer thanks to a long-awaited fix from Ubisoft.
- Ubisoft has managed the Uno property well, with crossovers with its other IPs like Assassin's Creed and Far Cry.
- Ubisoft has also collaborated in crossovers with other card games, such as Assassin's Creed coming to Magic: the Gathering in July 2024.
An Uno player has discovered that Ubisoft has finally issued a fix for the game's multiplayer component after a couple of years of being unplayable online. This adaptation of Uno was rated fairly well when it released for the Xbox One and other platforms back in 2016, but loyal fans were disappointed that multiplayer hadn't been working properly for quite a while now.
This current iteration of Uno was developed by Ubisoft, comes free with Xbox systems, and is also the latest in a long line of various adaptations over the past decades. Microsoft and Gameloft have had a hand in developing previous versions for many different platforms, while the last version released was for the Switch in 2017. As a classic party game, a big part of the Uno experience is being able to play with actual people, whether local or online, which is why multiplayer is a crucial feature for the title. Uno fans have also largely praised the current version for bringing back voice and video chat functionality in online multiplayer after it had been scrapped in the Xbox 360 adaptation due to abuse by malicious players.

Uno Players on Xbox Can Now Enjoy Online Multiplayer
On r/gaming, Redditor N7_Hades shared their discovery that the Xbox Series and Xbox One versions of Uno finally have a functioning online multiplayer mode. Ubisoft released a quick fix for the game, and now online matchmaking works again, allowing players to get into sessions with real people. This looks to have been the same issue plaguing Uno on the Switch back in January 2023.
Fans will be overjoyed with this news, as Uno remains a pretty popular game across the world, whether in the digital realm or on paper with actual cards. For its part, Ubisoft has been managing the property well, with the best parts being its various crossovers with its other IPs such as Assassin's Creed and Far Cry. If nothing else, Uno will probably always remain a solid casual choice for those who need one.
Ubisoft has also collaborated in crossovers with other card games, such Assassin's Creed finally coming to Magic: the Gathering in July 2024 after initially being announced a few years ago. This set, part of the game's controversial Universes Beyond initiative, will be composed of 100 cards and will be legal in its Modern organized play format, in addition to its eternal modes such as Commander and Legacy.
