Ubisoft has announced that they are going to take the servers of Assassin’s Creed Unity offline in order to increase its server capacity after making the game free for one week.
Assassin’s Creed Unity originally launched for the PS4, Xbox One, and PC in November 2014. It faced a lot of backlash at launch because of the buggy nature of the game and it took Ubisoft some time to patch out the major issues, but it didn’t make the game free from most of the bugs even today.

It appears that after making this decision of giving away the game free, there has been an increase in the server load which is why the developers are taking down the servers offline in order to put them back up with more server capacity.
