Ubisoft has confirmed that its Uplay service will be available on both PlayStation 4 and Xbox One when the new platforms launch this November.
Compatible with titles such as Watch Dogs, The Crew, and Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, the latest version brings a number of updates to the table.
These include an improved interface and better overall integration. It will also work in tandem with a variety of companion apps Ubisoft are launching for upcoming titles including The Crew.
For those already using the service on PS3 and Xbox 360, the transition to Uplay on next-gen platforms is as simple as entering and confirming your existing PSN/XBL account.
Though there seems to be a bigger focus on stat-tracking and social interactions, Uplay will still feature an in-game reward system. Basically, through completing set achievement, you will unlock Uplay points which can be used with any compatible title to unlock small pieces of DLC (i.e weapons, stat boosts, wallpapers).
Ubisoft will also be running a programme in which they scout out their most dedicated players. Those selected will be entitled to special rewards and can even gain access to VIP events.

Only notable experience I have with uplay on ps3 is it locking me out of the single player campaign on far cry 3 when the server went down.
I would rather have a game that worked than drm and uplay points
