Ubisoft’s E3: Uplay Ambassadors get an all-expenses paid experience; 1,000 others can attend the Uplay Lounge

Ubisoft yesterday announced a contest that will bring Uplay members from around the world to E3 2014 in Los Angeles.

The winners, dubbed Uplay Ambassadors, will “receive the VIP treatment, including all-expenses paid travel, access to the E3 show floor, a ticket to the Ubisoft press conference and exclusive meetings with Ubisoft’s development teams,” Ubisoft said. Ten Ambassadors will be selected for their dedication to the Ubisoft brand, while two will win via contents.

Additionally, one thousand additional Uplay members will win an invite to the Uplay Lounge, a pop-up event being held at The Standard Hotel near E3 and the Los Angeles Convention Centre.

Here’s how you can win the title of Uplay Ambassador:

  • The Uplay Fan Art Contest. Uplay members can show their talents by creating fan art based on their favorite Ubisoft titles. The jury for the contest is composed of members of Ubisoft’s Montpellier studio, and the winner will not only become an ambassador but also will have his or her art animated by the Montpellier team. This contest ends 30 April. More details are available here.
  • The Uplay Fan Video Contest. Participants can submit a video in one of three categories: Cosplayer, for creators with amazing costumes talents; Competitor, for the best speed-runners or most skilled players; and, Filmmaker, for fans who want to show off their filmmaking talents. This content ends 30 April. More details are available here.

One thousand Uplay Lounge invitations will be handed out from those who register at www.uplaylounge.com. During E3, that same website will host E3 content like “exclusive videos, photos and other surprises”, according to Ubisoft.
