It seems that every single copy of the PC version of Assassin's Creed III bound for store shelves in the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg was being shipped in a single truck. And that truck has been stolen by criminals
Ubi are saying it won't affect launch but everyone who ordered a limited will be left high and dry.

It sucks for the victims and hopefully Ubi can work out something for those wanting their limited editions

Only thing they can do is destroy them. I mean, if Ubi is smart here, they have the serial code of every copy that was on the truck. Just, bam, disable them perma.

Then they did such a risky thing for literally nothing.

Did you read the full article?

Ubi have passed on all EAN's to retailers as stolen content and blocked all Serial keys in the online activation
