Ubisoft & Safe In Our World Partner to Combat In-Game Toxicity

We’ve teamed up with global video game publisher Ubisoft to address disruptive and toxic behaviour in-game and provide tools to help players navigate it.

As part of this partnership, Safe In Our World and Ubisoft have co-developed the Good Game Playbook – a guide designed to provide players with knowledge and support with regards to experiencing in-game toxicity.

From November 2nd, the playbook will be provided to both players reporting disruptive behaviour as well as those being reported themselves. We aim to not only offer support to those affected by other’s behaviour, but also bring self-awareness to the players who may be causing harm. With this in mind, the guide encompasses information including self-care practices, understanding gameplay triggers, and understanding the weight of toxic behaviour in the wider community.

We hope that seeing companies like Ubisoft putting in place measures to combat toxicity in their games will encourage others to follow suit, creating a path for games developers to recognise their social responsibility and dedication to supporting their player base.

The playbook also points to additional resources on the Safe In Our World website, specifically looking at topics including stress, anger and additional helplines.

The Good Game Playbook will be automatically sent to players reporting or reported for disruptive behaviour in Rainbow Six Siege and For Honor. The Playbook is currently available in English and French, with the intention to translate to additional languages in the future.
