Video games are an art form, and Photomode lets you flex your own artistic muscles by capturing the beauty of Ubisoft’s worlds. Whether you’ve created the perfect shot of an assassination by Naoe or Yasuke in Assassin’s Creed Shadows, the expansive beauty of a galaxy in Star Wars Outlaws, or a wild trick on the slopes in Riders Republic, we invite you to submit your creations in Ubisoft’s third annual Photomode contest, running July 1-15.
To be eligible for consideration, all Photomode entries must be composed entirely in-game. That means no editing once you’ve taken the shot, but Ubisoft games offer ample composition options with in-game Photomode, including contrast, color, filters, unique angles, and many more. Additionally, all entries must be at least 1920×1080 pixels.
To enter, you can post up to four Photomode creations on Instagram or X (formerly Twitter), tagging @Ubisoft, and using the hashtag #UbisoftPhotomodeContest. This year’s jury panel consists of four experts within Ubisoft, including Jean Guesdon, Strategic Visualization Director at Ubisoft Montreal; Shauna Jones, Community Manager, Consumer Interaction / Virtual Photographer at Ubisoft Newcastle; Tom Isaksen, Character Director at Ubisoft Paris; and Pierre Espaignet, Lead Lighting Artist at Ubisoft Bordeaux.
Ten winners will be announced on August 1. The first-place winner will be invited to Ubisoft Montreal for a studio tour, while from the second to the tenth place winners will receive a one-year subscription to Ubisoft+ Premium. Additionally, some winners will have their work displayed at the Mutek Festival in Montreal from August 15-30.
