Ubisoft announces its PAX 2026 lineup
Ubisoft ANZ announced its lineup for PAX Aus 2026, featuring Rainbow Six Siege, Rayman Legends Retold, Heroes of Might & Magic III Remake and Just Dance, plus activities all weekend at the Ubisoft Community & Esports Stage, taking place in Melbourne from 9-11 October.
This year, the PAX Arena is transforming into the Ubisoft Community & Esports Stage, headlined by the Rainbow Six Siege APL OCE Stage Finals. From Friday to Sunday, four of Oceania's best teams will go head-to-head with a $40,000 Prize Pool and a spot at the highly anticipated Osaka Major in November on the line. The stage will also host activities open to all PAX attendees across the weekend, including an Assassin's Creed Sea Shanty Singalong, the Ubisoft Community Cosplay Runway, a Just Dance-Along, and a chance to take on Martin Copping, the voice of Aussie Operator Max "Mozzie" Goose, in a 1v1 Rainbow Six Siege match. Check the PAX schedule for more information on what’s happening at the Ubisoft Community & Esports Stage and register your interest in taking on Martin Copping using this online form.
Ubisoft ANZ is also sharing three pre-launch demos for players to get hands-on with, including 2026 releases Rayman Legends Retold and Just Dance: Decade of Hits. Heroes of Might & Magic III: Remake will also be available exclusively on the Aftershock booth.
At the Quokka Theatre, Ubisoft ANZ is teaming up with Australia's leading variety gaming channel talk show 'Back Pocket' to bring audiences 'Back Pocket's Ubisoft PAX Prime' on Saturday, 11th October at 2:30PM. This will be a stage show like no other, with special guests Austin Creed and John Robertson joining the Back Pocket crew for an hour of games, giveaways, shenanigans, and a two-person horse costume, all in the name of celebrating video games!
PAX attendees have the chance to earn an Australia-exclusive Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced Pin by collecting stamps on a Ubisoft Stamp Rally Card. Limited pins are available each day, so players will need to act fast! Stamps can be earned at participating activities across the weekend, and all individuals who complete a Rally Card will also go in the draw to win a one-of-a-kind custom helmet inspired by Rainbow Six Siege Operator Mozzie. Head to the Ubisoft Community & Esports Stage to collect and redeem a Ubisoft Stamp Rally Card.
