Olivia Monroe from 3 AM Talent was unfortunately banned on Twitch, allegedly by Ubisoft's claim, when doing an Assassin's Creed: Shadows sponsored stream.
3 AM Talent's Vtuber Olivia Monroe was unfortunately banned on Twitch after a copyright claim by Ubisoft when playing Assassin's Creed: Shadows (AC Shadows), which Ubisoft sponsored. The ban happened because of a misunderstanding between Olivia Monroe and Ubisoft regarding the stream time.
Olivia Monroe previously announced a partnered stream scheduled for March 18, 7 AM Pacific, for the release of AC Shadows. However, around one hour after she started the stream, Twitch banned her channel. While the reason was unclear, most regarded Ubisoft as the reason for the ban. This was because Olivia claimed that Ubisoft misread her approved stream time as 7 PM instead of 7 AM.
This alleged mistake by Ubisoft drew the ire of other streamers, particularly in the Vtuber community and Olivia Monroe fans. Fang Guu, another Vtuber affiliated with 3 AM Talent, stated to never work with Ubisoft after this misunderstanding debacle.
Another Vtuber, Shizu Eizoku, more commonly known as Banmin or GiveMePermabanned, also expressed her concern about the situation. She delivered her rant on her official X account, advising the reader never to accept a Ubisoft sponsorship unless they want to roll a gacha with a chance of getting their channel banned.
Ubisoft has not issued any statement regarding the situation when this article was published.
Assassin's Creed: Shadows was the latest entry in the Assassin's Creed franchise. The game is set in Feudal Japan in the Warring State Period. AC Shadows stars Yasuke, an African retainer of Nobunaga Oda and Naoe, a shinobi from the village of Iga. Check out GosuGamers' review of the game here.
Olivia Monroe has been unbanned after five hours since her ban on Twitch. While she is already back and streaming, she hasn't played Assassin's Creed: Shadows again after her return.
