Origin is now the "EA App" and Uplay is now "Ubisoft Connect"

They can't even keep consistent branding.

It's kind of funny. I feel that the rebranding was because those launchers sucked ( a common marketing tactic.) The thing is though, the EA App still sucks so it doesn't do anything for its reputation.
