Having revealed that the servers supporting the DRM-locked II have been under assault as part of a deliberate attack over the last couple of days, reveal that having beaten the assailants their servers are once again being attacked.

The assaults prevent normal players from accessing their games, as well causing Ubisoft no end of grief, we assume.

"Our servers are under attack again," revealed a Ubisoft rep in a update.

"Some gamers are experiencing trouble signing in. We're working on it and will keep you posted."

Ubisoft are of course hugely apologetic over these ongoing issues.
