Earlier today, some reports suggested that Ubisoft’s latest titles (Assassin’s Creed: Unity, Far Cry 4 and The Crew) were removed from Steam UK. Naturally, we thought this was a region thing, therefore we did not pay attention to them. However, the French company went ahead and removed those games from all regions. Yeap, while Far Cry 4 and Assassin’s Creed: Unity were previously available on Steam, they are currently nowhere to be found.
Ubisoft has not revealed the reasons behind this decision. Both of these titles are currently available via Uplay store, Ubisoft’s retail partners and other digital distributors.
And by other digital distributors, we’re referring to GamersGate and Origin.
Yeap, while this may shock you, Assassin’s Creed: Unity and Far Cry 4 are available via EA’s digital distribution service.
There must be something going on in the background, otherwise we seriously cannot understand Ubisoft’s decision, especially when Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag and Far Cry 3 are being sold via Valve’s distribution service.
Assassin’s Creed: Unity and Far Cry 4 release later this year!
UPDATE:
All of the above games are back on Steam!
