Untoz Gaming can report a significant upcoming change for PC players who enjoy Ubisoft titles through Steam. The developer has unexpectedly revealed that its Connect application will no longer be a mandatory launch requirement for its games on Valve’s platform. Previously recognized as Uplay, Ubisoft Connect functions as the company’s dedicated game launcher and digital storefront, typically activating whenever a Ubisoft game is started from other platforms like Steam or the Epic Games Store.
This decision marks a shift in how players will access their favorite Ubisoft experiences, aiming for a more direct and less fragmented startup process. The publisher stated this move represents a foundational step towards delivering a more fluid and integrated launch experience for its player base.
This information comes from recent reporting by Eurogamer.net.
