Rainbow Six Siege will not become playable on Valve's Steam Deck as the team doubles up on anti-cheat tools.

      There isn’t a single one of my favorite games made by ubi… and ubisoft is half the reason for that.

          Well… good news is you can get a slew of Rayman on GOG, which is drm free… so run it anywhere you like. :)

        Same with Ghost Recon Wildlands and Breakpoint…

        Regrettably Anno is Ubisoft. Love that game so much.

            Already got them all! 1800 is my favourite and I’m itching to play 117 but I can wait.

    Ubisoft should shut down their entire company, nothing of value would be lost.

    Siege has been sort of dead for awhile (its certainly not growing players), so nothing of value was lost.

    Ironically, their anticheat also isn’t worth much.

    Ubisoft is a weird one. I like their open world games (not that hard, so long as I like the premise for a specific one, it’s more of the same) and they seem to want their games running everywhere! Except sometimes. Here’s the latest example, but conversely a few months ago Motorfest stopped being announced anti cheat pita and just worked. Always have to check protondb before getting one… oh! And then there’s Starlink, which works on Linux but, lol, hates virtualization tech so on Windows it’s either that not running, or Windows complaining about lowered security. Lovely.
