I want it too! :( On Steam (or at least GOG)! :cry:

Bought a key for £45, better than £60

I don't mind the ubi launcher, it's the only one other than steam i will tolerate.

Since 90% of my games are on Steam, I don't see the point in getting it somewhere else. I use 3 computers at home, I want family sharing and in-home streaming that only Steam has. The only other store that has any reason to exist is GOG because they offer offline installers. All the rest of the launcher arsenal is just useless clutter with no useful feature whatsoever in my opinion.

So it's either Steam for me, or I'll obtain it through "other sources" while Ubisoft decides to launch a Steam version.

No doubt if it comes to steam i will buy it there and not bother with the ubi version, i did exactly the same with farcry6. But if i want to play a new game and it is ubi only, i will buy it there if it is the only way to play it. Ubi is not that bad, i don't even notice it, the other crap on ubi does not bother me, i just ignore it and just use it for launching whatever games i have on there.
