Also if you missed the news, no upcoming Ubisoft games will be coming out on Steam in the UK.

A Ubisoft spokesperson told PCGamesN that:

“We’ve been in discussions with Valve about Assassin’s Creed Unity but for the time being the game is not available via Steam in the UK…”

However this extends to all upcoming games, including The Crew, Assassin’s Creed Unity and Far Cry 4. Judging by the comments on PCGamesN’s article as well as PCGamer’s article they have all been pulled from all Steam storefronts worldwide.

Gamers wanting to buy any of these games will need to use Ubisoft’s own Uplay Shop, or find another digital distributor, these include GreenManGaming and GamersGate (not to be confused with #GamerGate) for the UK.

Expect to see Far Cry 4, on store shelves from the 18th November, The Crew from 2nd December and Assassin’s Creed Unity from 11th November all in 2014.

[UPDATE]

Far Cry 4, Assassin’s Creed Unity and The Crew are now all available on the UK Steam Store.
