Ubisoft has confirmed that Assassin's Creed Shadows players on Steam won't have to install the Ubisoft Connect Launcher to play the game. This will be great news for gamers who like all their games to be in one place, although there is still a small catch for Assassin's Creed Shadows.

Assassin's Creed Shadows will be Steam Deck compatible and fully Verified at launch after all, Ubisoft has confirmed. This is a pretty big 180 from Ubisoft, which just weeks ago said in no uncertain terms that Assassin's Creed Shadows wouldn't be Steam Deck compatible at launch due to the mobile hardware's technical limitations.
