**Ubisoft is bringing ‘Far Cry 6’ and three other recent games to Steam**
Ubisoft is about to bring another handful of games to Steam in the coming months. As spotted by _PC Gamer_ (https://www.pcgamer.com/four-more-ubisoft-games-are-headed-to-steam-this-summer/), _Far Cry 6_, _Riders Republic_, _Rainbow Six Extraction_ and _Monopoly Madness_ will arrive on the storefront on May 11th, June 8th, June 15th and June 22nd, respectively. On PC, all four games are currently only available through the Epic Games Store and Ubisoft’s own Connect marketplace.
Following a three-year absence from the platform, Ubisoft began releasing its games on Steam again (https://www.engadget.com/ubisoft-steam-assassins-creed-valhalla-204102571.html) in the winter of 2022. The first batch of titles included _Assassin’s Creed Valhalla_ and _Anno 1800_. At the start of 2023, the company then released _The Division 2_ and _Watch Dogs: Legion,_ among a handful of other titles that were previously unavailable on Steam. When Ubisoft left the storefront in 2019, it said the decision led to pre-orders for _The Division 2_increasing by six times (https://www.engadget.com/2019-02-15-ubisoft-steam-epic-division-two-sales.html) on its own storefront (where Ubisoft did not have to pay Valve’s up to 30 percent cut of sales). As for the company’s decision to return to Steam, Ubisoft has only said it’s “constantly evaluating how to bring our games to different audiences wherever they are,” a statement that suggests the size of Valve’s userbase may outweigh the value of sharing a smaller portion of sales with a partner like Epic.
