This is just horrifying.

Ubisoft CONFIRMS they will delete your account & purchased games if you go inactive for too long!!!

Ubisoft… WTF?! Another example of why I’m becoming more & more concerned with the death of physical games.

      If a game you own on steam also requires you to sign into an Ubi account it might? Maybe you’d need to create a new Ubisoft account again? Idk im just guessing a possible answer to that. It’s a good question.

        Ubisoft might tell you that the game is already registered and won’t let you register it again, even with a new Ubi account. I would assume the scenario where the customer gets screwed is the default.

          Oh absolutely that would happen.
          Let’s throw in some surprise missing DLCs for good measure.

      There’s a post below that says you can’t launch the game when the associated Ubisoft account is deleted. You can’t associate a new Ubisoft account.
