Ubisoft tried that with their newer games. It didn't work. I can't imagine it would work even if they took every single title of Steam that they could. All that would do is make those games not sell.

Ubisoft doesn't own one of the top three games console, and the most sold desktop operating system in history.

  • Ubisoft made games people wanted to play. It's not a ton of leverage, but more than you can say for Microsoft studios.

    What can Microsoft even threaten? No more Fallout 76 and Halo Infinite? Linux is banned from Bedrock Edition? They'll re-cancel the Perfect Dark reboot? Every punishment I try to imagine is like death-by-pillow-fighting.
