It won’t be as convenient as playing directly on Steam, but it’s the best solution until Ubisoft decides to change its stance and cash-in on the popularity of the new console. If players are able to get the Epic Games Store to work on the Steam Deck, they shouldn’t have any problem playing Far Cry 6 on it.
This means it can run many different types of software, and users can install the Epic Games Store using online tutorials from channels like Gaming on Linux to get it to work. Luckily, the Steam Deck is more of a Linux-based PC shaped like a console, instead of a traditional console that’s locked to a specific software or vendor.
The Epic store also offers more favorable terms to publishers, giving them 88% and only taking 12%. One of the reasons given for the decision is because Steam keeps 30% of game sales, with 70% going to publishers. Ubisoft has moved away from Steam and published its latest titles like Far Cry 6 and Assassin’s Creed:Valhalla on its Ubisoft Store and the Epic Games Store instead. Many Ubisoft games aren’t on Steam, so players must find a different way to access them on the Steam Deck.
