game does not launch on steam deck

[=[DSG]= Lan Can't Aim]

It just says "Unable to detect Uplay installation."

Why does the store page say Playable?

you need to download the ubisoft app
(just look up "Ubisoft Uplay download")

Me too. It’s a shame, I was looking forward to it.

you can play on linux but you have to get uplay through the steam deck konsole its annoying but worth it

Look up 'Steam Deck: Ghost Recon - Breakpoint (and other old Uplay games) - Easy Five Minute Fix' on Youtube.

Follow the video, make sure you're on the stable Steam Deck branch, not Beta, or Families Beta.

I play Ghost Recon on the Steam Deck all the time, it runs well enough on high graphics but if you want 60+ you'll have to turn down the graphics a bit.

I do have Uplay installed with the same results.

You need to install ubisoft connect using protontricks
here's a guide https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/150pz62/how_do_i_run_assassins_creed_unity/
it was made explainig how to install AC unity but use it wit GR Breakpoint and it will work
or another method is using this launch options:
echo "%command%" | sed 's/GRB_vulkan.exe/UbisoftConnectInstaller.exe/' | sh
Log into you Ubisoft account

After you log in, you may get an "app is running" error in Steam, ignore it error and close the app via "Stop" in Steam

Remove the launch arguments and launch the game again
