Singleplayer/Battleye
Any way to keep it singleplayer without battleye? I tried "-BattlEyeLauncher" as an argument, did nothing.

Better try it through Steam since you have Steam version of the game.

Hey there, thanks for contacting us.

Battleye is necessary to be able to launch the game, so there is no way to not use it.

Let us know if you have any more questions.

Are you adding it through Steam (properties - launch options) or Ubisoft Connect (properties - game launch arguments)?

I have Ubisoft Connect version of Legion, and '-BattlEyeLauncher' argument works if I add it through Ubisoft Connect or add it straight to WatchDogsLegion.exe file.

The question is WHY is it necessary to launch a single player game?

May I ask why we need spyware to launch a single player game? Or why the spyware isn't removed when the game is uninstalled?
