Activation key ( Steam/UPlay) PC

[theRigsby]

Did a required Activation key for extra content within the game come with the purchase (steam)
or is it not now required and these features are activated without the key ?
thanks

Link the Steam account to UPlay and it will be automatically activated.

I took a screenshot of my Steam receipt, submitted it to Uplay support and asked them to manually add the game to my Uplay library. Problem solved.

Although I only thought of this in desperation after a really long and unproductive dialogue with both them and Steam.

I gave up and asked for a refund. Shame because I really wanted to play.

there is no KEY needed at all anymore
(yes even on NEW INSTALLS )

that all changed years ago in the steam summer sale of 2015

after you install your game.... remove the Uplay launcher then DL the latest version of Uplay and install it ..restart steam and Uplay .. your game should auto activate

1) open task manager, (Win key + X) find the following process: UbisoftGameLauncher.exe, and end the process.

2) After that, go to add \ remove programs in your windows control panel

(press win key + X select apps and features .. look on the right side and select Programs and features) .

select uninstall UPlay and then exit once its done

3) Download and reinstall Uplay PC from https://uplay.ubi.com , as this will update the client to the latest version ..... then reboot your PC

4) Launch the game again.

If you are still having issues ,please contact Ubisoft Support Directly

also if you already activated your key it can not be used again .. so make sure your logging in to the same uPLAY ACCOUNT YOU REGISTERED YOUR GAME ON

CD KEYS CAN ONLY BE USED ONE TIME .. FROM THEN ON YOUR GAME IS BOUND TO THE UPLAY ACCOUNT YOU ACTIVATED YOUR GAME ON

STEAM WORKS THE EXACT SAME WAY .....

if your unsure what Uplay account you used .. you need to contact Ubisoft Support

also ALWAYS WRITE DOWN any and all e mails accounts and passwords you use when creating ANY ONLINE account ..i keep mine in a lil book in my desk , trust me it'll save you headaches in the future .

use two factor auth .. then the only way they can get your account is they need your Phone

also use STRONG passwords using letters caps and numbers and never reuse the same one with differing accounts
