Utkarsh Sai Sidhardh K (@Utkarsh_sai_K) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam I’ve purchased quite a few games through Steam and have supported many Ubisoft titles over the years. Gaming is something I rarely get time for, and I usually only play when I have a longer period to properly relax. That’s why this situation has been particularly overwhelming and disappointing. I currently can’t access games I’ve paid for, and it has also made me hesitant to purchase any more Ubisoft titles until this issue is resolved. I genuinely hope someone can help me get this sorted.

PaLM AI - $PALM (@palmaierc) reportedMajor Announcement - Fall 2026 This fall, our local AI harness that rivals everything else currently on the market, root, is going to be shipped as a software product over to @Steam. 1) Publishing the application on Steam will remove the need for a separate signature on the executable. 2) Steam has become the go-to for gaming & creativity related software tools, which goes hand-in-hand with root. 3) Wide accessibility. You acquire it once, and it is yours forever. The Steam Version will not support any cryptocurrency features and all sales revenue will be registered to the Web2 side of our business. It will also be restricted and controlled according to the Terms of Service of Steam and other agreements that the company may become liable to, including a refund policy. We will keep the community updated on the status of the publication. Expect it to happen within a few months. Thank you for your support.
