Assassin’s Creed Liberation is getting delisted

Assassin’s Creed: Liberation HD ‘Decomissioned’ From Steam But Will Remain Playable To Owners, According To Ubisoft.

Ubisoft has removed Assassin’s Creed: Liberation HD from Steam as part of a larger online “decommissioning” of several of its titles, most notably on PC. What alarmed owners of the game was a notice by Ubisoft implying that those who purchased it would still lose access in September. Ubisoft has clarified that will not be the case.

“As stated in our support article, only DLCs and online features will be affected by the upcoming decommissioning. Current owners of those games will still be able to access, play or redownload them,” the publisher said in a statement to VG247.

“Our teams are working with our partners to update this information across all storefronts and are also assessing all available options for players who will be impacted when these games’ online services are decommissioned on September 1st, 2022. It has always been our intention to do everything in our power to allow those legacy titles to remain available in the best possible conditions for players, and this is what we are working towards.”

Originally released on the ill-fated Playstation Vita, Assassin’s Creed: Liberation is something of a cult classic in the series. It’s one of two games in the series to feature a black protagonist, and the only one without a male protagonist option. It also explores class and race in both thematic and mechanical ways, allowing hero Aveline access to different areas and conversations depending on which guise she takes on.
