Ubisoft will close your account and remove your purchased games if it stays inactive for too long

Yikes....I haven't played a Ubi game in a while but I just installed their PC app to make sure my account was still active.

If a game isn't on Steam or PS5, I'll play something else. There's too many great games to accept a dogshit user experience.

It only applies to accounts with 0 games. Non-story.

I saw this on gaf and didn't see any people call that out, so I assumed the number of games you had didn't matter.

That's just the same Tweet from the first post.

Ubi officials, however, flatly insist whatever happened in Tor’s case isn’t normal and that it has never deleted any account that hasn’t been logged into in less than four years. The company also says any account that has a purchased game tied to it, would also not be up for closure at all.

 

Ubisoft has free games on their store, too, so it's not even like the Tweet is incompatible with the previously stated policy. Maybe the policy has changed, but I'm not going to take a random Ubisoft support tweet that's gone viral as evidence Ubisoft has stopped caring about EU laws.
