It's a crapshoot to make Ubisoft games to work on Windows desktop PC already.

On one hand you have the shitty and/or DRM-plagued stores, on another you have DRM-free ones like GoG, Humble Bundle, Itch.io... which in my experience Just Work (tm) in a few clicks thanks to the likes of Lutris launcher/Proton/Wine.

(And in the middle, Steam(OS) to rule them all.)

P.S.: I've heard that Battle.net games also work easily and well, but I don't know how long this will last with Microsoft buying Activision-Blizzard and Valve ramping up their fight against Windows...
