Maybe, not sure. But you can add it to your Steam Library afterwards anyways, but it will be a Non-Steam game (it will show up like that)

You will also have to have uPlay opened when you want to play it

Hey, I just activated my blades or bullets code and picked AC'S, I had to download some Uplay crap and I'm just about to download the game. It is asking me the location where I want the game saved. If I changed it to steamapps/common will it be in my steam library? 

My PC: i5 4690k===MSI GAMING 3===980TI===8GB-Corsair-Vangence-Pro-Series===H100i-GTX===EVGA G2 750W===Samsung 850evo m.2 boot drive===Samsung 250gb evo SSD===Seagate-Barracuda-1TB-HDD===NZXT-H440

It should. Once it's in the steamapps/common, go into steam and download the game again. It will recognize that the game files are already there and bam. Magic.

 

Edit: This is if the game is on Steam. If not, then you'll have to add it manually and it will show up as a non steam game.

i7 4790k | GTX 970 | 16GB

That's all you need to know. It's a beast.

I don't know what to think. I thought it might be a easy way of doing it. Anyway of doing it without keeping Uplay on my pc and I'll be happy. I have saved the file to steamapps which I don't think will be a problem. I will try adding it to steam library when it's done downloading.
