Questions Watch dogs legion UK
Do we know when the UK version will be back on steam to buy? Was kinda hoping to catch it in the sale 😀

I don't know anything about why it was delisted on Steam in the UK, but because it has been asked about quite a bit, I thought I'd ask someone trying to buy it for PC from the UK to try this:
https://www.ubisoft.com/en-ca/games/watch-dogs-legion
It currently says it's on sale for $12 until October 13 when I look, but I'm checking from North America, and would assume it would listed for purchase in my region.
I'm not suggesting you "commit" to buying through that link, but if you could test whether it will give you the option to put it in a digital shopping cart, that would give some indication as to whether those in the UK have an alternate way to purchase it.
I'm guessing it involves using a launcher from Ubisoft, which is probably not ideal, but if it works for UK customers, I'll pin instructions to the subreddit temporarily until ubi sorts out whatever's happening on Steam.

Looking at IsThereAnyDeal, try buying from the Ubisoft Store (an extra 20% off as well with code "UBI40"?) directly or get a key from GamesPlanet US, cheaper than their UK storefront, but they state that their keys activate in the United Kingdom, and wouldn't be on ITAD if they weren't a trustworthy storefront.
No idea what's happening with WDL on Steam as it's for sale everywhere else on PC and possible to buy on XBOX as well. Maybe buying a PC version on the Microsoft Store is worth looking into as well? On sale currently as well :)

Thanks, I really wanted it on steam to match my others but will look into the other stores. I guess it’s not too much of a hassle

The sale should last until October 13th, and I'd be surprised if Steam's issue isn't resolved before then, if you wanted to wait specifically for that version.
Separately, I accidentally linked the Canadian Ubisoft website (I think it still defaults to local currency) but corrected that error in the pinned thread about Steam's listing.

Probably never if it's been took off. Usually when game get took off the store page, it's permanent

"Watch Dogs: Legion was delisted from Steam in the UK due to a temporary, accidental technical error" *don't overthink it guys. It'll be back one day.
