    how to use STEAM launcher when bought from UPLAY?

    I've added the game manually on Steam but it doesn't work , anyone have made it work?
    just trying to play with my friends list on Steam instead of going trough Uplay only ... YES I know we still need Uplay as launcher but is there any way to have it on Steam also

    Go to your steam library and press the Add a Game button then it should be something like "add a unknow steam game". It should open a new window where you can see all your installed software try to find rainbow six siege if you cant find it go to the path and select the .exe file

    i hope this helps you a little bit

    Locate your game's installation folder (e.g. E:\Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege)

    Find the RainbowSix.exe within the folder. (You can direct steam to this or have a custom Tag for the game below)

    Right click on the .exe and select "Create Shortcut". Locate the new shortcut and rename it to whatever suits you. "Rainbow Six - Siege"

    Direct steam to this new shortcut through "add non-steam game".

    Unfortunately you can't use steam friend list, you can launch the game through steam, but you can't use steam friend list ingame.

    ^^^

    You can't actually invite and join via steam. You need to add them to your uPlay friends list.
