    Certain games get region locked in the UK. From my understanding it is to do with retailers like Game feeling undercut from Steam and other digital sellers.

    The fisrt game I know of it happening to was Saints Row The Third.

    You will see the game pop back up on Steam closer to release. I think it happened with Far Cry 3 as well.

    This is a much different situation. Its not just the UK that's had it removed. Its gone from every region now. Apparently there is something going on between Ubi and Valve. FC4, Assassins Creed Unity, and The Crew are all currently removed for purchase via Steam. Besides, all 3 of the upcoming major Ubi releases were already region/trade locked on Steam.

    This is the reply you get from Ubi support:

    "We are aware of the issue regarding Steam and the pre-orders and are currently working on a resolution. Updates will be provided on forums and support.ubi.com. Thank you very much for your patience."

    Games media on whats going on:

    Only can wait and see if you're a Steam pre-orderer or looking to get it via Steam.
