Title: Uplay not connecting

Does anybody else have a problem with using Uplay with Proton/Steam recently.

When Uplay is executed it fails after I put it the username and password. It says that server is not reachable.

It may also have to do with a fact it updates uplay on start (tried on Rayman and AC Odyssey.

Thanks for your help.

P.S. Same result on Bottles.

I have the same issue.

I can only give you a workaround so far. Install a vpn client, like proton vpn and start the game with an active vpn connection.

Stoppos, thank you.

Yes, I used my work VPN and it connected and started as expected. Very interesting.

It is also working on Windows 11 which I still have for just in case uses and it connected without a problem as well.
