Ubisoft Game Getting Delisted in December

Ubisoft has announced that Growtopia will be delisted from PC storefronts, including Steam and Ubisoft Connect, on December 1, 2026. The game first launched on mobile in 2013 before making its way to consoles and PC. In 2020, Ubisoft sunsetted its console versions.

Growtopia is an MMO with sandbox elements that allows players to build different worlds, collect rare items, grow crops, and trade with others. As one of the early MMO games on mobile, Growtopia gained massive popularity between 2015 and 2018, around the same time Ubisoft purchased it from its original creators.

Growtopia Will Leave Steam and Ubisoft Connect Soon

Ubisoft says it has decided to delist Growtopia from PC storefronts to focus on the game's mobile versions. Starting December 1, players will no longer be able to download the free-to-play MMO from Steam or Ubisoft Connect. However, the PC version will remain available for direct download through the game's official website. Ubisoft has also assured fans that their progress and in-game currencies will remain intact. Players can continue their adventures on mobile or through the PC client using the same account.

In the past few years, Growtopia has faced several glaring issues that have hurt its player base. For one, many argue that Ubisoft's acquisition of the game led to a sharp rise in aggressive microtransactions. Some players also complain that Ubisoft has refused to add new servers, leaving existing ones flooded with bots. On top of that, Growtopia is reportedly suffering from massive in-game inflation, making trading a painful part of the experience despite once being one of the game's main selling points.

Sadly, Growtopia has become one of the open-world games with mostly negative reviews on Steam. Players have posted several waves of negative reviews over the past few years, which may have contributed to Ubisoft's decision to delist the game. Some argue that the company wants to sweep these issues under the rug and focus on the mobile versions, which currently have moderately favorable reviews and likely attract larger player bases.

Whatever the reason, Growtopia is joining the list of games that are becoming harder to play. Ubisoft has recently faced multiple layoffs and studio closures and also plans to shut down several games, including Rainbow Six Mobile. As for Growtopia, it remains to be seen whether delisting its PC version from Steam and Ubisoft Connect will help improve the experience for remaining players. Ubisoft has presented the decision as a move that will benefit mobile players in the long run. However, only time will tell whether that proves to be true.
