Safely transferring your Assassin’s Creed Odyssey save from Uplay to Steam
Not every player is loyal to Uplay. First, we buy the Uplay version of some toy at a low price, and then we begin to regret that we didn’t save a hundred or two rubles for the Steam version – we have to mess with, we’ll not be afraid of this word, poor Uplay. Resolved: buy the Steam version! But what to do with the saves left in the Jupe version? In this case, some players will replay the game from scratch. However, you can start transferring saves!
Today, players are most often engaged in transferring the saves of the Uplay version of Assassin’s Creed Odyssey to the Steam version – we will show an example on this game.
