How Do I Get My Activation Key for Ubisoft?

Don't let the absence of an activation key or any other additional key interrupt your gaming experience. You can locate the key for your game title in the Ubisoft Connect PC. As for the extra keys, navigate your account information found on your application at the top-right corner. If you have trouble locating any of the required keys, you can always contact support through the web page.

It is sometimes anticlimactic and frustrating when you want to begin your gaming session, and you get asked for an activation key, worse if you are in the middle of a session. Most games require an activation key before you can play. There is no need to worry when that happens. The keys protect you and the game developers from fraud and piracy. Only the original developers have the keys to unlock the games.

All you need to do is get the required key, copy it, and paste on the game when prompted and continue your session without any hassle. The two types of keys available are the main game key, which activates the main game, and the additional keys that the game may prompt. You can locate both types within the Ubisoft Connect PC. The process below shows how you can get your activation key for Ubisoft.

How to Find the Key for the Main Game

Step 1: Choose the Games tab to access the pool of games available. This will direct you to all titles, and you can look for the game you want the activation key for.

Step 2: Select the title you want to get the key for. Note that the keys aren't interchangeable.

Step 3: On the left-hand side of the screen, under the tile, click on the option "show key." The choice is just under Play or Download.

Select the key to copy so that you can paste it into your game when prompted.

How to Find Additional Keys

Some games require other keys in addition to the activation key to the main game. A game may prompt you for a key to unlock levels or upgrade. The process of finding additional keys is also a simple, as follows:
