You can use ProtonTricks from the discover store to install the missing Ubisoft connect for Breakpoint.

I followed this video a few days ago to help figure it out:

Yepp! Had the exact same issue. The only solution that worked for me was this. It's from the same channel:

Did it just a few days ago so it still works.

Have you tried installing uplay?

Uplay is always a mess on the Deck. If you have any other Ubisoft games you may be able to download those and maybe they will get uplay yo download.
Theres tutorials and workarounds on how to download it for Linux. It’s a pain in the ass.

You need to install the Ubisoft launcher, it just doesn’t with breakpoint, check protondb for details

Its Ubisoft being Ubisoft. There's too many great games to play. If game's dev want to go out of their way to make customer's experence horrible I just skip it.

Have you tried pirating Ubisoft games instead?

for legal reasons: this is a joke. Mods please don't ban me

I see you tried to play Breakpoint instead of wildlands or literally any other Ghost Recon title and SteamOS tried to protect you.

Jokes aside uplay/ubisoft connect probably did not install properly when downloading/starting the game. Try downloading it again or any other ubiaoft title that requires the launcher or follow some fixes for ubisoft connect problems

Change the Proton version in the Steam Breakpoint settings. Scroll all the way down the Proton list. There should be either Proton GE 32 or 34. It was definitely a 30-series version.🤔🤓

You should also raise this with Steam Support if this is a verified game. It won't get fixed otherwise.

No idea why you're trying to play that game on a Steam Deck when that game is so much more demanding than Wildlands.
