Why is Far Cry 6 not on Steam?
Far Cry 6 isn't on Steam because Ubisoft chooses to release some of its games exclusively on its own platform, Ubisoft Connect, and sometimes on the Epic Games Store as part of a strategic move to maximize profits and control the distribution of its games. It's all about business strategy and steering gamers towards their ecosystem.

Ubisoft just loves to play hard to get. They want you to visit their own house, Ubisoft Connect, or maybe drop by Epic Games Store for tea. Steam? Maybe not for Far Cry 6; they're keeping that adventure in the family.
Ubisoft and Steam had a bit of a 'it's not you, it's me' situation. Far Cry 6 ended up being exclusive to Ubisoft Connect and Epic because Ubisoft prefers it that way. Simple as that.
Actually, it's more like Ubisoft's trying to avoid Steam's cut on game sales. More money in their pocket if you buy directly from Ubisoft Connect or even Epic Games Store.
