The next big game from Ubisoft is being delayed once more.
According to a statement issued on Thursday, Ubisoft has announced that the release date for Assassin’s Creed Shadows has been pushed back from its original November 2024 launch to March 20, 2025. The game was initially delayed once before, moving from its initial launch in February 2025, in order to ensure a higher quality experience by providing additional polishing time.
Yves Guillemot, CEO of Ubisoft, has announced that the game delay was made to ensure the development teams have ample time to create the “most expansive Assassin’s Creed series masterpiece.” He explained that by granting an additional month for Shadows’ development, they can effectively incorporate player feedback from the past three months and deliver on the game’s full potential, ending the year with a successful release.
Ubisoft continues to face financial struggles
The second setback occurs as Ubisoft experiences difficulties, attributing the poor performance of games such as Star Wars Outlaws to these struggles. Towards the end of the year, Ubisoft disclosed that it would cease supporting its free-to-play shooter XDefiant starting in June 2025, and subsequently closed down its studios in San Francisco, Sydney, and Osaka following the dismissal of approximately 277 employees.
As a passionate fan, I’m excitedly following the news that Ubisoft’s leadership is considering the possibility of selling the company. The visionary Guillemot has mentioned that they’ve brought on advisors to help them explore diverse strategic and financial options, all aimed at maximizing the value of our beloved Ubisoft assets.
Previous speculations suggested a potential takeover of Ubisoft by the Guillemot family, founders, in collaboration with the massive Chinese conglomerate, Tencent.
