Assassin’s Creed Shadows Leaks Online a Month Before Official Release

Ubisoft confirms gameplay and copies of the game have surfaced online, calling the leaks 'regrettable' as developers finalize the title ahead of its March 20 launch.

  • Ubisoft's highly anticipated game, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, leaked online with gameplay footage and physical copies appearing on auction sites.
  • The leaks occurred ahead of the official release date, which is set for March 20, after two prior delays from November 2024 and February 2025.
  • Ubisoft expressed concern that the leaks could diminish player excitement and emphasized that the leaked content does not reflect the final quality of the game.
  • Preorders for the game are reportedly strong, comparable to those of Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, a major success in the franchise.
  • The game, set in medieval Japan, is seen as a critical release for Ubisoft as the company seeks to improve its financial standing following recent challenges.
