Ubisoft Delays Assassin's Creed Shadows Release Again to March 2025

The delay comes as Ubisoft seeks to refine gameplay based on player feedback and explores strategic options including a potential company sale.

  • Assassin's Creed Shadows, originally set for November 2024, has been delayed for the second time, now scheduled for March 20, 2025.
  • Ubisoft cites the need for additional development time to incorporate player feedback and ensure a polished launch experience.
  • The company is facing financial pressures following underwhelming sales of recent titles like Star Wars Outlaws and the discontinuation of XDefiant.
  • Ubisoft has appointed advisors to explore strategic and capitalistic options, including a potential buyout or restructuring of the company.
  • The delay positions Shadows away from a crowded February release window, potentially improving its commercial prospects.
