Assassin's Creed Shadows' release is shifted to March 2025. Ubisoft prioritizes incorporating player feedback to enhance the overall gameplay experience. This article delves into the reasons behind the delay and Ubisoft's future plans.
Ubisoft Prioritizes Player Engagement
Assassin's Creed Shadows' launch has been postponed again, now slated for March 20th, 2025. Ubisoft cites the need to integrate player feedback to deliver a superior, immersive experience. This marks the second delay; the initial 2024 release was first pushed to February 14th, 2025, and now further to March.
Ubisoft's official announcement on X (formerly Twitter) and Facebook explains that valuable community feedback has been received, and additional time is necessary to ensure a more engaging launch experience.
Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot reinforced the announcement, emphasizing the commitment to delivering the most ambitious Assassin's Creed title yet. The extra development time allows for better integration of player feedback, maximizing the game's potential.
The press release also revealed that Ubisoft has engaged advisors to explore strategic and financial options to optimize value for stakeholders. This restructuring aims to improve player experiences, operational efficiency, and overall value creation. This follows the underperformance of 2024 releases like Star Wars Outlaws and the premature closure of XDefiant.
While officially attributed to incorporating player feedback, some speculate the delay is a strategic response to the crowded February release schedule, which includes highly anticipated titles such as Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, Civilization VII, Avowed, and Monster Hunter Wilds. This postponement might position Assassin's Creed Shadows for greater visibility.
