Assassin’s Creed: Shadows postponed until February 15, 2025.

Ubisoft has announced that Assassin’s Creed Shadows, originally scheduled for a November 15 release, has been delayed to February 14, 2025. Despite being in a “feature complete” state, the decision to postpone the Japan-set action-adventure game came after the underwhelming launch of Star Wars Outlaws. Ubisoft plans to use the extra time to further polish the game and address player feedback. The company also revised its financial outlook for fiscal year 2024-25 due to the delay and the softer-than-expected performance of Star Wars Outlaws. Assassin’s Creed Shadows will feature dual protagonists, Naoe and Yasuke, offering distinct gameplay styles. Additionally, Ubisoft has dropped the Season Pass model following backlash from players and will now release the game day one on Steam, alongside Ubisoft Connect and the Epic Games Store.
