Assassin’s Creed Shadows has been highly-anticipated for a long-time. The game is finally taking the franchise to Feudal Japan, something that players have wanted since the early days of Assassin’s Creed. Originally scheduled to release in November 2024, before receiving a three month delay following the “soft” performance and reception of Star Wars Outlaws.
This delay pushed the game to February 14th 2025, and in recent weeks we have seen developers unveil a lot more details as we are approaching release. Now, Assassin’s Creed Shadows will keep fans waiting a little longer to play the game, as Ubisoft has announced another small delay.
In the announcement on the Official Assassin Creed account on X (fka Twitter) here is what Executive Producer of the Assassin’s Creed series Marc-Alexis Côté said:
