Ubisoft has announced that the launch of Assassin’s Creed Shadowshis new release set in feudal Japan, has been delayed until February 14, 2025 As we have seen in a published statement on official social networks from Assassin’s Creed and a communication with shareholders del Publisher.
According to the developers, although the game is already complete in terms of features, the development team has decided to take more time to “polish the experience” and improve it based on player feedback. This unexpected change is due, as we read in the document for shareholders, to the lessons learned after the poor launch of Star Wars Outlaws
In Assassin’s Creed Shadowsplayers will experience the story through the eyes of two unique protagonists: Naoe and Yasuke, who will offer two very different playstyles. Not only has the inclusion of both protagon ists and their backgrounds drawn criticism from a section of the community, there is also criticism of the game’s source material in the local Japanese media.
Another important novelty mentioned in the communication is that Ubisoft has decided to abandon the traditional season pass model. Insteadplayers who pre-purchase the game will receive the first expansion for free. In addition, it has been confirmed that Assassin’s Creed Shadows will be available on Steam from day one, unlike Star Wars Outlaws, which currently does not have the game listed on the platform.
