Official Ubisoft delays Assassin's Creed Shadows

With how poorly Outlaws launched, it seems like they're either focusing on improving quality or hoping that a delay will help them distance the game from any controversy.

Hard to say for sure. But they really do need this game to be a huge success.
 
I'm honestly surprised, since I can't remember the last time a main Assassin's Creed game didn’t come out around October or November.

Now that it's delayed to 2025, it's definitely going to be compared to Ghost of Yōtei, so... yeah, good luck, Ubisoft.
