The negative news just keep on coming for Ubisoft as the company have announced their anticipated Assassin’s Creed title Assassin’s Creed Shadows has been delayed.
The game had been planned to launch on February 14, but has now been pushed back until March 20. This is in part due to player feedback obtained over the previous 3 months to provide an overall better experience for gamers.
The company released the following statement:
Dear players,
We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to our incredible fans and dedicated teams for your unwavering support since our announcement in September to further refine and polish Assassin’s Creed Shadows.
Since November, we’ve been thrilled to share our progress through gameplay overviews, and the overwhelming excitement has truly inspired us. Each week has brought valuable feedback from our community. While we’ve already made remarkable strides, we believe a few additional weeks are needed to implement that feedback and ensure an even more ambitious and engaging day-one experience.
Accordingly, the new release date is March 20, 2025. We remain committed to delivering a high-quality, immersive experience-fostered by ongoing dialogue between our players and development teams.
We know you’re eager to learn more about Assassin’s Creed Shadows, and we’re excited to share that more updates will be coming your way very soon!

Assassin’s Creed Shadows is in development for Xbox Series, Playstation 5, and PC.
