Assassin's Creed Shadows has been delayed again with the next entry in the behemoth series pushed back to March 20, 2025.

Assassin's Creed Shadows, set in 16th Century Japan, was due to be released last November before an initial delay to February 2025. Announcing the new release date of 20 March, executive producer Marc-Alexis Coté said a "few additional weeks are needed" to ensure the game's launch goes smoothly.

Ubisoft’s upcoming title, Assassins Creed Shadows, that was set to release in February 2025, has been delayed again and now scheduled for a late first-quarter release in March. This Assassins Creed Shadows delay isn’t the first.

Most wouldn't describe anything over a month long as "a few weeks", but regardless: Assassin's Creed Shadows' release date is now March 20th, 2025. This official statement appeals to player sentiment, but several people have spotted other reasons behind the delay, including a possible Tencent buyout.
