According to Ubisoft, Ubisoft cites the underperformance of its recent Star Wars Outlaws title as a factor in the decision. “Star Wars Outlaws,” released in August, did not meet sales expectations, prompting Ubisoft to reassess its release strategy. They said, that delayed was because of Ubisoft want to ensure that the ‘Shadows’ is the best version of the game ever.
The game was supposed to launch in November, but fans flocked to social media to voice their concerns over a possible postponement.
Another user commented, “I’m guessing that Ubisoft probably got scared by the Star Wars Outlaws reception, so they’re going to delay Assassin’s Creed Shadows until next year to make sure it’s in the best possible state.” Another user stated, “It’s going to get delayed.”
It is important to note that Assassin’s Creed Shadows will be available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S on November 15.
