Assassin's Creed Shadows transports players to the enchanting yet tumultuous era of feudal Japan, where intrigue and samurai clashes dominate the landscape. Mark your calendars for the game's premiere on March 20, 2025, available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.
Renowned insider Tom Henderson has provided deeper insights into the reasons behind the delay of Assassin's Creed Shadows to 2025. The postponement aims to correct historical and cultural inaccuracies and enhance the overall polish of the game. Despite rampant rumors, Yasuke will not be removed from the storyline, but Ubisoft plans to refine certain aspects of his narrative.
Several factors have contributed to the challenges faced by Shadows. Notably, historical experts were consulted relatively late in the development process, and there were significant misunderstandings among the team members.
From a technical standpoint, the game is not yet ready for release. The development team is diligently working on bug fixes and gameplay adjustments, though the latter will require more time to implement effectively. Henderson's sources are confident that Assassin's Creed Shadows will hit the shelves on February 14, as the developers have sufficient time to finalize the game.
