Ubisoft Delays Assassin's Creed Shadows to February 2025 After Cancelling Tokyo Game Show Appearance and Press Previews

Coming here after further developments.

We are departing from the traditional Season Pass model. All players will be able to enjoy the game at the same time on February 14 and those who preorder the game will be granted the first expansion for free.

I still lack trust in Ubisoft as a publisher to not have its shareholders grip the wheel at all times (businesses get absolutely rotted by this, please understand that 'sustainable' is not a word in these people's lexicon) but this could represent a change in paradigm for Ubi at the very least if the new AC does well compared to SW: Outlaws.

Guillemot still seems insistent on keeping with the live service/season pass scheme, but hopefully, hopefully, the huge dip in revenue when they drop the next slop title will clue them in that they're doing it wrong.

Ubisoft, just sell yourself to MS. Misery loves company and your games are budget bin material ergo they work fine on Game Pass.

Youre lost and have been lost for many years now. Corporate approach to creative products is not gonna fly.

Guillemot is the brain behind the fact all ubisoft titles share a featureset. He said and I quote, "If players like what we offer, we will simply give them more of it" and with that quote the yearly installments and season passes started proper.

This isnt gonna change anytime soon. They cant help themselves anymore.
