Assassin's Creed Shadows

After a couple of delays, the Assassin’s Creed game set in feudal Japan that fans have waited years for is finally launching later this month. However, new details continue to emerge as its release draws nearer.

Taking to Twitter, for instance, Ubisoft has also revealed the exact global release timings for Assassin’s Creed Shadows. It will unlock at midnight local time on March 20th worldwide for consoles.

Meanwhile, on Steam, it’s getting a simultaneous global release, which means it’ll unlock for everyone at the same time – 9 PM PDT on March 19 or 12 AM EDT / 4 AM GMT / 1 PM JST on March 20. Check out the tweet below for full details, including the game’s Ubisoft Connect release on PC and its Mac version.
