Ubisoft’s open-world action RPG Assassin’s Creed Shadows has been delayed again, launching on March 20th instead of February 14th. While the developer specified it requires a few more weeks for additional polish, the rumored preview events are still happening.
Insider Gaming’s Tom Henderson reaffirmed this in a recent tweet and later reported that the embargo is January 23rd, 6 PM CET. However, media outlets and content creators can seemingly reveal their participation on January 16th. These previews were reportedly meant for late September last year but were cancelled before the game’s first delay announcement.
Launching for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC, Assassin’s Creed Shadows has received blog posts and gameplay snippets outlining stealth, combat and parkour. Details on the first expansion, Claws of Awaji, have also leaked courtesy of its Steam page. It introduces a new region, enemy types, skills, and gear, offering over ten hours of content. Head here for more details.
Despite the delay of Assassin’s Creed Shadows, the preview events are still going ahead for media and creators next week.
