Assassin’s Creed Codename Red, the next mainline title in Ubisoft’s series, is now officially Assassin’s Creed Shadows. A new cinematic trailer goes live tomorrow at 9 AM PST, but, in classic Ubisoft fashion, the release date has seemingly already leaked.
As pointed out by Andreix01 on Twitter, the YouTube description for the upcoming trailer indicates a launch on November 15th, 2024 (in French). That would be within Ubisoft’s timeline of launching within fiscal year 2025 and lends credence to reports of gameplay reveal at Ubisoft Forward on June 10th. Hands-on impressions from publications and content creators will reportedly go live on June 12th.
Though Ubisoft Store listing data seemingly indicated that the open-world action RPG is coming to PS4 alongside Xbox Series X/S, PS5 and PC, insider shinobi602 has since debunked this on Resetera. This would make Assassin’s Creed Shadows the first title in the franchise to launch exclusively on current-gen platforms. Stay tuned for more details and updates in the meantime.
