Ubisoft to Reveal Two Hours of Assassin's Creed Shadows Gameplay Tomorrow

During the upcoming livestream, fans will have the chance to watch the main protagonists, Naoe and Yasuke, as they embark on thrilling quests, explore the expansive Harima Province, and confront formidable adversaries. This stream will not only showcase the dynamic gameplay but also feature a Q&A session where the developers will delve into their creative process and vision for this latest installment in the series.

Set against the backdrop of feudal Japan, Assassin's Creed Shadows promises to immerse players in a world filled with samurai clashes and political intrigue. Mark your calendars for the game's release on March 20, 2025, available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.

Renowned insider Tom Henderson has shed light on the reasons behind the delay of Assassin's Creed Shadows to 2025. The postponement aims to address historical and cultural inaccuracies, as well as to enhance the game's overall polish. Contrary to some rumors, Yasuke will remain a central character, though Ubisoft plans to refine his storyline to better fit the game's narrative.

The challenges faced by Shadows are multifaceted. Historical consultants were involved later in the development process than initially planned, and there were significant communication issues among the development team. From a technical standpoint, the game is not yet ready for launch. The developers are currently focused on resolving bugs and making necessary adjustments to gameplay elements, which will take additional time. Despite these hurdles, Henderson's sources are confident that Assassin's Creed Shadows will be ready for release on February 14, giving the team sufficient time to complete their work.
