Ubisoft has dropped a short teaser for Assassin’s Creed Shadows, reiterating the game’s scheduled launch date of February 14, 2025. This comes after an earlier delay pushed the release from 2024. The new teaser suggests Ubisoft is committed to the 2025 date, as promotional material wouldn’t typically be released if another delay were imminent.
The teaser itself doesn’t reveal any new gameplay or story details. Clocking in at only a few seconds, its primary function seems to be building anticipation among fans. You can view the teaser on the official Assassin’s Creed X account here.
While the 2025 release date appears locked in, there’s no word on when we can expect a full trailer. Previous trailers have showcased gameplay and the game’s Japanese setting. A story trailer is noticeably absent, potentially due to the controversy surrounding one of the game’s protagonists, Yasuke. Whether Ubisoft chooses to release a story trailer focusing on this character remains to be seen.
Assassin’s Creed Shadows is slated for a global release on February 14, 2025, across multiple platforms, including Amazon Luna, PC, PS5, PS5 Pro, Xbox Series S, and Xbox Series X. Stay tuned for more updates on Assassin’s Creed Shadows news, rumors, leaks, and speculation.
For those unfamiliar with the game’s premise, the official description paints a picture of feudal Japan steeped in chaos. Players will embody both a deadly shinobi Assassin and a legendary samurai, exploring a vibrant open world. The narrative focuses on two unlikely allies with intertwined destinies, offering players the chance to master complementary playstyles. Building a shinobi league, customizing a hideout, and shaping a new era for Japan are all part of the experience.
