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 a 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.
