[QUOTE="Admin, post: 66108, member: 1"] [URL='https://www.ign.com/games/assassins-creed-shadows']Assassin's Creed Shadows[/URL] is expected to launch March 20, 2025, after [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/assassins-creed-shadows-delayed-to-february-2025']multiple[/URL] [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/assassins-creed-shadows-delayed-again-this-time-by-another-month']delays[/URL]. The most recent was only by a month, which doesn't seem like much time to change anything significant. So why did Ubisoft push the game? According to the game director: roofs. At a recent preview event for Shadows, we spoke with game director Charles Benoit, who confirmed that the month delay was "mostly about polishing" and did not change any big systems. The team did update "a couple of things in progression to make it more engaging, also balancing a bit more." But the main feature that needed extra tweaking was the parkour system, which Benoit says was running up against an obstacle unique to Feudal Japan. "The Japanese architecture, the roofs [are] super complex," he said. "Probably the most complex thing that I ever worked with if we compared to Odyssey and Syndicate. We needed specific codes and specific animations to support something super fluid, changing the transition of the parkour to make it even more fluid. So that's one of the specific feedback that we heard that we wanted to address, and it really improved since the last few months." Assassin's Creed Shadow was originally planned for release in November 2024, but was pushed to February 2025 and then again to March, with the company citing player feedback as a main reason for the delay.
