Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed Shadows Leaks Early: What You Need to Know!

by

The problems persist for Ubisoft, as they’ve confirmed that the actual versions of Assassin’s Creed Shadows have already been dispatched before the game’s official launch date.

For quite some time, Assassin’s Creed has stood as a leading franchise for Ubisoft, with them consistently putting out decent new installments every few years. However, it seems that either due to fatigue or an abundance of competitors in the same genre, the anticipation for the upcoming game, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, has been more subdued than for previous games in the series.

As a gamer eagerly waiting for the new release, I can’t help but notice the missteps in the game’s marketing and the series of delays that have left me a bit worried. Now, it seems like Ubisoft is battling yet another flame just before its launch.

Approximately three weeks before its formal release, some players have already gotten hold of physical versions of Assassin’s Creed Shadows. Ubisoft has recognized the problem and cautioned players about potential spoilers due to leaked gameplay clips and unsolicited reviews appearing online.

Physical copies of Assassin’s Creed Shadows are in the wild

Over the past few days, many pictures have appeared on the internet showing players holding the game, and TheGamer has also reported instances of people offering copies for sale on platforms like Mercari. Additionally, complete cutscenes and extended gameplay clips have been shared elsewhere, but we won’t be providing links to them in this context.

Ubisoft has been making constant efforts to remove these posts, yet due to their extensive reach, it’s easy for anyone who wants to see them. However, the developers have warned against doing so.

Unfortunately, leaks occur and they can dampen the enthusiasm of gamers,” said Ubisoft in a public statement on X. “We humbly request that you consider others’ enjoyment and refrain from revealing any spoilers.

As a gamer eagerly waiting for the upcoming release, it seems like some folks can’t resist spilling the beans early. To ensure you get the full, unspoiled experience, Ubisoft suggests we all tread carefully, steer clear of potential spoilers, and stay tuned to their official channels for those exciting, officially-revealed surprises. Let’s keep the game’s secrets safe together!

Additionally, it’s important to note that since these physical game copies haven’t benefited from the adjustments due to recent delays, they may not reflect the ultimate quality of the game. The development team is still refining the game with patches before its release, and any footage you see online might not be a true representation of the final product’s quality.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows will officially debut on March 20, 2025. The version we’ve played has been hailed as boasting the finest stealth mechanics in the series by those who previewed it early. For those yet to get their hands on an early copy, the wait won’t be long before they can jump in and experience it for themselves!
