Reviews surfaced last year indicating that among several titles in development at Ubisoft, one was poised to be a ground-up remake of the critically acclaimed 2013 title. Although that has yet to be formally confirmed, Ubisoft itself acknowledged earlier this year that it did indeed have multiple remakes in the works. Information might have surfaced regarding the potential release date of the remake.
According to a recent report by Insider Gaming’s Tom Henderson, the anticipation surrounding the remake’s release date may be unwarranted, as it appears to be further along in development than initially thought.
According to Henderson, the remake’s initial release date was slated for November 2025; however, the recent delay has shifted its launch to February of the following year, likely impacting the planned launch windows for other titles in the series as well? According to a recent report, Marc-Alexis Côté, vice president and government producer, sent an internal email to employees stating that the delay “could potentially impact the remainder of the company’s roadmap.”
Henderson suggests that the standalone multiplayer game may have a November 2025 release date, but it remains uncertain if this timeline has been revised. Meanwhile, previous reports suggested that the next major installment in the series, previously codenamed and rumored to be launching in 2026, is still on track for its anticipated release date. Even if the remake is delayed to 2026, it’s likely that its sequel would also suffer a setback.
