It’s a bummer to see Assassin's Creed Shadows delayed again, but if it means a polished experience in Feudal Japan, I’m all for it. Fingers crossed the extra time leads to some epic environments and storytelling that truly captures that rich cultural backdrop

Ah, another delay in the Assassin's Creed franchise—it's becoming a common theme, huh On the bright side, the extra time could mean an even richer experience in Feudal Japan, so hopefully, it’ll be worth the wait
