One of Ubisoft’s next entries in the Assassin’s Creed franchise is reportedly delayed. This time, it’s the mobile game set in China called Assassin’s Creed Jade.<\/p>\n
According to Reuters, the game was supposed to be released for iOS and Android sometime this year, but has since been delayed to 2025. It’s being co-developed by Level Infinite, and the delay is reportedly due to its parent company, Tencent, shifting its mobile strategy. The company now wants to focus more on smaller, easy-to-play games rather than large franchise ones from foreign companies.<\/p>\n
Tencent has recently become a prolific developer in the mobile space. There is reportedly an Elden Ring mobile game<\/a> in development over at Tencent right now, but it’s seemingly going to be a while before we get to see it. Another Nier mobile game was reportedly canceled<\/a> due to Tencent being unable to figure out a way to monetize it. It was reportedly in development for two years before Tencent decided to cease working on it.<\/p>\n There are several other Assassin’s Creed games in the works right now, including Assassin’s Creed Infinity<\/a>–which will act as a hub for future games–as well as Codename Red, and Codename Hexe. These have not had any release dates announced.<\/p>\n
