Assassin’s Creed Shadows tipped for Switch 2 launch in December
Ubisoft has been a strong supporter of the Switch 2 early on, bringing Star Wars Outlaws Gold Edition to the console already. Now, a second AAA game is set to join it before the end of the year – Assassin's Creed Shadows.
Assassin's Creed Shadows launched on other platforms earlier this year and despite some controversy around certain portions of the game, it did review well and sell well across console platforms. Now, according to bilbil-kun on Dealabs, a leaker with a strong track record, retailers are now beginning to list Assassin's Creed Shadows for the Nintendo Switch 2, with a release date of December 5th 2025.
This release date has not yet been officially announced by either Nintendo or Ubisoft. There could potentially be another third-party focused Nintendo Direct stream before the end of the year to announce release dates exactly like this one.
Assassin's Creed Shadows for the Switch 2 is expected to cost €50, which is the same price as Star Wars Outlaws on the platform. Ubisoft appears to be looking to position itself in a strong position with Nintendo fans early on. Hopefully this level of Switch 2 support continues, as Nintendo's console continues to be the preferred handheld gaming platform.
KitGuru Says: Star Wars Outlaws looks really good and runs exceptionally well on the Switch 2 in my experience. I hope the same level of optimisation can be achieved with Assassin's Creed Shadows. There will be bonus points for a 40FPS mode.
