Assassin’s Creed Delayed, GRAW2 Announced
October 24th, 2006 by Matt Stone in Business, Driving
Ubisoft released their quarterly earnings today, and at the same time announced that Assassin’s Creed and Brothers In Arms: Hell’s Highway have both been pushed back to the next financial year, probably Q3 2007. In addition, Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter 2 was announced, currently in developed and scheduled for release in Q2 2007.
Assassin’s Creed was meant to appear on the Xbox360 and PlayStation 3 in the beginning of 2007, alongside Brothers In Arms: Hell’s Highway. Now both games have been pushed back at least 6 months, no reason was given for the delay.
On the business side, earnings for the first half of 2006 were 25% better than expected; total sales reached 274 million euros ($310 million). Ubisoft expects sales to increase in the second half of 2006, due to several new titles (including Splinter Cell Double Agent, and Rainbow Six Las Vegas), and a massive Wii lineup.

I won’t be upset but I know a TON of folks who were really looking forward to that AC game … I can hear them crying now … oh well at least a new GRAW is coming soon. They probably just have too many simultaneous projects … like all the other major studios trying to publish for every console and handheld on the market.
