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.
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.
Tencent has recently become a prolific developer in the mobile space. There is reportedly an Elden Ring mobile game 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 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.
There are several other Assassin’s Creed games in the works right now, including Assassin’s Creed Infinity–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.
