Assassin's Creed: Unity delayed by two weeks

Will now launch alongside last-gen title AC: Rogue.

Assassin's Creed Unity has been delayed by two weeks. It will now launch on 13th November in Europe.

North America will get the game a couple of days earlier, on 11th November. Previously (as has become tradition) the game was due to launch worldwide on the same day - 28th October.

The date change means that Unity will now arrive on the same day as Ubisoft's last-gen title Assassin's Creed Rogue.

The North American date for Rogue remains unchanged (11th November), but the European date has been shuffled forward to the 13th.

"As we got close to the finish, we realised we were near the target but still needed a bit more time to hone some of the details to make sure Assassin's Creed Unity is exceptional," producer Vincent Pontbriand said.

"We sincerely appreciate players' commitment to the game and their patience. It's just a couple more weeks. And it's going to be worth it."
