Ubisoft hints at longer Assassin's Creed development times ahead of Shadows debut

Prior to this apology, Ubisoft boss Yves Guillemot spoke out to condemn “malicious and personal online attacks” directed at Assassin’s Creed Shadows’ development team following its May reveal.

When Ubisoft unveiled Assassin’s Creed Shadows in May, there was backlash directed at the inclusion of this historical character.

When Assassin’s Creed Shadows launches this November, it will have been in development for four years.
