Assassin's Creed Shadows' Delay Adds to a Huge February 2025 for Gaming

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of gaming under my belt, I can’t help but feel a mix of excitement and trepidation as I gaze upon the gaming calendar for February 2025. The delay of Assassin’s Creed Shadows might have been a slight blow, but when you consider the company it’s keeping, it seems like a drop in the ocean compared to the tsunami of games that are about to hit the shores.

Unfortunately, it has been confirmed that the release date for ‘Assassin’s Creed Shadows’ has been moved to February 2025. This means fans will have to endure a bit more waiting before they can immerse themselves in the eagerly anticipated portrayal of feudal Japan within the Assassin’s Creed franchise. Despite the three-month delay from the initial expected release, we hope that this extra time will result in a more satisfying and refined gaming experience for players.

The postponement of Assassin’s Creed Shadows might not be problematic on its own, but it means that this upcoming game will now face competition from numerous other highly anticipated gaming projects. With Assassin’s Creed now among them, February 2025 is shaping up to be a month filled with the release of many eagerly awaited games spanning various genres, making it one of the most thrilling months for the gaming industry in a long time.

February 2025 Will Be a Month to Remember For the Gaming Industry

After experiencing a postponement, “Assassin’s Creed Shadows” is now slated for a release date of February 14. Fans have been eagerly anticipating an “AC” game set in ancient Japan for quite some time, and the setting and grandeur of “Assassin’s Creed Shadows” has generated significant excitement about the project. However, there are numerous other games scheduled for release in February 2025 that aim to leave a similarly impressive mark on the gaming industry, if not an even greater one.

Example: In February 2025, you can expect the arrival of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, following a seven-year wait since its predecessor’s debut. KCD2 boasts a larger playable realm and a broader range of combat options, making it one of the most eagerly anticipated RPGs of 2025.

Strategy game enthusiasts have something exciting to anticipate in February 2025, as the highly anticipated “Civilization 7” is scheduled for release on the 11th of that month. This will be the first new installment in the series in nearly a decade, and it promises to further develop the formula established by its 2016 precursor. Gamers can expect significant enhancements to the combat system in “Civ 7,” along with innovative plague and tribal mechanics. With its release, “Civilization 7” appears poised to serve as the natural progression of the long-standing and cherished strategy game franchise.

Japanese Studios Have a Big Say in February 2025’s Game Releases

2025’s February will see Japanese studios shine brightly, as Capcom and Ryu Ga Gotoku are both planning to launch AAA titles next month. Specifically, “Monster Hunter Wilds” is slated for release on the 28th, making it a noteworthy addition to an already impressive lineup of highly anticipated video games set for February.

The video game “Ryu Ga Gotoku’s Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii” was just announced, set for release on February 28. This fresh addition is an exciting new chapter in the rapidly expanding series. Serving as a spin-off from January’s “Infinite Wealth”, “Pirate Yakuza” brings back beloved character Goro Majima as the main protagonist. In this installment, Majima takes on the role of a pirate ship captain, offering players a variety of distinct gameplay and locations, along with the familiar beat-em-up combat that the series is known for.

As much as I’m bummed that my hands-on time with Assassin’s Creed Shadows has been pushed back slightly, it’s not long now until we gamers can finally immerse ourselves in this eagerly awaited title. With a plethora of exciting releases lined up from some of the biggest studios out there, February 2025 is shaping up to be an absolute goldmine for gaming enthusiasts like myself.
