Ubisoft has confirmed that Watch_Dogs Legion, Rainbow Six Quarantine and Gods & Monsters have all been delayed into Ubisoft’s fiscal year 2020-2021.
As reported by MarketScreener, Ubisoft broke the news during a recent financial call, with Ubisoft co-founder and CEO Yves Guillemot stating that he wants his “teams to have more development time to ensure that their respective innovations are perfectly implemented so as to deliver optimal experiences for players.”
“We have decided to postpone the releases of Gods & Monsters, Rainbow Six Quarantine and Watch_Dogs Legion until 2020-21,” Guillemot said. “While each of these games already has a strong identity and high potential, we want our teams to have more development time to ensure that their respective innovations are perfectly implemented so as to deliver optimal experiences for players. This decision will have a very significant impact on our financial results for this fiscal year and goes against our recent successes in building a more stable development model. However, it is in line with our strategy to maximize the future value of our brands for the long-term benefit of our employees, players and shareholders. We expect it to have a positive impact on our financial performance as from 2020-21.”
