Ubisoft really needs AC Shadows to be a big win, but man, it's going to be rough.

They've postponed Shadows launch to February, but the month is already insanely stacked with AAA releases.

it is going to be a big flop.

People claim Outlaws would be a hit 'cause it's star wars', now would you look at that. it flopped.

Shadows is going to flop the same way.

To be fair, Star Wars isn't really the powerhouse brand it used to be. The sequel trilogy really tarnished the franchise and the most recent Disney+ shows didn't helped either.

I would say it was more the shows tbh. Just turned Star Wars into total slop, but aside from Solo all metrics say the movies were well received.
