Assassin's Creed Shadows leaks keep pointing to a Switch 2 release in early December, but Ubisoft doesn't have the best timing as Metroid Prime 4 releases a mere one day earlier

Despite not being officially announced for the platform, the release date of Assassin's Creed Shadows for the Nintendo Switch 2 has seemingly been leaked.

Nintendo Switch 2 getting Assassin's Creed Shadows has been a pretty foregone conclusion for a while now. Back in April, PEGI listed the port on its website, while Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot stated that "new versions" would come to "other machines." This came to a head last week when French retailer Auchan listed the game on its website, complete with a box art mockup for a Switch 2 release.

However, despite the official announcement not happening yet, Bilbil-kun is claiming that the Nintendo Switch 2 version of the latest Assassin's Creed game will release on December 5, 2025, at "around €50." While they cannot confirm when the port will be announced, Dealabs says pre-orders should be announced by November 7, 2025.
