Assassin's Creed Shadows Is No Longer The Only Big Open-World Samurai RPG Coming Out In March
Briefly

Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed Shadows, an eagerly anticipated samurai RPG, faces release competition with Team Ninja's Rise of the Ronin launching just a week prior on March 11, 2025. Both games explore Japan's rich history and open-world gameplay, yet Shadows is a long-desired concept for fans who waited over a decade for a Japan-set entry. Originally set for earlier releases, Shadows' delays followed the mixed feedback of other Ubisoft titles, further complicating its market presence as players now have several similar options to choose from within a short timeframe.
Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed Shadows faces competition from other titles, particularly with Rise of the Ronin releasing just days before it on PC, potentially impacting sales.
Assassin's Creed Shadows, delayed multiple times, finally brings players to Japan, a setting fans have long desired, albeit at a time of stiff competitive pressure.
While Assassin's Creed fans have long requested a game set in Japan, it arrives after similar titles have made their mark, intensifying the competition.
Despite positive previews, Assassin's Creed Shadows will have to navigate challenging market dynamics, including competition from games like Ghost of Tsushima's sequel.
