, much like its publisher Ubisoft, has faced countless controversies over the past year. Fans of the franchise have become somewhat disillusioned with it, in large part thanks to a handful of mediocre releases that seem to have abandoned what made the series so great in the first place.
With proving to be such a divisive title, it isn't surprising that some felt it had already missed its chance at redeeming the once iconic series and seeing Ubisoft return to form.
However, countless delays have put the game in a much better position, especially now that it has been moved out of the overly busy February slot into a far quieter March.
Importantly, this delay finally gives the game a chance to showcase not just how the franchise has evolved, but also how much Ubisoft has changed as a developer.
While it isn't guaranteed to save Ubisoft,could see fans finally fall back in love with a series that has languished over the past few years.
