After an avalanche of bad news that covered many big game releases that have been delayed due to various reasons, Ubisoft is the first publisher to brings us good news related to one of its 2020 game releases.

The French company has just confirmed that Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, the next installment in the Assassin’s Creed franchise, will release now release on November 10, one week earlier than Ubisoft originally announced.

Assassin's Creed Valhalla will launch on November 10 on Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, the Epic Games Store, and Ubisoft Store on Windows PC, as well as on uPlay+, Ubisoft’s subscription service, and Google Stadia.

The PlayStation 5 version of the game will be released along with Sony's console, so we'll just have to wait for the Japanese company's announcement.

Ubisoft's other major title for 2020, Watch Dogs: Legion will release on October 29 on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, the Epic Games Store and Ubisoft Store on Windows PC, as well as on UPLAY+, Ubisoft’s subscription service, and Google Stadia. However, those who purchase an Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S will be able to play Watch Dogs: Legion on November 10.

“We are excited to announce that players will be able to discover Assassin’s Creed Valhalla sooner than expected! We cannot wait to see the world we’ve been creating over the past 3 years coming to life on all platforms, including on the next generation of consoles with the Xbox Series X | S on November 10,” said Julien Laferrière, Producer on Assassin’s Creed Valhalla.

It's important to add that both Ubisoft's upcoming games, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla and Watch Dogs: Legion, will leverage the Smart Delivery technology, allowing players to buy the game once and play it on either Xbox One or Xbox Series X | S on November 10, 2020. Cross-save functionality between Xbox One and Xbox Series X | S will also be supported on both games so players can keep their progression from one platform to another.
