Ubisoft Teases Upcoming Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, and Ghost Recon Titles, Acknowledges This Year as a ‘Low Point’

It’s no surprise that Ubisoft hasn’t had the best year, and the outlook for the next one isn’t much brighter. However, the company has promised fans that new titles in the Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, and Ghost Recon franchises are on the way… just not for a while.

In its recent earnings report for the fiscal year ending March 2026, Ubisoft revealed a staggering 54 percent drop in net bookings for the last quarter compared to the same period last year, which saw the release of Assassin’s Creed Shadows. Overall, net bookings for the year fell by 17 percent.

The report also highlights the ongoing “strategic transformation” aimed at recovering from a challenging few years. As part of this effort, Ubisoft has canceled seven projects and delayed six others. The company has also laid off several employees in waves while shutting down various studios worldwide, including Ubisoft Halifax, Massive, and Ubisoft Stockholm.

Ubisoft is assuring investors that brighter days are ahead, but patience is required. New entries in the Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, and Ghost Recon series are expected to launch sometime during fiscal years 2027-28 and 2028-29. With the new fiscal year starting in April 2026, this means fans won’t see these titles until at least April 2027, and possibly as late as March 2029, assuming there are no further delays.

In the meantime, Ubisoft is warning that the upcoming fiscal year will be a “low point” for free cash flow, with a “lighter release slate.” CEO Yves Guillemot described the combined performance of the past and upcoming year as “disappointing” financially. The company is relying heavily on its existing catalog, the anticipated remake of Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag, and Rainbow Six Siege to stay afloat during this transition, while also committing to completing its transformation.

It remains uncertain whether this will lead to more layoffs, project cancellations, or studio closures. However, it’s concerning when Ubisoft highlights For Honor, a game released nearly a decade ago, as a financial bright spot with double-digit revenue growth last quarter.
