Insiders: five parts of Assassin's Creed, including Shadows, will be ported to new consoles from Nintendo

It is known that in 2025, new handheld consoles from Nintendo will appear on the market, which in the media appear under the name "Nintendo Switch 2".

Of course, this is a great opportunity for many developers to port their games to yet another device and thus attract even more players.

It looks like Ubisoft is serious about supporting the yet-to-be-released console.

Here's What We Know

Insider Nash Weedle reported interesting information: according to his data, the French developer is preparing ports of five parts of Assassin's Creed on Switch 2.

First of all, we are talking about a new game Assassin's Creed Shadows in the setting of feudal Japan. The informant is sure that its port will be ready for the launch of Switch 2 sales, which according to media reports will take place in Q1 2025.

Assassin's Creed Valhalla, Mirage, Odyssey and Origins will also be available on Japanese consoles, with the latter two games being part of a single bundle.

Notably, another insider, 'Necro' Felipe, has confirmed the porting of Assassin's Creed Shadows to Nintendo Switch 2.

Well, we have to wait for at least the official presentation of the new console from Nintendo, after which we can also wait for the announcement from Ubisoft.

As a reminder, Assassin's Creed Shadows will be released on 15 November on PC, PS5, Xbox Series, and eventually the game What a twist! World of Warcraft, Assassin's Creed Shadows and Frostpunk 2 are coming to iPhone and iPad - and that's not the whole list.
