Ubisoft Delays Rainbow Six Mobile and The Division Resurgence

Rainbow Six Mobile and Tom Clancy's The Division Resurgence, much-anticipated mobile titles, have been delayed yet again. Initially slated for a 2024-2025 release, Ubisoft now plans to launch them after its FY25 fiscal year, meaning sometime in early 2025 at the earliest.

This decision, detailed in a recent financial report, aims to minimize competition within the already crowded tactical shooter market. The games are reportedly nearing completion, but Ubisoft seeks a more favorable launch window for optimal performance. The delay will likely push release beyond April 2025.

Strategic Move or Disappointment?

The delay is particularly noteworthy given the upcoming release of competing titles like Delta Force: Hawk Ops. Ubisoft's strategy focuses on achieving strong initial performance metrics ("optimized KPIs") in a highly competitive market, rather than launching amidst a flurry of similar releases.

While this news may disappoint fans eager to play these mobile adaptations of their favorite franchises, pre-registration remains open for both games. In the meantime, you can explore our extensive list of top mobile games of 2024 and our preview of the year's most anticipated mobile releases.
