If you're eagerly awaiting the mobile releases of Rainbow Six and Tom Clancy's The Division Resurgence, you'll need to exercise a bit more patience. Ubisoft has recently disclosed in their business documents that both titles have been delayed beyond their originally planned 2024-2025 release window, now slated for post-FY25.
FY25, in Ubisoft's financial terminology, spans most of 2024 into early 2025. This means fans can expect to see these games hit the market no earlier than after April 2025, when the financial year concludes.
Interestingly, the delay isn't due to development setbacks but rather a strategic decision to avoid a highly competitive market for tactical shooters. The business documentation suggests that Ubisoft aims to release these games at a more optimal time to ensure a strong start without being overshadowed by other major releases.
As we've previously noted, other major titles like Delta Force: Hawk Ops are set to enter the market before Rainbow Six Mobile and The Division Resurgence. Ubisoft's goal, as stated in their documents, is to deliver "optimized KPIs in the context of a demanding yet very large market," which translates to wanting a robust launch amidst fierce competition.
While this news might be disappointing for fans eager to dive into these beloved series on mobile, there's still an opportunity to stay updated by pre-registering for both games.
