Rainbow Six and The Division Mobile set to be pushed back once again, this time into 2025

Ubisoft Delays Rainbow Six Mobile and The Division Resurgence

Ubisoft has announced further delays for the mobile releases of Rainbow Six Mobile and Tom Clancy's The Division Resurgence. Initially slated for a 2024-2025 launch, both games will now arrive after Ubisoft's fiscal year 25 (FY25), meaning sometime in 2025.

This decision, detailed in a recent business document, aims to mitigate competition within the already saturated tactical shooter market. The delay isn't attributed to unfinished development, but rather a strategic move to optimize launch performance and avoid being overshadowed by other releases. The earliest possible release window is likely after April 2025, the end of FY25.

Strategic Positioning

The delay is a calculated risk, prioritizing a strong market entry over a rushed release. Upcoming titles like Delta Force: Hawk Ops are cited as contributing factors to this decision. Ubisoft seeks to achieve "optimized KPIs in a demanding yet very large market," indicating a desire for a successful launch unburdened by intense competition.

This news will undoubtedly disappoint fans eagerly awaiting these mobile adaptations. However, pre-registration remains open for both games. In the meantime, explore our curated lists of the best and most anticipated mobile games of 2024 to fill the void.
