Ubisoft pushes back Rainbow Six Quarantine, Far Cry 6 and Avatar

Last week, Ubisoft announced that Far Cry 6 would no longer be coming out in February 2021, pushing the release back to later in the year. It turns out there is one other big delay too, with Rainbow Six Quarantine being pushed back again.

During Ubisoft's recent quarterly earnings report, the publisher confirmed that Rainbow Six Quarantine and Far Cry 6 would no longer be coming out in the current fiscal year, which ends on the 31st of March 2021. Instead, both games will now release in the 2021-2022 fiscal year, ending on March 31st 2022.

Ubisoft's upcoming Avatar game is also being pushed back to coincide with James Cameron's Avatar 2, which is now scheduled to release in 2022.

While some big games have been pushed back to the next fiscal year, Ubisoft's current-year earnings estimations are looking positive, in large part thanks to the holiday season releases of Watch Dogs Legion, Assassin's Creed Valhalla and Immortals Fenyx Rising.

KitGuru Says: Ubisoft's Q1 2021 is looking a lot quieter, but we can still expect some big releases next year. Are many of you looking forward to Far Cry 6 or Rainbow Six Quarantine?

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
