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

Rainbow Six Mobile and The Division Resurgence, the highly anticipated mobile titles from Ubisoft, have been delayed yet again. Initially slated for a 2024-2025 release, both games will now launch after Ubisoft's fiscal year 2025 (FY25), meaning sometime in 2025. This decision, detailed in a recent business document, aims to mitigate competition within the already saturated tactical shooter market.

Ubisoft's FY25 extends into early 2025, suggesting a release date no sooner than April 2025. The delay isn't attributed to unfinished development, but rather a strategic move to optimize market positioning and ensure a stronger launch. The company seeks to avoid being overshadowed by other releases in a highly competitive landscape, prioritizing a successful market entry.

This delay is particularly noteworthy given the upcoming release of titles like Delta Force: Hawk Ops, which will likely preempt Rainbow Six Mobile and The Division Resurgence in the tactical shooter space. Ubisoft's strategy focuses on achieving strong Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) in a challenging but large market.
