This game was supposed to be Ubisoft India’s first major title. While the studio has assisted with games like Rainbow Six Extraction and Just Dance, they never really worked on a major title. The game was announced back in September of 2020 and was supposed to be released in January 2021.
Just like the other Assassin’s Creed games, this game runs on their AnvilNext Engine too.
However, the fans did not like the official trailer which was released by Ubisoft. Seeing the poor reception of the trailer, Ubisoft has announced a lot of delays since that time. They even gave another update a few months back, saying that the game should be released in 2022. But after looking at the current situation, it is safe to say that the game could be delayed again.
