Ubisoft and Assassin's Creed Shadows are both back in the middle of controversy following the new release date for the game.

Ubisoft Entertainment SA fell the most since September after the French video-game company announced another delay in its popular Assassin’s Creed franchise and analysts expressed doubts about its takeover prospects.

The stock dropped after the videogame maker said it expected a decrease in third-quarter net bookings and pushed back the release of its blockbuster game for a second time.
