You don't have to say it, Lol. Yes, I am labelling it as a conspiracy theory when it is being said that they chose February specifically for Black History Month so that the French company could somehow make themselves immune to criticisms and label everyone as a bigot due to releasing in an American holiday month...You realise how that sounds? Lol.
They delayed it for polishing reasons, we know that already, we also know their FY ends March 2025. Logic says to us that these are the factors as to why it's releasing in February. They could have chosen another month? Why? Do you honestly expect a mega corporation would change their business plans and release schedules based entirely around the ramblings of some internet users?
The only other months they could have logically chosen were January or March if they were aiming to still get it in their FY and I already gave reasons as to why they likely picked February, tons of publishers release in February but suddenly Ubisoft isn't allowed cause they have a black character in their game? Well BHM is celebrated in February and October so I guess both those months are off-limits now.
Yves in the letter even went out his way to straight up run away from taking a political stance.
"Lastly, I’d like to address the recent polarized coverage around our creative choices. We are an entertainment company. As such, our objective is not to endorse any specific agenda. Our mission has always been to entertain players and enrich their lives with original and memorable experiences, that resonate with a global audience."
The world also doesn't revolve around America.
