To clarify any potential confusion: We will release the first DevBlog tomorrow, and as part of that will reveal the release date. The DLC is not coming out tomorrow :)

On one hand I hope the release date is very close but at the other hand I fear that the marketing team might push the DLC too early because people want it now.

I still have very bad memories of that from the game Stellaris and their MegaCorp DLC. People wanted it so bad and the publisher gave in, leaving the game in an unplayable state that still leaves issues today (almost 3 years after the release of said DLC).

So yeah, I obviously want the DLC now, I love playing the game insanely much right now (have put in almost 130 hours in just roughly 2 months) but I also want them to release the DLC when THEY are REALLY ready for it.

Just to clear up some misconceptions: The release dates are set and proposed by us (but ofc communicated with the other teams within Ubisoft). We're not being pressured into keeping those or releasing on a set date by anyone but ourselves ;)

All these teases and "if this gets x amount of like we will reveal release date" is all pre planned and scripted. I sincerely doubt the devs are being pressured by the player's like that.

Then you'd be surprised to learn that we actually came up with that yesterday morning.

The teasers are planned for a longer time already, of course, same with our overall communication strategy. But that doesn't mean that we can't have some additional fun from time to time.
