This year has seen several delays in the launch of some magnificent titles. Watch Dogs: Legion just joined an elite list of titles that have received a 2021 window of release.

Titles like Halo Infinite and Cyberpunk 2077 have been on the fan’s wishlist for months. The delay in the release of Halo Infinite gutted Xbox patrons who found themselves without an exclusive title at launch.

Watch Dogs Legion debuted recently. Ubisoft’s initial plans would have also seen a multiplayer mode of the game coming out before the end of this year. Alas, those plans have undergone a massive change as Ubisoft has just put the multiplayer on a back-burner until an unspecified date in 2021.

Ubisoft has delayed Watch Dogs: Legion multiplayer

Watch Dogs: Legion has received mixed reviews since its launch. Players have encountered several bugs and issues in the game that have really irked even the most ardent followers.

Ubisoft posted a message on their official website, providing a rationale for the delay.

“As part of our commitment to fixing the game’s issues, we’ve decided to delay the Online mode of Watch Dogs: Legion to early 2021. This will allow us to focus on fixing issues with single player, and it will give us more time to test the online experience to help ensure a smooth launch of the mode.”

A progression wiping bug had plagued the game, causing the players to lose their data. Several other minor issues hampered gameplay, forcing the devs to come out with an update.

Apart from fixing these issues, the update is largely focused on providing stability to the game and also give PC players an option to manually save their game.

The online mode that was set to launch on December 3 would have rolled out with several updates. This included a free roam mode where up to four players could get together to complete side activities and a mode dedicated to co-op missions. These should now arrive by 2021 as admitted by Ubisoft.
