Obviously, that didn’t happen. Weirdly enough, Ubisoft announced a new March date in January 2022, only to change their minds the following month and delay The Settlers: New Allies indefinitely. By this point, fans of the franchise had likely lost all hope, but in late November, Ubisoft said the game would be released on February 17th. Now we’ve got a little confirmation that’s actually coming true via the game’s official system requirements, available through the Epic Games Store page.
