(Reuters) -French video game group Ubisoft cut its full-year forecasts on Thursday as it pushed back three major new releases to the next fiscal year.

Free-to-play game "Tom Clancy's The Division Heartland", slated for release in 2021-22, is now expected to premiere over 2022-23, Ubisoft said, along with "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time" and "Rocksmith+", two titles that had been already delayed this year.
