Ubisoft has just confirmed that all versions of the eagerly anticipated open-world action game, Watch Dogs, have been pushed back until Spring 2014.

In the statement from the development team (included below), it was explained that in order not to compromise the quality of the final product, the game needed more time for fine tuning and polish. Here's the statement in its entirety:

Our ambition from the start with Watch_Dogs has been to deliver something that embodies what we wanted to see in the next-generation of gaming. It is with this in mind that we've made the tough decision to delay the release until Spring 2014.
 
We know a lot of you are probably wondering ‘why now?' We struggled with whether we would delay the game. But from the beginning, we have adopted the attitude that we will not compromise on quality. As we got closer to release, as all the pieces of the puzzle were falling into place in our last push before completion, it became clear to us that we needed to take the extra time to polish and fine tune every detail so we can deliver a truly memorable and exceptional experience.
 
We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you. We thoroughly enjoy and appreciate the way you respond on the web, at events, press conferences and during other opportunities we have to interact. Your passion is what drives us.
 
We can't wait to see you in Chicago next Spring. We are confident you'll love this game as much as we love working on it.

When it finally arrives in Spring 2014, Watch Dogs will launch on Xbox 360, PS3, PC, PS4, Xbox One and Wii U.
