The official website of the game is the culprit here and though Ubisoft has fixed the ‘glitch’ now, Gematsu has taken a screenshot of the page prior to it. The page mentions the title “coming to next-gen consoles”. Additionally it also provides us with a release date of October 29. That said, the PS4 is speculated for a release in November.
