The Brotherhood of Assassin’s Spreads Around the World
WhileAssassin’s Creed Infinity is as discreet as the protagonists it portrays, the next installment of the franchise attracts all the lights. Even though Assassin’s Creed Valhalla continues its merry way and continues to be fueled through updates and other DLC, fans long to know the universe in which the developers at Ubisoft will transport them for the next installment. While waiting to officially know the location of the new adventures of our dear assassins, a whole lot of rumors are circulating regarding him.
Just yesterday, a rumor announcing that the next part of the Ubisoft license would take place in the heart of the Aztec civilization was denied, and not by just anyone. Indeed, Jason Schreier, the journalist emeritus of Bloomberg, contradicted ACG informationbut did not prove him 100% wrong: the code name of the game is “Rift”, but it would rather take place on the Asian continent, and more precisely on the side of Baghdad. Even today, journalist Jeff Grubb corroborated this information while evoking, even further, the future of the license.
An Assassin’s Creed to the Ghost of Tsushima?
This may be the rumor that will ignite the passions of Assassin’s Creed fans the most this summer. While waiting for Ubisoft to speak directly at an event scheduled for September in honor of its flagship franchise, the future of Assassin’s Creed is being talked regarding. Casually, for the publisher, which has already sent us to the four corners of the globe with its series of video games, there are still a few universes in which to draw. And it would seem that Asia is a privileged destination: on the one hand with the “Rift” project and, on the other, with an episode that might immerse us in the very heart of Japan!
This is what Jeff Grubb recently mentioned in the context of a podcast (to be found above, at time-stamp 41:31) when discussing subsequent projects for the Ubisoft license. According to one of its sources, it might be that an Assassin’s Creed game taking place in Japan is in the pipes on the side of the French publisher, and it might also reconnect with the aspect of the old role-playing games of series. Nevertheless, the journalist says he cannot confirm anything, nor decide on the inclusion of this project in Assassin’s Creed Infinity. See you in September to have the end of this story? Anyway, a component in the Japanese regions is at the top of the basket of player expectations: it is not for nothing that some of them have developed a demo of this universe under Unreal Engine 5 !
