The protagonist will also allegedly befriend famed French alchemist Nicolas Flamel, who will act as a potion and equipment dealer, similarly to Leonardo da Vinci in Assassin's Creed 2.

What Will Assassin's Creed 2021 (or 2022) Be Titled? The COVID-19 pandemic has caused delays across the games industry, like upcoming Ubisoft titles Far Cry 6 and Rainbow Six Quarantine, so a slowdown in the next Assassin's Creed game's development wouldn't be unfounded. The most recent installments of Assassin's Creed have been developed by Ubisoft's Quebec and Montreal studios, so that would be a major shift for the franchise.Ī planned 2021 release for the next Assassin's Creed title is believable, seeing as Ubisoft only ever took a two-year gap between the series' releases between Odyssey (2018) and Valhalla (2020). The rumored title is said to be in development by Ubisoft Sofia, responsible for 11 ports (including Prince of Persia Classic) and creating the spin-off title Assassin's Creed 3: Liberation. Those plans were allegedly pushed back due to complications with the COVID-19 pandemic. The original 4chan thread was reposted on Reddit on February 28 and revealed that Ubisoft intended to launch its next Assassin's Creed title in 2021. When Will Assassin's Creed's Next Game Release?

Details about almost every new installment of the Ubisoft series have been revealed in advance for several years even Valhalla was revealed to be codenamed "Ragnarok" before its launch. The poster didn't cite a source or provide evidence to back up their claims, so this information could be nothing more than pure speculation.

But when is its release date, where is it set, and who will be the protagonist? Even though Assassin's Creed Valhalla might have recently rung-in the next generation of consoles, Ubisoft has already been rumored to be working on another installment of its action role-playing series. While the recent Viking-themed entry changed the traditional Assassin's Creed format from a stealth-adventure series into more of a fully-fledged RPG, the next title in the franchise is said to follow in AC Valhalla's footsteps.
