But that is the unusual reality we now live in: Ubisoft has confirmed earlier rumours that there will be no new Assassin’s Creed this year. Ubisoft is much more practiced with the PS4 and Xbox One, allowing for higher graphical quality without sacrificing too much in terms of gameplay.
In a post today, Ubisoft confirmed that the company would be “stepping back and re-examining the Assassin’s Creed franchise”, meaning that no new Assassin’s Creed game will be released in 2016.
It continues, “Since the release of Assassin’s Creed Unity, we’ve learned a lot based on your feedback”.
On the subject of its fiscal 16/17 games slate, the corporation said: “Ubisoft will launch a very high-quality line-up, including For Honor, South Park: The Fractured But Whole, Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Wildlands, [and] the next instalment of Watch Dogs”. Ubisoft will share more details about this soon. Also, you can check out last year’s AC Syndicate.
It has also been busy with the upcoming Assassin’s Creed movie that is scheduled to hit the big screen on December 21st, 2016. We’re proud of the talented team in Quebec City, and all of our studios around that world that took part in bringing the Victorian London adventures of our twin assassins to life.
