Ubisoft, the French video game publisher behind the popular Assassin's Creed franchise, is reportedly planning to release 11 new games in the series over the next few years. This would be a major expansion of the franchise, which has typically released one or two new games per year.
The new games are said to be in various stages of development, with some already in pre-production. They are reportedly set in a variety of different time periods and locations, including ancient Egypt, Japan, and the Caribbean.
One of the most anticipated new games is Assassin's Creed: Rift, which is said to be a smaller, more focused game than the mainline entries in the series. It is set in the Middle East during the Crusades and stars a new assassin named Basim Ibn Ishaq.
Another new game is Assassin's Creed: Nexus, which is said to be a crossover event that brings together characters from different games in the series. It is reportedly set in the modern day and features a team of assassins who must stop a global conspiracy.
The remaining games in the lineup are said to be a mix of new and familiar settings. They include Assassin's Creed: Dynasty, which is set in China during the Ming Dynasty; Assassin's Creed: Infinity, which is a live-service game that will allow players to explore different historical eras; and Assassin's Creed: Project Aurora, which is a VR game set in ancient Greece.
Ubisoft has not officially announced any of these games, but the news has been met with excitement by fans of the series. It remains to be seen how many of these games will ultimately be released, but it is clear that Ubisoft is committed to expanding the Assassin's Creed franchise in a major way.
