It’s unclear when fans will seeAssassin’s Creed Redin action, but in the meantime, a new rumor has indicated that it could mark the end of an era for theAssassin’s Creedfranchise. According to Resetera user John Harker, known for their inside information,Assassin’s Creed Redwill be the last game in theAssassin’s Creedseriesto follow theOriginsformula.
TheAssassin’s Creedgames originated as stealth-oriented action games, but Ubisoft decided to take the series in a bold new direction withAssassin’s Creed Origins, which transformedAssassin’s Creedinto a massive open world action-RPG experience.Assassin’s Creed Odysseyfollowed the same blueprint,as didAssassin’s Creed Valhalla. While fans should take the claim with a grain of salt, if Harker’s information is accurate, it seems futureAssassin’s Creedgames will take on a different shape.
Of course, it’s always possible Ubisoft could revisit the open world RPG format in futureAssassin’s Creedgames. After all,Assassin’s Creed Mirageis a return to the franchise’s stealth roots, so who’s to say that a futureAssassin’s Creedgame couldn’t harken back to theAssassin’s CreedOriginsgameplay formula.
As far as futureAssassin’s Creedgames go, fans of the franchise have a lot to look forward to. There’sAssassin’s Creed MirageandAssassin’s Creed Red, plus theAssassin’s CreedVR game,Assassin’s Creed Hexe, theAssassin’s Creed Jademobile game, and the ambitious newAssassin’s Creed Infinityexperience. Time will tell how all these newAssassin’s Creedprojects stack up, but the franchise seems to have an incredibly bright future.
