Ubisoft is reportedly going all in on Assassin’s Creed, although that might come as little surprise, with the action-adventure-stealth series being one of the publisher’s leading franchises. According to sources with Insider Gaming, three additional Assassin’s Creed games are on the way in the form of Nebula, Raid, and Echoes, each of which are currently in early development at different Ubisoft studios. The new Assassin’s Creed games are said to feature vastly different playstyles from its predecessors, which presumably include the newer open-world games (e.g., Valhalla) and upcoming Assassin’s Creed Mirage.
From an Insider Gaming report:
Ubisoft Sofia, known for co-developing Assassin’s Creed III: Liberation and Assassin’s Creed Rogue has pitched Project Nebula – An Assassin’s Creed title that will have three different settings; India, Aztec Empire, and Mediterranean.
Ubisoft Chengdu has pitched Project Raid – A free-to-play 4-player co-operative title that will be PvE. It’s believed that the titles characters will all be from the Assassin’s Creed universe.
