Everything Assassin's Creed Announced During Today's Ubisoft Forward Showcase
Today's Ubisoft Forward was mostly about Assassin's Creed, and it had a lot to talk about. There were new games announced, further details about Mirage released, and so much more.
Let's take it from the top, shall we?
This game was officially revealed last week following extensive leaks, and as expected, Ubisoft had a lot more to share about it during today's Ubisoft Forward showcase. Basim Ibn Ishaq, the master assassin from Assassin's Creed Valhalla, is taking the lead role this time, but he'll be much younger. This game follows his journey from a thief on the luscious and diverse streets of Golden Age Baghdad in 861 to an apprentice of the Hidden Ones to a master assassin. It also represents a return to the series' roots, with heavy inspiration from the first Assassin's Creed game that started it all.

Finally, Assassin's Creed is heading to Japan. It doesn't yet have an official title, but for now, Ubisoft is calling it Assassin's Creed Codename Red. It's set in Feudal Japan, and it will be the next mainline flagship title for the franchise, which seems to point towards this being the next Assassin's Creed game after Mirage comes out next year. Not much else was revealed about the actual game, but Ubisoft did say it will launch within the platform of Assassin's Creed Infinity. Codename Red is being developed by Ubisoft Quebec, the studio behind Assassin's Creed Odyssey.
Ubisoft revealed that Codename Red and Codename Hexe, another Assassin's Creed game teased today, are coming to Assassin's Creed Infinity. Ubisoft revealed today that Infinity is not a game per se, but a portal for future Assassin's Creed games.
