There is Too Much Assassin’s Creed On the Way

Assassin’s Creed is the only game Ubisoft seem to be making, with 11 new titles in the works. That’s according to a leak that’s also promising a Black Flag remake.

Here’s the thing, Ubisoft is more than this and Tom Clancy. But you wouldn’t know that to look at this rumoured leak.

Whatever happened to Beyond Good and Evil 2? And, more importantly,
