Moving further, Ubisoft also revealed more Assassin’s Creed offerings. There’s Codename Red, an expansive title, to say the least. One can compare its scale to a similarly sized title like Valhalla. It will be set in Feudal Japan, being made by Ubisoft Quebec. Per the publisher, it’s going to begin what will be called the ‘Period Three’ of AC. An exact release date is yet to be officially confirmed.

There’s also the Assassin’s Creed Codename Hexe, which will dive into the horror genre for the first time in the franchise. It’s being developed by Ubisoft Montreal. Invictus is also going to be a major addition to the series, exploring the multiplayer aspect. It will be for those players who are more interested in getting stuck in the online arena.
AC Codename Jade will also be arriving soon in the future. It is being made for the mobile platform. Set in ancient China, it will try to attract fans in the Chinese region by offering a free-to-play format. Last but not least is a collaboration project, being developed by Ubisoft for Netflix. It will be a mobile game as well and is said to be tied to an original Netflix TV show, which is yet to be revealed.
After witnessing so many announcements, die-hard Assassin’s Creed fans wasted no time in dropping their reactions. It looks like the majority of the players are looking forward to the upcoming projects in the iconic franchise. They are extremely excited about what’s about to arrive.

For the first time in years iam excited for a assassin's creed game.
Haven't played one since black flag… I hope the game play is almost like original ac games.— Tarun Singh (@sc0rpi025) September 11, 2022
I, for one, like both styles of Assassin's Creed. Nice to be going back to the action-adventure roots in Mirage, but I loved Origins/Odyssey/Valhalla. Glad to see they're working on both style of games
