Det rapporteras vara minst nio Assassin's Creed-spel under utveckling

Ubisofts nästa stora titel i serien, Assassin's Creed Shadows, har redan tydligt visat att världen fortfarande törstar efter fler äventyr i lönnmördarnas fotspår. Med detta i ryggen planerar utgivaren att trappa upp takten rejält - och det verkar nu som att inte mindre än nio olika projekt är kopplade till Assassin's Creed-universumet.

Även om alla inte befinner sig i aktiv utveckling, ger en ny rapport från Insider Gaming, signerad den vanligtvis mycket tillförlitlige Tom Henderson, en detaljerad översikt över vad fans kan förvänta sig under de kommande åren. Här är vad han hävdar är på gång:

Jade - Jade is an Assassin's Creed game set in China and is suppose to be the next Assassin's Creed game to release.

Invictus - Invictus is the working title for an Assassin's Creed 'Fall Guys' inspired game, where players will complete in matches of 16 players. If Invictus aligns with internal expectations, there's around a 5 year plan for support and updates already pencilled in.

Obsidian - Assassin's Creed Blackflag Remake - Rebuilt in the new Anvil engine. Obsidian is expected to launch around the same time as Invictus.

Hexe - Originally codenamed Neo, Assassin's Creed Hexe (still a working name), is scheduled to release after Shadow's support ends. Shadows is scheduled to have around 2 years of DLC support and Hexe will have 1 year of DLC support.

Scarlet - Scarlet is the next big RPG after Shadows and will release after Hexe support ends (1 year). I haven't been able to pinpoint further details on what this game is, but it has been greenlit and has entered production. My speculation is that it's Assassin's Creed Nebula, which is a game that will take place in three different settings: India, the Mediterranean, and the Aztec Empire.

Stardust - Stardust is Ubisoft's second remake in development and will enter production following Obsidian's release. It's currently unclear on what the remake is.

Emerald - Emerald will launch shortly after Stardust (within a couple of months) and will be another multiplayer title with at least a 5 year plan if the game releases and meets internal expectations. This could be the PvE game previously under the codename "Raid" or the other multiplayer game under 'Echoes'. It appears at the very least that one of those games have been cancelled.

RPG3 - RPG3 currently does not have an assigned codename, developer, or theme, but is pencilled in to release after Scarlet's two years of support.

Remake3 - Remake3 currently does not have an assigned codename, developer, or game, but will be a remake that will release approximately 1 year after RPG3's release.

Ubisoft har med andra ord inga planer på att sakta ner när det gäller Assassin's Creed-serien. Frågan är bara vilken av dessa många satsningar som lockar mest. Är det något av projekten som sticker ut för dig?
