Upcoming Assassin's Creed games: Every new Assassin's Creed game in development
There are so many upcoming Assassin's Creed games in the works. From an interesting project that's coming in the form of an interactive hub, to the next flagship, open-world adventure, there's plenty in the pipeline to keep track of and look out when it comes to Ubisoft's long-running stealth series from Ubisoft.
After Assassin's Creed Mirage delivered a smaller-scale experience following the story of Basim before the events of Assassin's Creed Valhalla, we're set to see a bigger adventure that will take us Japan, along with some exciting new entries we can't wait to learn more about. Alongside a lineup of upcoming Ubisoft games and new games for 2024, there's a lot to watch out for in the future.
For a recap of all of the upcoming Assassin's Creed games coming our way, read on below.
Upcoming Assassin's Creed games
Assassin's Creed Infinity
Developer: Ubisoft Quebec, Ubisoft Montreal
Platform(s): TBC
Release date: TBC
Assassin's Creed Infinity is difficult to explain, but it could have a transformative impact on the way that we interact with Assassin's Creed games in the future. Ubisoft is effectively building an interactive hub that will function like the Animus, allowing you to jump between different historical playgrounds while simultaneously progressing the modern-day narrative framing that has been with the series since the beginning. The first two games to join the Infinity Hub will be Assassin's Creed Codename Red and Assassin's Creed Codename Hexe, and it is then expected to expand and evolve over time. It's a little metaverse-y, but it also makes perfect sense for this franchise.
Assassin's Creed Codename Red
Developer: Ubisoft Quebec
Platform(s): TBC
Release Date: TBC
Assassin's Creed Codename Red is expected to be the first game to join the Infinity Hub, and the sequel that will finally deliver on a longstanding fan-request: Codename Red is set in feudal Japan. In development at Assassin's Creed Odyssey's Ubisoft Quebec, Codename Red will let us live out a "very powerful shinobi fantasy" and has been described as the future of the open-world RPG Assassin's Creed games. It's a wildly exciting proposition, and we're eager to see what Ubisoft delivers here. As for a release date, a recent LinkedIn post from the Ubisoft office team hinted that Codename Red will be a 2024 blockbuster title...not long to wait now.
Assassin's Creed Codename Hexe
Developer: Ubisoft Montreal
Platform(s): TBC
Release Date: TBC
Assassin's Creed Codename Hexe is being positioned as a "a very different type of Assassins' Creed game." Details are few and far between, but we do know that it's being created by Assassin's Creed Valhalla developer Ubisoft Montreal and that former Watch Dogs Legion creative director Clint Hocking will be leading production. The first teaser trailer and game's codename suggest that Assassin's Creed Hexe will be set in 16th Century Europe during the infamous witch trials that engulfed the region. We could be in for a weird, subversive open world RPG here with Codename Hexe, and we're honestly here for a little more experimentation from the Assassin's Creed series.
Assassin's Creed Jade
Developer: Ubisoft
Platform(s): Android, iOS
Release Date: TBC
Assassin's Creed Jade is set to be the first truly open world Assassin's Creed game for mobile. Ubisoft has said that it's trying to build an authentic Assassin's Creed experience, albeit one that is totally optimized for touch controls. Assassin's Creed Jade will be set in China in the year 215 BCE – and, yes, you will be about to parkour across the Great Wall. Originally revealed as Codename Jade before it's official title was confirmed at GamesCom 2023 as simply Assassin's Creed Jade, it will also be the first game in the series to let you create your own assassin from scratch, which is a nice touch.
Assassin's Creed Netflix
Developer: Ubisoft
Platform(s): Android, iOS
Release Date: TBC
Ubisoft and Netflix have entered a pretty broad collaboration agreement. There's a Netflix Assassin's Creed series in production (with showrunner Jed Stuart at the helm; the writer of such iconic action movies as Die Hard and The Fugitive), and three mobile games in development for Netflix's video game platform. There are games based on the Valiant Hearts and Mighty Quest universes coming, and of course one based in the world of Assassin's Creed too. The Assassin's Creed Netflix game is in early development, but when it does launch it'll be available exclusively on mobile to Netflix subscribers around the world. No other information was shared, but our curiosity has been piqued all the same.
Assassin's Creed Invictus
Developer: Ubisoft
Platform(s): TBC
Release Date: TBC
Ubisoft says that it is "investigating how we will bring back standalone multiplayer experiences into the Assassin's Creed universe." Assassin's Creed multiplayer has been atop wish-lists for years now – it's been nine years since the mode featured in AC4: Black Flag, and eight since co-op appeared in Assassin's Creed Unity. Little is known about this standalone Assassin's Creed multiplayer game, although we know that it'll launch as part of the Assassin's Creed Infinity Hub, and franchise boss Marc-Alexis Coté has confirmed that the codename is 'Assassin's Creed Invictus'.
