MidnightDragon Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Ubisoft has revealed there won't be a new Assassin's Creed in 2019. http://www.ign.com/articles/2018/08/22/ubisoft-will-not-release-a-new-assassins-creed-game-in-2019 Hmm, maybe they are learning their lesson after all...though we'll just see 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon-Archon Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Quote There won't just not be a new "main" Assassin's Creed entry, either; Ubisoft also won't release any sort of spin-off or smaller game. Instead, explained Guillemot, Ubisoft plans to extend this year's entry, Assassin's Creed Odyssey, as much as possible through DLC. I figured they'd resort to milking it with DLCs. In comparison to main games, DLCs are much cheaper to create and net more profit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sephiroth4424 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I will believe it when i will not see it.Does this cover remastered games as well? I think AC3 doesn't have one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack_Reacher94 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 The article makes no mention of remasters, just no full games or spin-offs. Does this mean we could potentially get an Assassin's Creed or Assassin's Creed III remaster next year instead? Hopefully if they do a remaster of the Original it will be better then the shitty remaster they did for Assassin's Creed II. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarMadeKnight Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Glad to see that, although if they remaster an old one i'd like to see AC3. Never got to play it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenpai Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Thank God. These guys need to understand that there is such a thing as franchise fatigue. Do one, like every three years, max. Release something else in the meantime, like Watch Dogs or Far Cry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majob Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 They'll probably still do a remaster or two. the first AC and AC III remain unremastered still. Personally I didn't mind annual releases but I'm also a big AC fan so the entries people weren't too happy with I still greatly enjoyed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aecesaje_ Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Pretty happy to heard this. I love every single game of the Assassin's Creed franchise but I have to admit, I'm getting tired of AC games and Odyssey doesn't look to interesting for me (no hidden blade, the story isn't canon, no first civilization). I hope that the future of Assassin's Creed is good, I would like on game in my country, I think it would be pretty good because it could add naval gameplay again and you could go to Brazil, Cape Verde, Angola, etc (every portuguese cologne), I think this would only be possible on next gen consoles. Probably the next AC game will release to PS4 and PS5 since the next generation will come probably around 2020 or 2021 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrHambone Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 An AC3 remake would be awesome. I'm happy to see it's the favorite among others as well! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While that would be a better idea than every franchise I listed (I have every single Prince of Persia game since Sands of Time)... I'm okay with just letting franchises die off. Sometimes, they do what they needed to do and it's perfectly fine if they just stop releasing new entries. Personally, an even better idea would be investing in new IP. Show us something new, something fresh! (Not unlike what Assassin's Creed was back in 2007, actually) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidson2004 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I’m glad they’re not releasing one in 2019. Gives them more time to work on the next one while Origins (which is awesome BTW) and Odyssey holds everyone over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomBlade19 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 (edited) E3 Me: "Hey look, they announced a new Assassin's Creed game, looks dope." My friend: "Nah, I don't like AC, it's SO boring, can't stand that game. Every year always the same thing over and over, Ubisoft really knows how to milk this franchise." Launch Day Me: "Powerpyx posted his guide for the game, rated difficulty: 3/10." My friend: "Imma buy it" Every year this is what happens, I imagine with you guys is no different. Sometimes he even buys before I do. Edited August 22, 2018 by PhantomBlade19 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oowa Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 i'm actually fine with this considering Odyssey is being built more to run like an RPG, whichs means a lot to do and maybe different endings 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLakota Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Good. That gives the devs more time to perfect AC: Rising Sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Not unlike what Assassin's Creed was back in 2007, actually) Forgotten Sands was indeed disappointing. I liked PoP 2008 and wanted a sequel to see how the story would continue, but too bad that one wasn't received well with lots of fans. Wouldn't be surprised if Ubi did an AC game set in Persia though . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you said, Forgotten Sands was disappointing, and in retrospect, Warrior Within and The Two Thrones weren't all that good either. Funny how apparently Ubisoft only seems to get Prince of Persia right with the first entry (and the first Assassin's Creed is also still my favorite, to be honest).

They'll just have to figure out how to turn it into an open world service game first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like The Two Thrones, it's my favourite PoP game in the series. Warrior Within is by far my least favourite. Favourite AC game has to be AC2, the game was a huge improvement over the first one and the setting is interesting. Black Flag is very good too, but that's more of a Pirate's Creed with some ties to assassins . 2 minutes ago, soniq said: It's been long enough to reboot the prince yet again.

There's just something in that game that doesn't "click" with me. The whole thing just seems unpolished, inconsistent and lacking any creative vision. Warrior Within, on the other hand, I think is a good game. At least it has a consistent vision and the gameplay is solid. Shame the story makes absolutely no sense in retrospect. Even Two Thrones was better in that regard. The Sands of Time is by far my favorite. It has the best story, the best gameplay and the best creative vision.

Make a new IP, or better yet make a new Tom Clancy Splinter Cell game, or a new Rayman game even though that series doesn't exactly attract the masses. Watch Dogs 2 came out in 2016, so maybe it's time for a new game? Too early to tell, and I much rather see a brand new IP from Ubisoft rather than crank out shit like they've been doing.

Warrior Within had the best protagonist (starring a different voice actor), but tried too hard to be edgy and appealing to horny teenagers. Trophy lists for all three games were horrible, but I suppose you played the whole trilogy back on the Playstation 2 and thus you didn't have to deal with that crap.

MidnightDragon Posted September 14, 2018 Author Share Posted September 14, 2018 So they're releasing a bunch of DLC for Odyssey and a remaster of AC3 instead. Well, AC3 isn't a new AC game, so they still are holding up to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
