Infinity might just be Ubisoft's first cross-studio collaboration - where each of the studios has a creative lead for the project. This puts Assassin's Creed Infinity's potential release window sometime around 2024, although it could definitely arrive earlier or later. Thus, it makes sense that Ubisoft should provide its studios enough time to ensure consistently high-quality standards - even if it means taking a year off from the franchise to achieve that goal. This does support the aforementioned sentiment, although it isn't entirely confirmed just yet. In the official announcement, Ubisoft did state about Infinity's purpose to stop passing "the baton" of developing entries between studios and instead form an umbrella under which the future of the franchise will continue. Given that Assassin's Creed Valhalla will receive new content up until 2022, it gives a great starting-off point for basing predictions around Infinity's unclear release date.Īssassin's Creed Infinity can be loosely termed as the next evolution of the series, as the live-service model will replace traditional Assassin's Creed releases. Ubisoft's predicament with the Assassin's Creed brand is to keep it relevant in the minds of fans, taking breaks only when it is absolutely required.
ASSASSINS CREED 2 RELEASE DATE SERIES
Valhalla is easily the most expansive game in the series yet with a plethora of expansions already available, and Ubisoft has assured fans that post-launch content will be doled out well into the second year of the game's release. Ever since Assassin's Creed 2 hit shelves in 2009, Ubisoft consistently released an Assassin's Creed title every year with the exception of 2016, where the series took a gap to evolve into an action RPG with 2017's Assassin's Creed Origins that veered from the franchise's stealth roots.Ģ019 was also a gap year for the series, which resulted in 2020's Assassin's Creed Valhalla. Assassin's Creed is undoubtedly one of the biggest IPs under the French giant, and Ubisoft has been quite adamant about releasing as much Assassin's Creed content that it possibly can up until very recently.
