Message: <blockquote data-quote="Admin" data-source="post: 63930" data-attributes="member: 1">Ubisoft is working on multiple Assassin’s Creed remakes, according to CEO Yves Guillemot.The publisher’s head spoke about its flagship series’ future in an interview published on the <a href="https://news.ubisoft.com/en-us/article/E1e8T9q8rjZ4arsPNT1Xd/ceo-yves-guillemot-on-ubisofts-upcoming-portfolio-the-future-of-assassins-creed" target="_blank">Ubisoft website</a>. When asked if the company will continue to offer a variety of experiences from the franchise, Guillemot told players to get excited for “some remakes.” It’s not clear just how many remakes there will be or which Assassin’s Creed stories they will cover.“Firstly, players can be excited about some remakes,” Guillemot said, “which will allow us to revisit some of the games we've created in the past and modernize them; there are worlds in some of our older Assassin's Creed games that are still extremely rich.”He continued: “Secondly, to answer your question, there will be plenty of experience variety. The goal is to have Assassin’s Creed games come out more regularly, but not for it to be the same experience every year. There are a lot of good things to come, including Assassin’s Creed Hexe, which we’ve announced, which is going to be a very different game from Assassin’s Creed Shadows. We’re going to surprise people, I think.”One remake contender that fans may already have their eyes on is 2013’s Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag. Last year, <a href="https://kotaku.com/assassin-s-creed-4-black-flag-remake-skull-bones-1850596271" target="_blank">Kotaku</a> reported that Ubisoft Singapore was heavily involved in the development of a <a href="https://www.ign.com/articles/ubisoft-is-reportedly-working-on-an-assassins-creed-4-black-flag-remake" target="_blank">reimagining of the fourth mainline Assassin’s Creed game</a>. Now, more than a decade old, the pirate-themed action-stealth game remains a favorite among longtime enjoyers of the franchise, though the company hasn't gone as far as to confirm that a remake for this specific title is in the works.Ubisoft has never released a full-on Assassin’s Creed remake before, but the series has a lot of options to pull from. The original Assassin's Creed launched in 2007 and was followed by the Ezio trilogy, which includes Assassin’s Creed 2, Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood, and Assassin’s Creed: Revelations. The company reexamined Ezio's three-arc story with a remaster bundle called The Ezio Collection in 2016.Ubisoft is turning back the clock to reexamine Assassin’s Creed’s past, but its future holds a lot in store, too. <a href="https://www.ign.com/articles/how-assassins-creed-shadows-blends-new-and-classic-ideas-with-dual-protagonists" target="_blank">Assassin’s Creed Shadows</a> will transport fans to Japan when it releases its dual-protagonist story this November. In 2022, the publisher also <a href="https://www.ign.com/articles/assassins-creed-infinity-announced-with-two-new-games" target="_blank">revealed a project known as Assassin’s Creed Codename Hexe</a>. There company will also eventually release <a href="https://www.ign.com/articles/what-is-assassins-creed-infinity-ubisoft-explains" target="_blank">Assassin’s Creed Infinity</a>, a platform that is said to connect other experiences from the franchise under one umbrella.
