Ubisoft has confirmed that it is developing several remakes of its popular Assassin’s Creed series. This news follows leaks suggesting that Assassin’s Creed 4 Black Flag would be the first game to receive a remake. The company aims to focus on remaking the most beloved entries in the franchise.
Ubisoft’s CEO, Yves Guillemot, shared this information in a recent interview. He emphasized that fans can look forward to experiencing revamped versions of classic Assassin’s Creed titles. Guillemot mentioned that several remakes are already in progress. He highlighted the richness of the worlds in older Assassin’s Creed games and the potential for these games to be modernized.
While specific titles were not officially confirmed, speculation is rife. Leakers have pointed to Assassin’s Creed 4 and the original Assassin’s Creed as likely candidates for remakes. Given its pivotal role in the series’ success, Assassin’s Creed 2 is also a strong contender. Despite many of the older titles already being remastered, the original game has not yet received this treatment, making it a prime candidate for a remake.
Ubisoft has expressed a desire to ensure a consistent release of Assassin’s Creed entries. This strategy includes offering varied experiences through upcoming games like Hexe and Shadows. By producing these remakes, Ubisoft hopes to reignite interest in the franchise and reclaim its dominance in the open-world gaming genre.
Fans of the series can anticipate more details about these remakes in the near future. Until then, they have the upcoming release of Assassin’s Creed Shadows to look forward to later this year.
