Rumors around the future of the saga Assassin’s Creed have never been so numerous. It is expected thatUbisoft lift the veil on Assassin’s Creed Rift from September, with an episode which should logically take place in Baghdad according to information from several journalists. But fans of the series are also waiting for clarification about Assassin’s Creed Infinity, which is described as a platform that can accommodate other games and eras over time, game service style. With this project, the possibilities are numerous, and it could be that a Assassin’s Creed taking place in Japan is increasingly possible.
A full episode in Japan?
Having an episode ofAssassin’s Creed in Japan is arguably one of the series’ oldest fan fantasies. So when Jeff Grubba relatively well-informed journalist at Venture Beat, says it’s a possibility, there’s plenty to get excited about.
On his Game Mess Decide show, Grubb quickly returned to the rumors aboutAssassin’s Creed Riftbefore adding thata next installment may well take place in Japan, unless this is all just one of the projects related to Assassin’s Creed Infinity (around 42:08):
” I can’t confirm this, although I’m hearing things that have come true from the same source, but the next one that will come after all of this [après Rift] – or maybe it’s part of Infinity I don’t know, it’ll be closer to the RPG episodes and it’ll be set in Japan. »
We will obviously take these statements with a grain of salt.but see Ubisoft take advantage ofAssassin’s Creed to introduce eras or places that fans have been hoping for for years could be a good strategy.
