Ubisoft will reveal "the future of Assassin's Creed" in September, the publisher has announced. As part of its 15th anniversary announcements today, the French company strongly suggested that some kind of Assassin's Creed announcement is on tap for then.

"The Assassin's Creed teams hope the community will enjoy these celebrations and invite all players to join them this September as they unveil the future of Assassin's Creed during a very special event," Ubisoft said.

That's all the publisher had to say, but one possibility is that we'll hear more about the ambitious Assassin's Creed Infinity (codename) project during the event, or potentially the rumored smaller-scale Assassin's Creed title that focuses on Valhalla character Basim.

In terms of what we do know is coming, Ubisoft's 15th anniversary celebrations for Assassin's Creed includes new activities in Assassin's Creed Valhalla, a free trial for Origins, and weekly celebrations through a dedicated site.

As for the "very special event," Ubisoft did not say if this will be an Assassin's Creed-focused event or a showcase of Assassin's Creed and Ubisoft's other upcoming games. Ubisoft is expected to hold a big showcase later this year with around 20 game announcements, including brand-new reveals and updates for existing titles. Whether or not this is the September, event, however, is unknown.

The original Assassin's Creed launched in November 2007 and has since spawned numerous sequels and spin-offs, as well as a feature film starring Michael Fassbender and Oscar-winners Marion Cotillard and Jeremy Irons.

Ubisoft is so out of touch i don't expect anything good from this.

I’m curious what people consider the last good assassins creed game? I throughly enjoyed Black Flag, everything thereafter fell off for me. Especially the recent ARPG route they gone with taking over outposts and the grind associated with power levels etc. i think the franchise needs a serious reboot.

Edit: a lot of good discussion and glad to hear from people who clearly enjoy the franchise. I hope Ubi can put out a product that satisfies everyone and reinvigorates AC.

I really hope Jason Schreier was wrong on his lead and that the next game doesn't become another live service like Breakpoint.
