==Future==
Ubisoft has made several statements about future installments. They said that settings such as World War II, Feudal Japan and Egypt are not likely to be featured, as they are considered "boring" and unoriginal for ''Assassin's Creed''.<ref>[http://www.latestnewsexplorer.com/ww2-egypt-japan-are-boring-settings-for-ac/ Latest News Explorer: ''Ubisoft: WW2, Egypt & Japan Are 'Boring' Settings For Assassin's Creed'']</ref> They also said that they would refrain from creating trilogies for one single protagonist, like they did for [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze|Ezio Auditore]].<ref>[http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2012-09-28-assassins-creed-3-boss-talks-series-future-annualisation-plans-no-more-trilogies Eurogamer: ''Assassin's Creed 3 boss talks series' future, annualisation plans, no more trilogies'']</ref>
