	''Shadows'' was the last full season to get a summary, as shortly after it concluded in late June, the ''History Hit'' team began releasing many miniseries on 1 July about figures, events, and monuments throughout ''Assassin's Creed''. Unlike ''Behind the Legends'', these miniseries have inconsistent release chronologies, with episodes regularly jumping from new seasons to previous ones to discuss whatever topics from the games that are the seasons' respective focal points. Despite its impressive coverage of subjects across ''Assassin's Creed'', with the exception of the 2022 ''Behind the Legends'' episode on Blackbeard, the series entirely skipped over anything related to ''[[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag]]'' (2013) until a May 2026 episode on the wider [[Golden Age of Piracy]] in the [[Caribbean]] as part of promotions for the then-recently announced ''~~{{Wiki\|~~Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced}}'', which remade the original game for modern engines and graphics.

	The series' collaboration with ''History Hit'' continued for the next year until the ends of July and October 2025, when it twice briefly pivoted to focus on Ubisoft's then-upcoming game ''Anno 117: Pax Romana'' before resuming its weekly previous schedule. The pause in October also coincided with developers' decision to stop sorting new episodes into pre-existing arcs and likewise cease designing title cards for new miniseries, instead entirely redesigning the series' title card again and making it as the preview icon for all subsequent episodes which remain uncategorized. The sole exception to these rules was the miniseries ''Valley of Memory'', named after the [[Valley of Memory\|eponymous]], {{Wiki\|Saudi Arabia}}n-funded [[Assassin's Creed: Mirage downloadable content\|downloadable]] expansion for ''Mirage''. The series continued its regular programming until the end of March 2026, when it began slowing down to biweekly releases.
