The first novel was announced in June 2022 as part of the 15th anniversary celebrations for the Assassin's Creed series. In an interview with community developer Sebasteann Barradas, author Kate Heartfield revealed more about the novel including the fact that was to be the first of a trilogy. Heartfield's inspiration came from the rise of political assassinations in the 19th century, something that could easily fit into an Assassin's Creed storyline.^[4] It was officially released on 2 August in the United States and 8 September for the United Kingdom.^[2]

On 16 August, news of a sequel first came an interview Kate had with Ubisoft celebrating the release of The Magus Conspiracy's release. At the end of discussions on the book's characters and their motives, Kate revealed that she had officially been signed on for a sequel and mentioned how she and her editors had talked about what the series' whole story arc would look like to have an idea of what could happen going forward. An outline had already been created by press time, and she hinted that some characters in the first book would reappear in the then-unnamed novel.^[5] Three days later, Kate officially announced the title of The Resurrection Plot on her Twitter.^[6] On 29 August, on the video game podcast, the ECHO Cast, Heartfield revealed that the second novel is tentatively slated for a July to August 2023 release date, similar to the first.^[7]
