According to some rumors, (which should be taken with a light grain of salt), the future of Assassin's Creed has been rescoped and sounds very exciting. I can't wait.

"Assassin's Creed V has been in the development cycle for almost three years, at Ubisoft Montreal and Ubisoft Toronto with development support from Ubisoft studios at Annecy, Quebec and Montpellier. Assassin's Creed V will release on the PlayStation®4 from Sony Computer Entertainment Inc., Xbox One, the all-in-one games and entertainment system from Microsoft and Windows PC. The game will release worldwide on November 4, 2014.

In the events of the ongoing Industrial Revolution, Assassin's Creed V follows the story of Samuel Fey, as he enters the Assassin Order in a time of change and Templar rule. Fey is a successful and respectful entrepreneur, who works outside the corrupt law to guarantee the security of his own and others' futures. Taking place during the closing years of the Industrial Revolution in Victorian London, players will explore all new locales as they uncover the truth behind the hidden ongoing rebellion."

"Great Fall" has been proven to be fan-made. Also, don't forget to sign your posts. Stormbeast ♉ ^{The Helpful Place} 20:57, February 28, 2014 (UTC)

I understand that, but that was just for heading purposes. The news release posted above is a seperate rumor. EDIT: I renamed the post, to clear any confusion xD XX-w0lf f4ngs-X (talk) 21:02, February 28, 2014 (UTC) 

Also, there are rumors that New-Gen will be getting it's own game, while Last-Gen will be receiving another one. XX-w0lf f4ngs-X (talk) 22:12, February 28, 2014 (UTC)

If X360, PS3 and PC are due to get a game now, I don't believe it will be a main one in the series – at the most, it will be a side game like Recollection or Pirates is. After all, I don't think Ubi will want to split their playerbase like Black Flag again, although that was only due to the release of the "current"-gen consoles.

Personally, I think AC5 is going to be pure "current"-gen just to keep the flow of the titled games going, as well as encourage more buyers for the platform. I hope the multiplayer portion is greatly rescoped. I would really like the passion in editing that part of the Wiki articles to come back. Right now, it's stuck on the point of knowing another game will come and steal the focus away, as well as the generally uninspiring direction it is going, that doesn't allow me to actively want to pick up the controller and play.

I'm not sure what you mean by current-gen, because many people still refer to the PS3 and current-gen. In my opinion, Ubisoft is putting all their focus on new-gen (PS4, Xbox One). They have already stated that the next Assassin's Creed will undergo a massive rescope and be a "true next-gen" game.

About the multiplayer, I've felt like they almost NEED a co-op element to the single-player. I can only imagine free-running around a huge open world map with 3 of my friends.

Also, the newfound focus on stealth and combat is exciting. Could we be seeing AC finally recognizing it's best path, not as a Prince of Persia spin-off but as a stealth-based series? THAT is exciting. 108.212.114.204 01:08, March 1, 2014 (UTC)
