Assassin’s Creed Empire still top project following VR title release reports

ASSASSIN’S CREED Empire looks set to be Ubisoft’s only release for the franchise this year, following reports of a possible new virtual reality title being worked on.

Assassin's Creed Empire remains the sole franchise project UBISOFT

It seems that Assassin's Creed Empire remains the sole franchise project for 2017

Assassin’s Creed Da Vinci’s Workshop was a project recently discovered online, which looked to confirm Ubisoft’s future plans for one of their biggest franchises.

“The game itself is a co-op escape room where players must solve numerous puzzles inside Leonardo’s workshop to recover a piece of Eden,” the official game description reads.

The discovery of the new Assassin’s Creed project led to speculation this could be a big new project from Ubisoft, however, more background information has now been shared.

Clarifying the situation, a project page for the VR experience now reads: “Assassin’s Creed: Da Vinci’s Workshop is a collaboration project between my university, NHTV, and Ubisoft meant for in-house experimentation of VR.

“Currently there is no plan for game to be commercially released or released at all.”

For Honor launches February 14

The project is being built using Unreal Engine 4, and is designed to run on Oculus Rift and HTC Vive.

While this new update suggests that Ubisoft will be sticking with Assassin’s Creed Empire as their main franchise expansion this year, this does suggest that the game’s publisher are ready to start experimenting with possible VR tie-ins.

Assassin's Creed Empire will take a radically different approach to storytelling, according to Ubisoft.

Ubisoft's Serge Hascoet told French newspaper Le Monde that linear narratives should be secondary, and that games should be more like anecdote factories.

The Ghost Recon Wildlands Beta begins on February 3

The next Assassin's Creed game, which is believed to be titled Assassin's Creed Empire, will be the first game to fully embrace the change, although the new direction can be found in titles like Far Cry Primal and Watch Dogs 2.

"For the next Assassin's Creed, the designers have created a system in which what I do not only has meaning just now, but also long-term," he said. "My actions will change the world."

Assassin's Creed Empire is yet to be officially announced by Ubisoft and is currently without a release date. It's expected to launch in 2017, but Ubisoft has suggested that it could be delayed.

Assassin's Creed Empire leaked production and final pyramid renders appear to confirm an Egyptian setting.
