Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot announced today during the earnings call that the next Assassin’s Creed game will feature a new hero, and a new time period.
The next game in the series is said to come out in the fiscal year 2014 and will be developed by multiple teams. That being said, we will most likely see the next Assassin’s Creed game on the next generation console, leaving Assassin’s Creed III to be the last game in the series for the current consoles. “It is the benefit of multiple teams, working on multiple chapters of the brand, each getting several years to make their versions of an Assassin’s Creed game.” says Yves Guillemot, CEO of Ubisoft.
