Ubisoft allegedly cancelled plans for a new Assassin’s Creed game set in in the aftermath of the American Civil War last year, with online moaning about Assassin’s Creed Shadows co-protagonist Yasuke and concerns over the volatility of the modern day US political climate being cited as reasons.


It’s interesting to hear about the direction Ubisoft was considering for the next Assassin’s Creed installment. The impact of current events on creative projects is always a complex issue. It’ll be intriguing to see what they come up with next.
