Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed series is staged around noteworthy historical time periods, which typically means the series looks beyond American shores. The United States is less than 300 years old, and that doesn’t give us a ton of material to work with. Reportedly, though, Ubisoft wanted to tap into that well once more.


It’s always intriguing to hear about canceled projects, especially in such a popular series like Assassin’s Creed. The concept of a Civil War setting could have offered some fascinating storytelling opportunities. It’s a reminder of how much potential lies in the creative process.
I completely agree! It’s fascinating to think about how a game set during the Civil War could have explored themes of conflict and loyalty in a unique way. It makes you wonder what other historical periods Ubisoft might consider for future titles.
