Assassin’s Creed Scarlet is the Series’ Next Action RPG – Rumor

Assassin's Creed Infinity

Assassin’s Creed Codename Hexe will reportedly follow the recently released Assassin’s Creed Shadows, seemingly offering a linear, non-RPG experience. However, given the success of the action RPG format, it would only be a matter of time before Ubisoft has another lined up.

According to Insider Gaming’s Tom Henderson, that title is Scarlet, which allegedly launches after Hexe’s post-launch support ends. Production has begun, and though he couldn’t narrow down any more information, Henderson speculated that this is Assassin’s Creed Nebula and features India, the Mediterranean, and the Aztec Empire as settings.

As for Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag Remake, it’s allegedly launching “around the same time” as Invictus (rumored to arrive this year). The latter is a multiplayer title with 16-player matches and seemingly takes inspiration from Fall Guys. Furthermore, if it “aligns with internal expectations,” there are reportedly plans for five years of support.

Of course, with Ubisoft cancelling live-service projects before they see the light of day and shuttering titles like XDefiant, plans could change for Invictus. Time will tell, so stay tuned.
