seems like kotaku (aka the leakers of all previous AC games since BF) also confirms this rumour: http://kotaku.com/sources-next-big-assassins-creed-set-in-egypt-skippin-1750937895
Quote:
The next Assassin’s Creed, which we believe is set in ancient Egypt and code-named Empire, won’t launch until 2017, according to both a new online rumor and sources speaking to Kotaku. One person familiar with Ubisoft’s upcoming gaming plans told me this afternoon that the decision to delay Empire from fall 2016 was made after 2014’s disappointing Unity, and that this bump will allow the development team more room to improve and polish the game. The source said this bi-annual approach could be a new trend for Assassin’s Creed.

Rumors about Empire originated this morning on the 4chan boards......everything he wrote matches up with what I’ve heard independently for months.

I’d heard last year from three different people familiar with goings-on at Ubisoft that the next big Assassin’s Creed would be set in ancient Egypt. Since this morning, two other independent sources have contacted me to corroborate that. I heard about the code name Empire from two of those sources. Three of them told me the game would indeed launch in 2017. Months ago, one source told me the game would also take place in ancient Rome, although that may have changed; the 4chan poster says some sections had been removed from the game. (“There are talks about making a trilogy of this same character, so they might explore Greece/Rome next,” the poster wrote.)

Some old related artworks or mentions of setting in previous games


also they mention Watch Dogs 2 in San Francisco for 2016 in the article
----------------------------------------------------------
Original "4chan rumour" info:
Apparently though, Assassin's Creed 2016 has been cancelled according to a developer who's working on the project. The developer took to 4chan and said the following:

Quote:
"Egypt. There won't be an AC in 2016. You may screencap this and refer to it when nothing is shown in E3 2016. You'll have to wait until 2017 for it. The reason: It will be a complete revamp of the series. The game is going for a Witcher feel, with player progression, freeform combat system. Horse is back, and boats too. It's made by the Black Flag team. You may leave any question you want answered."

  • Ancient Egypt. They want the least amount of historical documentation to get freedom. The story is set before the Assassins and Templars even existed. This is basically a prequel to all ACs.
  • Think Black Flag. IE, not much to climb outside of villages.
  • This one has a lot more story than any of the rest. Going back to Ancient Egypt means they can do whatever they want, without "historical accuracy" to hold them back.
  • You play as a slave or ex-slave. He looks a lot like Altair, but with a darker skin . He is not edgy, from my understanding. He's a nobody that barely speaks.
  • The biggest difference about this one is how colorful it looks. Like holy fuck, blue skies, lush vegetations and desert sequences where you get mirage and shit. Also you have a pet eagle you can control.
  • Forget Prince of Persia. It will never come back. The reason why AC exists at all is because PoP meant Ubi has to pay for license, since they don't own the IP. AC is Ubi's own IP, so merchandising and all that shit is theirs to keep. PoP is financially not worth it.
  • the world is made from scratch. No recycling. The only recycling is animation and even then, this one will change most of it. As far as recycling goes, this next one will have the least amount of it.
  • PC, PS4 and Xbone. Not sure if they'll ever port it to whatever Nintendo makes next.
  • No one works on consoles anymore. Only programmers and technical directors have console devkits. The rest work on PC since the ports to consoles are so easy with the new gen. The average pc is an i7 6, 4gb ram and 670gtx
  • Depending on your needs, you may have a more powerful one.
  • The focus is more on adventure
  • I might be wrong. The original game included Greece, which you can travel to. But it was cut from the game due to scale issues. So the naval side is now a mystery to me.
  • There are talks about making a trilogy of this same character, so they might explore Greece/Rome next.
  • Not sure about FC, but it's about 3 times Black Flag. Unlike BF, you don't have to load cities. Everything is seameless.
  • Thanks for the talk guys. See you all at E3 for those who screencapped this thread. I hope the movie does not turn out to be shit, but who am I kidding.

Meh, it has happened before with leaks on 4chan. We'll see whether it's bullshit or not if there is an AC in 2016 Very Happy
Ancient Egypt without any historical references seems like a good idea though. While the first two worked (pretty damn good, even) with the historical background, it became pretty idiotic in the next installments.


There must have been a door there in the wall, when I came in.
Truly gone fishing.

No AC in 2016? Sad

I guess I will have to play some of the older parts I have yet to finish - AC: Brotherhood, AC: Revelation, AC3, AC: Unity, AC: Rogue, AC: Syndicate...

Oh... when I put it this way, it's not very sad news for me to skip AC this year.

Does anyone really give a shit about AC at this point, Ubi should focus on some new franchises AC is dead and buried they squeezed the last drop out of it long ago.

Now that Kotaku corroborates the news it's a legit thread. Unexpectedly but there you go.


TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."

I had the impression that site consists mostly of SJW and other bullshit.

Let's say the infos about the new AC are true, then:
Frap Frap Guy

Hopefully it will run better than that crap Unity.

Jason Schreier's articles? Something like 100% (meaning a certainty that he is never bullshitting, but whether plans change, that's different).

Ancient Egypt, Rome and Greece would be great.

I'm guessing Watch_Dogs 2 is taking AC's slot this year then.


"I think Call of Duty resonates because it's believable and relatable," Sledgehammer Games cofounder Michael Condrey says.

Believable and relatable...Yep, sounds like Call of Duty
