The article reveals that the next AC is interally called AC Dynasty. They speculate that it could be China, but the Kotaku guys that keep leaking AC every year said it's not gonna be China but somewhere else.
Where's the Ubi employee when you need him. Origins got leaked here 2 years ago too.
Jack Williams
I would be okay with any of those. A bearded Sikh assassin with a Kukri would be dope.
Brody Morris
pls be japan
Asher Hernandez
JAPAN!
Eli Taylor
I want Feudal Japan, but I'd settle for ancient China. Fucking hyped
Jordan Rivera
Is Ubi trying to ride the Nioh hype?
Colton Morales
perhaps a bloodline of separate assassins we haven't seen before that kept to themselves to achieve their goals by themselves and the game shifts to each new descendant over time
Joshua Stewart
Well Syndicate was called Victory internally so who knows what Dynasty could be
Adam Hernandez
>the end of Origins implies that the modern mc is going to Alexandria >next game is set in China yeeah... what?
Jacob Scott
我们
Ayden Hernandez
I thought it was pretty obvious that it was referencing Victorian London.
AC Empire was a little harder to decipher.
Connor Allen
Speculation on author's part, it's basically confirmed that it's NOT gonna be China. Kotaku guy said so. Only the codename is right.
Luke Campbell
Starts in Alexandria and maon game is in China
Chase Brooks
With Ghost of Tsushima coming, is this a wise choice?
Nathaniel Lee
do you people even read the OP, it's not China
Jordan Fisher
>bearded Is this a new meme?
Adam James
Ghost is Japan anyways. Either way, its a Southeast Asian open world game that will absolutely have a huge bow and horse aspect to it
Mason Young
What AC really needs is to have a game where you jump between different eras everyone favorite parts of Syndicate and Unity were the WW2 sequences And I hope that Dynasty implies that
Wasnt that spinoff in china? There was also one in india
Dylan Green
>UPDATE] To clarify, our source no longer works at Technicolor, and we were incorrect to state that they are “currently working” on Assassin’s Creed ‘Dynasty’. I really wish for an AC game (proper AC game) to be set in either Russia, China or Japan, but they just won't do it. Last rumors I heard were that the next game is gonna be set in Greece or Italy again. They've already talked about Japan and said that there are too many games set in Japan so it wouldn't be interesting to see AC in Japan. China and Russia were already done in the comics and 2D, so they'll probably skip those as well. Fuck Ubisoft. >Hutchinson added that feudal Japan "would work" for Assassin's Creed but would be too familiar. He points out players have already become ninjas or samurai in plenty of other games. >His statement is in line with an interview he gave back in 2012, when he said Japan would be one of the "worst" settings for an Assassin's Creed game because of how overdone it is.
Jaxson Hall
>Dynasty Could be literally fucking anywhere, from India to Denver.
Josiah Jones
i am convinced its india. Its why origins has war elephant assets. The elephants are copy paste indian elephants.
Noah King
Ubisoft is working on a Cyberpunk game
Jace Edwards
Assassin's Creed 2077?
Liam Cruz
>this >greece AND italy
We're getting an Assassins Creed set durring the fall of the Roman Empire. There have been a few hints in Origins and I'm sure the rest will come after the next DLC.
It will prob have Aya as the main Character, as she is a legend in the lore. She is referenced as early as either 2 or BH, can't memba. Origins is the infancy of the order, but they are THE HIDDEN ONES, not ASSASSINS yet. Aya is the mother of the assassins.
Michael Nelson
that was proven to be concept art for a personal project, nothing more

that shit was already in AC2/Brotherhood, nigger AC's lore got ruined in AC3

Landon Young
Do we need another AC so fast? How long ago was Origins released? Why can't we have another Prince of Persia instead?
Robert Gray
What lore?
Isaiah White
That's the division 2: the revenge.
Jeremiah Jenkins
First of all, Hutchinson is a faggot that stated his personal opinion. He said that Egypt is boring too and we wouldn't see it, yet here we are. Plus, there are multiple AC teams with different visions. If one team says "x setting sucks", the other team might think the exact opposite. On top of that, Hutchinson left Ubisoft long ago.
Secondly, yeah it sucks that they keep wasting settings for comics and shitty games no one knows about, but they keep sending out surveys to a select few people about where AC should be set next. Japan, China and Russia have always appeared, and in the latest one (last month or so) they were there too.
All we have right now is that the guy who leaked Origins said that a trilogy was being internally discussed (Egypt, then Greece and Rome) and that the next game is codenamed Dynasty.
Andrew Hill
Origins started out as a PoP game, but they just scrapped it and reused the setting for AC instead.
Sebastian Robinson
Because Assassin's Creed exists, there's no need for Prince of Persia to exist alongside it. It's dead.
Origins released 3 months ago after a year long hiatus, but leaked an entire year beforehand. This could be another such case.
Aaron Hughes
>everyone cherry picks their favorite time period/location
It's gotta fit the rise of power in western civilization due to the struggle over and use of the first civ artifacts.
The Templars (The Order) and Assassains are two different "Illuminatis", two groups pulling the strings of history for centuries. This is why there won't be an Assassin's Creed: South America.
Owen Adams
We've got at least 1 game every year, so it's no surprise really.
Henry Rodriguez
The first AC also was supposed to be a PoP game.
It's just, I can't bring myself to care about AC plots or cast. I wanted to like Black Flag when I played it but the combat didn't felt good and when Iwas suddenly pushed into the future/present day and there was this numale "haha pirates right?" was just a massive turn off.
Brayden Butler
>he just ran from mission to mission >he never found The Truth
Kevin Young
Victorian Era AC sounded so fucking good, but then we got a faggy ass game.
Jose Myers
>there was this numale "haha pirates right?" it's just you being a bit of a cunt leave this place once in a while
Christian Carter
that was the tightest shit then the AC creator left and AC died almost immediatelly after that
Gavin Collins
>Assassin's Creed: South America Now I want a tranny main character with an awful tit job and super deep voice
Christopher Cox
>Brutus finds a piece of Eden >Shows him a future where Rome is burning >Brutus takes this as the future if Caesar remains in power >Kills him >Finds out that the future he saw was the future if Caesar was killed
Nathaniel Fisher
The setting was great, and the grappling hook was a welcome gadget but that story was shit. Fucking Evie runs off to India and marries Padjet, and returns in the dlc A NON VIOLENT ASSASSIN. She literally doesn't kill anymore. Fuck any game set in India if I'm gonna be knocking people out and setting gay traps.
Blake Peterson
damn...
Blake Garcia
>Caring about asscreed The story went to shit after they killed of Desmond. I'd say the last good one was blackflag
Jayden Thompson
Probably India and middle east
Ethan Myers
How'd they ruin that?
Isaiah Russell
It's gonna be one of these.
Jace Wright
better not be coming out this year
Lincoln Gomez
>link that accurately predicted everything about Origins said that it was probably going to be the start of a trilogy >HURR SOMEONE SAID CHINA
See you fuckers in two years when we get a game about the Second Triumvirate.
Josiah Rodriguez
All of those are pretty solid settings
Ethan Gomez
>Historical King Arthur >Dark Ages
Benjamin Stewart
Probably not, Ubi has 4 big ass games coming out this year. Far Cry 5, The Crew 2, Skull and Bones, Watch Dogs 3 When it comes to AC content, Origins has 2 DLCs (one of which got released already) and there's the AC Rogue remaster too.
Joseph Martinez
There will absolutely be a ac game this year.
That gap year in 2016 has allowed all teams to work a year extra
Bentley Diaz
whoops, yeah makes sense it was just the author's personal speculation, apart from the codename nothing actually leaked
Eli James
They changed it and made Brutus an Assassin from the very beginning
Daniel Hughes
I don't even care anymore.
Christopher Green
>caring so little he made a post about it based as fuck
Luke Collins
Fuck off shill
Henry Johnson
>Because Assassin's Creed exists, there's no need for Prince of Persia to exist alongside it This makes absolutely no sense. AC is open-world historical-futuristic clusterfuck. Prince of Persia is linear fantasy parkeour. How can they not exist at the same time?
Wyatt Campbell
I'd love to see the communist revolution setting just so that some overly sensitive people get triggered, the seething of others never ceases to make me laugh
Luke Nguyen
I didn't know there were corpse fuckers on this board.
Bentley Gonzalez
>accusing someone of shilling for a game that may not even exist and if it does will be released at least two years from now You’re right, these ad men need to be stopped
>Ubisoft totally wouldn't spread around a rumor to generate hype guys Yeah just like the last "rumor" about AC that was posted here that ended up being true like, a week later Every time a new Ubisoft game is coming up they get their shills here to make constant threads that are the same to each other, don't play ignorant
Daniel Flores
They both use historical settings, don't you think it'd overlap?
Owen Nguyen
OP here, can confirm I get paid 0.01 $ per post
Chase Cox
It's really not the same, Prince of Persia's is largely fantasy themed, with demons, monsters, angry gods, beastmen and the sort.
It's like saying you can't have a WW2 game and an Dark Ages RPG game because both are set in Europe
Dylan Thomas
Same. I was extremely hyped for it, when they leaked the setting. Because literally a few days ago I was thinking about future time periods for ass creed and I really wanted the industrial revolution in england, which was exactly what happened. The game feels uninspired and boring though.
Not China. Its obvious that the current story isnt finished yet and wont be in the next dlc which is curses and shieet. And also theres the leak about triology which is very likely to be true because Bayek is the only main character since Ezio that people didny hate.
Oliver Butler
It's going to be some middle eastern place so that they can milk the assets of the previous game for a couple of years
Easton Reyes
>inb4 its WE WUZ 3 KINGDOMS AND SHIET
Liam Morgan
I don't want any of that. Give me Greece or Rome instead.
Adrian Harris
Oddball idea, but the Maya had a dynastic system of rule in their city states and kingdoms. We know the Asscreed devs like the idea of a Maya game, since Asscreed 2 was originally going to be set in that setting, and then they shoved a ton of maya ruins in Asscreed 3 and 4.
That being said, in the last setting survey which shows, they had the "Conquest of the Americas" as a voting opition: The most infamous Maya stuff happened around 1000-400 years before the Spanish arrived, so it's likely they were considering the Aztecs over the Maya then.
They've clearly considered settings in the Americas before, though. There's no reason they couldn't set it in the Americas and involve pieces of eden withoout the main templar-assassin conflict, and obvious having it set during the Spanish conquest would allow it to include it, since Cortes is known to have been a templar in universe
Brody Brown
How do I sign up for these surveys?
Zachary Moore
who cares? Where's that space game they teased in Watch Dogs 2 with the country music?
Robert Bennett
You don't. Ubi sends these out to a small amount of people every time, and obviously you need to be a customer and have an account for uplay and shit to even stand a chance. Also, living in the land of the free.
Luis Nguyen
Fuck you weeb faggots give me china. Assassins creed embers already made the Chinese assassins look cool as fuck.
Thomas Morales
What Nioh hype?
Isaiah Hill
>playing origins >need to assassinate dude in base >infiltrate base, study targets walk pattern >ok he always passes by the cart of hay, time for ez kill >hide myself in hay >he approaches me but before he gets close enough somehow he fucking detects me >wtf I havent even moved yet >now every archer in line of sight is shooting at this hay cart that I still have not moved out of
I just ended up turning the game off and haven't played since. Is it actually supposed to work like that in origins or was that typical ubishit bugs? I havent played an AC since black flag
Asher Perry
a dynasty is just a system of government involving a line of hereditary rulers, if you push the semantics hard enough just about any ancient civilization in certain periods would be considered a dynasty so it could be pretty much anywhere
in terms of video games i'd honestly think it'd be cool to see more supernatural elements, if they DID do it in china or india there is plenty of mythology on shapeshifting and magic and while it wouldn't exactly fit into the standard of an AC game, having some sort of animal themed utility/combat forms ala sun wukong or something would be interesting
Kayden Campbell
It's Persia.
Brandon Turner
>not letting people experience a strange case of deja vu by giving us another game set in rome
Dominic Hughes
>having some sort of animal themed utility/combat forms ala sun wukong or something would be interesting
What exactly does this entail?
David Russell
>the overthrow of the Tsar empire by the communists >historical king arthur Canadian education
Oliver Bailey
just some sort of system where you can equip a totem or some sort of headdress or outfit that grants you advantages and disadvantages of the animal it's themed after, so say if you had some sort of bear artifact you would do more damage in combat, knockback enemies with your strikes, and take more damage, but you'd move slower and it would be harder to sneak - you could have some sort of playtime progression based perk system, so the more you used that specific form the more you would get out of it and it would generate at least some replayability in the different playstyles
