Assassin’s Creed officially has 3 brand-new games coming soon
Ubisoft has three brand-new Assassin's Creed games in development, underscoring that the franchise shows no sign of slowing as it approaches its 20th anniversary in 2027. The confirmation follows the recent, well-received remake Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced, which holds a 93% Critics Recommend score on OpenCritic, and strong recent entries such as Mirage and Shadows. Details on all three upcoming titles remain scarce, with no release windows or, in some cases, platforms yet announced.
The three games are Codename Hexe, Jade and Invictus, all originally revealed in 2022. Hexe is described as a darker, narrative-driven experience likely set amid 16th-century European witch hunts, though leaks suggest previously rumoured magical abilities have been cut following 2026 leadership reshuffles. Jade is a mobile title for Android and iOS set in Qin Dynasty China in 215 BC, offering series-first full character customisation, while Invictus is a PvP multiplayer game led by For Honor veterans at Ubisoft Montreal, with its setting and story still unknown. Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot has also hinted at further remakes of older games.
In short
- Ubisoft confirms three new Assassin's Creed games: Hexe, Jade and Invictus.
- All lack release dates; details remain limited before the 2027 anniversary.
- Guillemot also teases further modernised remakes of older titles.
