Sneaking up on Codename Red
Ubisoft have been pretty tight-lipped about AssCreed Red. We know it’s set in Japan. Ubisoft said we can “live a very powerful shinobi fantasy.” And this one comes from Ubisoft Quebec, the studio that led development on Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, also known as the best RPG-ish one. Expect a world map that’ll turn your eyes into mush as you tackle every marker.
Ubisoft’s recent AssCreeds have been real endurance tests due to their never-ending size, but thankfully, the series is taking a small break with this year’s Assassin’s Creed Mirage. Our Ed said “The game looks to deliver a familiar stealth ‘em up for AC fans new and old who want less RPG guff and more of a focus on actual, methodical murdering,” in hisAssassin’s Creed Mirage preview. Good signs all around.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage comes out on October 12th. We should learn more about Codename Red, the creepier Codename Hexe, and the still-confusingAssassin’s Creed Infinityhub after that point.
