Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot has taken part in an interview on the official Ubisoft blog discussing the future of the highly popular Assassin’s Creed franchise and has stated that fans “can be excited about some remakes, which will allow us to revisit some of the games we’ve created in the past and modernize them.” There were rumours last year that the company was preparing a remake of the hit Assassin’s Creed game, Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, which would now seem reasonably legitimate judging from Guillemot’s comments. Here’s what he had to say:
On the Assassin’s Creed front, we’ve had Mirage, which was a leaner homage to the series’ roots, and now Shadows, which is much larger in scope and more in the vein of Odyssey/Valhalla. Looking at the future, can we expect this continued variety? Smaller games alongside bigger ones?
YG: Firstly, players can be excited about some remakes, which will allow us to revisit some of the games we’ve created in the past and modernize them; there are worlds in some of our older Assassin’s Creed games that are still extremely rich. Secondly, to answer your question, there will be plenty of experience variety. The goal is to have Assassin’s Creed games come out more regularly, but not for it to be the same experience every year. There are a lot of good things to come, including Assassin’s Creed Hexe, which we’ve announced, which is going to be a very different game from Assassin’s Creed Shadows. We’re going to surprise people, I think.
