People~Today we will talk about the news about the new work of "Assassin's Creed". Ubisoft has not revealed any specific news about the new work in the live broadcast event of "Assassin's Creed" for the 15th anniversary of "Assassin's Creed", but it only said that a special event will be held in September, and the future of the series will be revealed in the special event.
And "Assassin's Creed: Valhalla" will usher in the final chapter of Ivor by the end of the year, which shows that the story of Valhalla will usher in the finale, and the baton will be transferred to the new work. According to the leak, the name code of the new work of "Assassin's Creed" is temporarily called Rift. In fact, it was originally planned to be the DLC of "Assassin's Creed: Valhalla", but later it became a new work and released separately.
The story summary is probably that Basim was born and raised in Baghdad, and later joined the Invisible and became an assassin master with his strong skills. Players think of Basim as a highly respected deadly person, whose wisdom and strategy are far beyond his age. Basim is the reincarnation of the Ishu clan Loki, and his identity is very special.
As he grows older, his dual consciousness will also awaken, and the influence and contradictions of his multiple personalities are also a point of development in this story. Loki's nature will potentially affect the invisible, and Basim's actions will be disturbed.
In terms of gameplay, it may return to early game modes, such as classic sneak sword battles, dynamic parkours, stealth and concealment. However, compared with the Myth Trilogy, this work abandons the open world setting, so the scale is also relatively small. Basim (Loki) is the protagonist, and the story takes place in the Iraqi capital Baghdad, where other well-known Middle Eastern cities may also appear.
On March 24, Carlo Rota (Basim's voice actor) posted a motion capture photo on INS. Although there was no official announcement that he would participate in the motion arrest work for the new work of Assassin's Creed, when netizens asked if it was Basim, Carlo Rota's reply was also meaningful: "Maybe... (maybe)".
According to industry insider Tom Henderson, "Assassin's Creed: Rift" (tentatively named) will be released in early 2023.
