Ubisoft has been clear that it is working on “several” new games in the Assassin’s Creed franchise. One of those games is Assassin’s Creed Hexe, a new open-world AC game that has been in development at Ubisoft Montreal in some form or another since 2022. Now, according to Tom Henderson on the Insider Gaming podcast, the combat for Assassin’s Creed Hexe is being reworked, with a contortionist coming in to record the motion capture scenes. He also adds that the game looks to be launching sometime in 2027, despite the combat reworks. Ubisoft Montreal, the studio in charge of Hexe, was also leading the development of the recently cancelled Prince of Persia: Sands of Time remake, although it seems unlikely that Hexe would be cancelled this late into development, especially since it seems to follow the established Assassin’s Creed format rather closely. .
