Ubisoft Has Three Assassin’s Creed Games In Development

Ubisoft isn’t letting up on Assassin’s Creed, not even for a year to give the franchise a break. In fact, according to the publisher’s boss, there are currently three AC games in development.

That’s what Ubisoft founder and CEO Yves Guillemot told Kotaku, adding that his company has a strategy in place to prevent the game from suffering the dreaded franchise fatigue.

We are making sure the teams who are creating the different iterations have enough time—two years, three years, so that they can take risk and they can change the concept enough so that it can be appealing and fresh.

Really, what we see is that we can have the capacity to regularly come with innovation. That is, for me, the formula: if you can really change the game on a regular basis and bring in innovation your fans want a product very regularly. Our job is to make sure the teams have enough power, enough energy and enough time to take the necessary steps to create a high quality game.

Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag, the latest to be unveiled by Ubisoft, sees a release October 29th on PS3, Xbox 360 and Wii U. The game will also see a release on next-gen platforms, however no release date has been solidified.
