Seeing Ubisoft’s lacklustre delivery with Unity, it’s easy to be sceptical of another release in the series without even a year’s delay. Some details have already been leaked with an official reveal by Ubisoft coming tomorrow, the 12th of May.
Assassin’s Creed Victory, now also being called Assassin’s Creed Syndicate, is set in 19th century London, during the Victorian era, with an as-of-yet unnamed male protagonist.
While there are many speculations about what Ubisoft will do with this latest entry, here’s a list of what we expect from this amazing franchise-
1. Culturally and Historically Rich and Diverse: While Assassin’s Creed 3 was rich with historic events and figures, it wasn’t always visible in the world around. What we hope to see is the cultural richness in the world and story like that in Assassin’s Creed Revelations.
2. Bug Free: Fun as it might be to see skinless faces and eyes popping out of said faces, we had enough of that in Unity. So, Ubi, please give us a tested, refined and finished product.
3. Fascinating Exploration: Remember those amazing caverns form Revelations and those exciting caves in AC 2 and Brotherhood? We’d be so happy to see those making a comeback!!
4. Weapon Variety: Sure there are tons of weapons to choose from in the previous games, but it was never compelling to change weapons much, nor did they feel very different. With fist brawling making a return in Victory/Syndicate, we hope to see greater diversity in weapon and combat style.
5. Fun Missions: Ok, so we look back on Revelations again, and remember how much fun we had playing it’s missions. It wasn’t the run-of-the-mill go there-kill him missions. Hell, you even got to dress up as a jester and sing some ridiculously hilarious songs. We hope to see such variety with Victory/Syndicate as well.
Alright folks, so those are our expectations. What are you expecting to see in the new Assassin’s Creed? Be sure to know in the comments below. And, check back at Gaming Central for more news on Assassin’s Creed Victory.
