Assassinator's Creed is no stranger to expansions and DLC. Valhalla and Odyssey got crossover content last yr, and Valhalla'south Dawn of Ragnarok is reportedly coming side by side month. Reportedly, a time to come expansion for the game has besides been turned into its ain standalone game.

The study comes from Bloomberg, corroborated by Eurogamer. No proper name was given for the expansion-turned-game, merely it'south said to star Basim, the villain of Valhalla. Fellow Ubisoft game Far Cry 6 had playable villain DLC itself, and then it's interesting to see Assassin's Creed spin that content off into a total game. "Full" in this context ways a "smaller, stealth-focused" title, co-ordinate to Eurogamer. The map size is said to be equal to ane region from Valhalla or Odyssey, rather than the massive worlds of those games.

Late last year, Eurogamer also inquired about more than Basim backstory in an interview with Valhalla's mail-launch producer José Araiza. "The answer is yes," Araiza said at the fourth dimension. "I'm not going to requite you more than details, just yeah, you lot definitely will come across more of Basim." That certainly lines upwardly with this written report.

This new standalone game will reportedly release in tardily 2022 or 2023, but it's not the simply time to come Assassin's Creed game we know about. Assassin'south Creed Infinity is in the works, though nosotros might not see information technology until 2024 or 2025. Information technology won't be a gratis-to-play game, but it still be "very innovative," according to Ubisoft.
