New Assassin’s Creed To Be Revealed At E3, It Seems

Very soon.

The new Assassin’s Creed game that Ubisoft confirmed today during its earnings briefing, may be formally announced at E3. Ubisoft sent an email blast today, informing fans to “stay tuned for E3.”

The image included in the email shows the famous Assassin’s Creed logo and the tag line, “Make history.” That’s all there is to go on at this time, unfortunately.

Ubisoft has yet to announce when its E3 briefing will take place this year, though history suggests that it’ll take place on the afternoon of Monday, June 12.

Ubisoft’s E3 briefing might also bring more news about the just-announced games Far Cry 5 and The Crew 2, while surprises are also surely in store as well.

Going back to the new Assassin’s Creed game, it is rumored to be titled Assassin’s Creed: Origins. An off-screen image purporting to be a “first look” at Origins was also leaked alongside the name. It featured a bow-wielding character on a boat, calling to mind elements of Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag.
