Apparently we now know how the original trilogy was supposed to end d’Assassin’s Creed conceived by Patrice Desilets: in space! It’s thanks to Lars de Widt, a Belgian student, that we hear the news. A thesis led him to speak with the original developers of the franchise in 2019. Widt says several interspersed interview snippets support his claims. Basically, Assassin’s Creed
Long story short, the last game ended in the present tense with the conflict resolution. Desmond Miles defeated Abstergo thanks to the knowledge taught by Altaïr and Ezio.

Also, 2012 is the end of the world… So Desmond and Lucy must create a new civilization somewhere else… As Adam and Eve… With a spaceship!
success d’Assassin’s Creed 2 changed those plans so the series could be remade to multiply the episodes. Especially since Patrice Desilets left Ubisoft after his disagreements with Yves Guillemot at that point. Lucy was also dropped from the series due to lead actress royalties, but Abstergo was retained in the main storyline.
Layla, the franchise’s newest protagonist, still hints at a direction involving Adam and Eve after Desmond. As part of the final sequence of Valhalla. However, de Widt confirms “that this universe offers so many possibilities that the end of history has not yet been written…”.
