It is not surprising that a new Assassin's Creed is coming. That it will be announced today, but definitely: While rumors and assumptions rolled over on Reddit, Resetera and Co., Ubisoft started a livestream with the artist BossLogic at 2 p.m. today. He creates an artwork live and thus reveals the setting for the new Assassin's Creed.
The rumor mill was already bubbling in advance
Previously, insiders already suspected a reveal about Assassin's Creed: Valhalla for today. The rumors were confirmed by the well-known and generally credible industry insider Shinobi in the Resetera forum. He answered the question whether the Ubisoft event today had to do with "Assassin's Creed Vikings, the Xbox or Sony" with a simple "yes".
The well-known insider Daniel Ahmad also referred to a tweet from Ubisoft China via Twitter, who indicated an important announcement today and also advised fans outside of China to keep an eye on the publisher's social media channels.
In addition, there were rumors on Reddit. Among other things, the Czech streamer Agraleus pointed out that a big announcement will follow today around 7 p.m. as part of the Ubisoft live stream. It is quite possible that the motif of the artwork – and thus the setting – will be recognizable. It is still unclear whether Ubisoft will then release further information such as the name or gameplay details.
