Overview
- Two reliable sources, YouTuber j0nathan and Insider Gaming’s Tom Henderson, independently report that a full remake of the 2007 Assassin’s Creed is in development.
- Ubisoft has not confirmed the project, and outlets caution that the remake remains an unannounced title.
- The leakers say work has been underway for years, with j0nathan noting they last heard about the remake in 2023 and suggesting a reveal could be near.
- Context from Eurogamer notes a practical motive, since the first Assassin’s Creed is the only mainline entry not playable on modern consoles, which a remake could fix and fold into Ubisoft’s planned franchise hub.
- The chatter follows Ubisoft’s official reveal of Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced, which launches July 9, 2026, and has prompted speculation about timing a debut near the series’ 20th anniversary in November 2027.
