Ubisoft is poised to expand the Assassin's Creed brand with two new titles. These titles span different platforms and time periods. This move is a clear indication of Ubisoft's strategy to broaden the Assassin's Creed universe.

Ubisoft expands the franchise with mobile and PC entries

This includes moving beyond the traditional console/PC base. Fans can anticipate a wider variety of experiences. This includes a specific mobile game and a massive historical saga.

The first of these new games is codenamed Mars. It is a game based in Ancient Rome. Ubisoft's focus on the new title is to capitalize on the growing awareness of the Assassin's Creed brand thanks to recent media adaptations.

The second new title is codenamed Pocket. This is a mobile game based in Jerusalem. These two new titles announced by Ubisoft show a clear separation in philosophy.

One is aimed at the PC/Console players. The other is aimed at the mobile gaming segment.

On top of these new titles, Ubisoft has delayed the release of an existing title. The title in question is Assassin's Creed Hexe. It is a game based in medieval Germany.

The new release date for this game is set at 2028. The game's original release date was set to be 2027. This points to a delay in order to get some more development time. This delay impacts the near term future of the Assassin's Creed brand.

There is speculation that the Mars title may be related to a new series on Netflix. An insider, J0nathan, has made this speculation based on shared franchise history. This is just a speculation at this point and not a verified fact. Tom Henderson, an insider in the gaming industry, has said he cannot verify the Mars/Pocket codenames to the necessary standard.
