Assassin's Creed 2020 Will Supposedly be Set in Ancient Rome
Last year, we reported that the 2020 entry in the Assassin's Creed franchise could be set in Japan - and with a pretty good reason to assume so, judging by an opening cinematic in Assassin's Creed III that may have preemptively roadmapped Ubisoft's plans for the new trilogy (consisting of Origins and Odyssey too). However, a new rumour has popped up that could suggest that Assassin's Creed's 2020 release would be heading back to a familiar location.
The information was posted anonymously on a message board on Fireden, which provides details on what the new Assassin's Creed game will entail. Supposedly, the game will be set in Ancient Rome, and take place around 193 AD; the same time in which Marcus Aurelius' reign ended, and his struggles with his son, Commodus, became known. The setting would make sense if they were to go further back in Roman history (as seen by Origins and Odyssey), though it directly contrasts the more viable evidence of the next game taking place in Japan.
The story will focus more on the First Civilization, and the game's map would feature mainland Italy as well as playable areas in Gaul and Germania. The subtitle of the game will be "Legion".
We recommend taking this with a massive grain of salt, though, as it's entirely possible that the anonymous source could be faking information. Until we hear something from Ubisoft themselves, tread lightly on this information. We do know that this next big Assassin's Creed title will only release in 2020, with this year's gap being filled by Assassin's Creed III Remastered.
