Ubisoft wants to release a new Assassin's Creed game every 6 months!

Ubisoft has big plans for the Assassin's Creed series and wants to release a new game every six months in the future. Yes, you read that correctly. Every 6 months! But what is behind this strategy? Why does Ubisoft want to release so many titles in a short period of time? What does this mean for game quality?

According to Gaming Insider reports Tom Henderson Ubisoft wants to release ten new Assassin's Creed games by 2030 (via XboxTwo Podcast).

The idea of ​​​​releasing a new Assassin's Creed game every six months comes from the desire to constantly provide fans of the series with new content. The basic idea won't be new, after all Activision provides Call of Duty fans with a new game every year. EA Sports “digitizes” many sports games every year. With this strategy, Ubisoft wants to strengthen ties with the community and ensure that fans can regularly experience new adventures in the world of Assassins.

Assassin's Creed in the Loop: How should game quality be guaranteed?

One of the biggest questions surrounding this announcement concerns the quality of the new titles. Can Ubisoft ensure that every game lives up to high expectations? The answer to this question remains to be seen, as the high frequency of releases may put developers under pressure. Ubisoft has previously hinted that it is working on a new production model that will allow it to have multiple teams working on different projects at the same time. This can help maintain the quality of games while increasing release speed.

With a semi-annual release, Ubisoft can certainly “take over” – after all, Assassin's Creed Shadows was recently delayed. The development team insisted on postponement in order to provide a good match for the fans. It is also questionable whether all the games are AAA games. After all, many developers have already realized that smaller games definitely have their appeal, including for us gamers. We don't all have 200 hours to “play” a video game.

The next Assassin's Creed game, Shadows, will be released on February 14, 2025.
