It seems that Ubisoft is saying goodbye to the numbers when it comes to the Assassin’s Creed franchise and hello to titles being named after their theme.
According to Assassin’s Creed: Unity developer Arnaud Jamin, Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag is the last numbered entry in the series, with Assassin’s Creed: Unity ushering in a new era.
This change was also made in hopes of being more inviting to future gamers who have never played the series before who would be apprehensive of playing a title with so many game’s in the series.
Assassin’s Creed: Unity will release on November 11th for PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4.
