Following the triumph of 2020's Assassin's Creed Valhalla, Ubisoft Quebec is gearing up for the next major installment in the franchise, Assassin's Creed Codenamed Red, which is set in Japan.
Developer Marc-Alexis Cote, known for his role in crafting acclaimed Assassin's Creed titles, described Codename Red as Ubisoft's "next premium flagship title," hinting at it being "the future of our open-world RPG games on Assassin's Creed."
Recently, exciting new information was revealed from Insider Gaming, providing fans with a glimpse into the upcoming Assassin's Creed Red. It appears that Ubisoft is preparing to overhaul some core gameplay elements, hinting at substantial changes for the beloved action-adventure series.
What's new in Assassin's Creed: Codename Red?
Here's what we can expect to see in Assassin's Creed Codename Red:
New Customizable Hideouts
The settlements introduced in Assassin's Creed Valhalla will be replaced by customisable hideouts.
Players will be able to customise the interiors and exteriors of their buildings and place weapons, armour, and decorations on display.
Revamped Combat System
Leaks suggest that combat in Assassin's Creed Red will draw inspiration from its predecessor, Assassin's Creed Valhalla. This means that players can expect combat to showcase visceral gore, including decapitations and dismemberment.
Redesigned Parkour and Stealth Mechanics
According to leaks, Assassin's Creed Red will introduce a revamped parkour system to enhance movement and climbing, promising smoother traversal.
New stealth mechanics will include hiding in foliage, extinguishing torches, and going prone. The leaks also revealed a new Sekiro-style grappling hook, giving players more combat and traversal options.
RTX Implementation
Yes, RTX is going to be implemented in Assassin's Creed Red, as the game will transition to a new iteration of the Anvil engine known as Anvil Pipeline.
The new Anvil Pipeline is expected to offer features like enhanced lighting and reflection effects and next-generation features like ray tracing. But this will require a complete overhaul, as it requires remaking core game animations, mechanics, and environments from scratch.
All these leaks for Assassin's Creed Red hint at an exciting future for the franchise. With a massive engine overhaul, next-gen features, revamped parkour, customisable hideouts, and intense combat, Ubisoft seems poised to deliver a groundbreaking evolution of the iconic series.
