God forbid a Ubisoft game actually says anything. There are quite a few irons in the Assassin's Creed fire at the moment, from the continued monetization of The Ninja One to the ongoing development of The Witch One to the remake of The Pirate One, but at least one has reportedly been doused. Sources inside Ubisoft have leaked the development, then cancellation, of an Assassin's Creed game set in the Civil War and Reconstruction.
From Game File:
In this Reconstruction-era Assassin's Creed, gamers would play as a Black man who had been formerly enslaved in the South and moved west to start a new life. Recruited by the series' Assassins, he would return to the South to fight for justice in a conflict that would, among other things, see him confront the emergence of the Ku Klux Klan.
That's
