‘Assassin’s Creed: The Ezio Collection’ listed for November, specs and platforms leaked
Early this year, Ubisoft made an announcement that it will not have an “Assassin’s Creed” this year. The studio has declared this as part of the company’s goal to step back and reexamine the franchise and its direction.
While there haven’t been any announcements from Ubisoft, a new leak may prove that fans can still expect something from the “Assassin’s Creed” franchise.
Promotional materials for the “Assassin’s Creed: The Ezio” Collection” was spotted first by French publication Gameblog. What’s interesting about the collection is that it does not introduce a new game per se, but rather a collection of the old ones running at 1080p resolution and 30FPs graphics.
The games allegedly included in the collection are “Assassin’s Creed II,” “Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood” and “Assassin’s Creed: Revelations.” In addition, all of the DLCs for the three games will be part of the bundle, as well as two animated movies, “Assassin’s Creed: Lineage” and “Assassin’s Creed: Embers.”
This is not the first time that the collection has been spotted. Earlier, it had already appeared on the Korean Ratings Board, without too much follow-up until now.
Even with no hints or announcements from Ubisoft, “Assassin’s Creed: The Ezio Collection” already has a release date. Gematsu spotted the collection listed on Amazon Italy. The release date pegged for the collection is Nov. 17. It will only be available for the PS4 and Xbox One.
For now, the “Assassin’s Creed: The Ezio Collection” should be taken with a grain of salt, at least until Ubisoft makes an official announcement.
The next “Assassin’s Creed” will be out in 2017. There are still no details as to what the storyline will be, though the most dominant rumours have suggested that it will be set in Egypt. Later this year, fans can look forward to the “Assassin’s Creed” movie starring Michael Fassbender and Marion Cotillard. It will premiere in theaters on Dec. 21.
