As we can read in BloombergUbisoft has a new project with the name on hand Assassin’s Creed Infinitya massive online platform that will evolve over time, according to people familiar with its evolution.
While previous Assassin’s Creed games have evolved into specific historical scenes, such as ancient Greece or Ptolemaic Egypt, Infinity will feature several scenes with room to expand to others in the months and years following its debut. The individual games on the platform will have a different look and feel, but they will all be connected.
According to the information from the popular journalist Jason Schreier, this project will mark a major change for the Assassin’s Creed franchise, which has launched a new title almost every year since 2007. It was also commented that Ubisoft Montreal and Ubisoft Quebec will unite as a single team for Infinity, with Quebec leading the franchise .
Assassin’s Creed Infinity could emulate the formula in GTA V.
Inspired by performances around the clock like Fortnite and Grand Theft Auto V, this live online platform will be able to keep players hooked over the years by constantly adding new content or changing the experience in a drastic way. The fifth installment of Grand Theft Auto, which has sold more than 140 million copies largely thanks to its constantly updated multiplayer mode, is approaching its eighth anniversary with versions available for a third generation of video consoles.
Service games generate huge revenue over time to engage players and start spending money on specialized content in the game. GTA V helped keep the actions of its editor, Take-Two Interactive Software Inc., up 42% from the beginning of last year. During the same period, Ubisoft’s actions took a turn for the worse. Following the news of Assassin’s Creed Infinity, operations resumed on Wednesday in intraday operations.
