Rumors for another release of an "Assassin's Creed" game have been confirmed by Ubisoft. Although it's not going to be a new title, fans will relive the story in Ezio Auditore da Firenze's parkour boots once again in "Assassin's Creed: The Ezio Collection."
According to DualShockers, the collection released for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, which will include "Assassin's Creed II," "Assassin's Creed Brotherhood," and "Assassin's Creed Revelations," all with remastered graphics. Judging by its title, of course, the collection features all the games with Ezio Auditore as the protagonist.
With the better graphics suited for the latest consoles, the collection will include all of the DLC expansions as well. However, the multiplayer modes from "Assassin's Creed Brotherhood," and "Assassin's Creed Revelations" will not be featured anymore.
To even add more to the story of the Italian Master Assassin, "Assassin's Creed: The Ezio Collection" is said even to include the short films "Assassin's Creed Embers" and "Assassin's Creed Lineage" also, which expands the story of Ezio Auditore for fans to enjoy.
Additionally, players who get to buy "The Ezio Collection" will get a free movie ticket each to see the live movie adaptation of "Assassin's Creed" up to $8, as stated by Gamespot. The movie coming out in December will star Michael Fassbender as the protagonist Aguilar.
It was claimed by Ubisoft that the any new title to the "Assassin's Creed" franchise will not be released this year. Nevertheless, the game company still plans to release another title in 2017. This possible new title, subtitled "Empire," is said to be set in Egypt, and will be considered as a revamp to the series. The mechanics will be similar to the "Witcher" series, with features such as player progression and a freeform combat system as a possibility. Other than the rumors of the possible new title, Ubisoft hasn't disclosed any other future games in the series.
In the meantime, "Assassin's Creed: The Ezio Collection" is set for release on Nov. 15 in the US and Nov. 17 in Europe.
