Ubisoft Toronto is moving on from Rainbow Six: Patriots and Splinter Cell: Blacklist to begin making the sequel to Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag in partnership with Ubisoft Montreal. Black Flag is due out this fall, and the next Assassin’s Creed will likely arrive the following year.
The Assassin’s Creed project is just of five projects in the pipeline for the Toronto studio. Speaking with Polygon, managing director Jade Raymond said that the team has “two big collaborations coming that we’re not talking about, on two of the biggest franchises at Ubisoft. We also have two new IP.” One of Ubisoft Toronto’s mystery titles will be Splinter Cell-related.
Raymond is remaining mum on the details of each of Ubisoft Toronto’s new games, but did note:
“The thing that’s great to me is that there is still some of my favorite people who, you know, we were in the trenches shipping that first one. We lived through all of that stuff together and some of those guys are still on the franchise and have been there. So it’s a just for me to work with some of those people again.”
