Rumor: art with main characters and technical details of Assassin’s Creed about feudal Japan were leaked online

Information about the new project from Ubisoft, Assassin’s Creed: Codename Red, which, according to rumors, will take players to the era of feudal Japan, has appeared online. Insiders revealed art with the game’s main characters – samurai Yasuke and a shinobi named Nao, as well as technical specifications of the upcoming release.

One of the main leaks of the day was a photo of the main menu of the test version of Assassin’s Creed: Codename Red, posted by a Reddit user under the pseudonym bigalexander215. The image shows not only the appearance of the main characters, but also the supposed function of changing seasons in the game, which adds dynamics and realism to the gameplay.

A detailed analysis of the image revealed that the game was run on the Xbox Series X console in “Quality” mode, which provides 1800p resolution at 30fps without activating ray tracing. The date on the image points to April 3, indicating recent testing.

While there has been no official confirmation from Ubisoft, the quick removal of the image indicates a possible intervention by the company in an effort to prevent further spread of information.

The official announcement of Assassin’s Creed: Codename Red is expected to take place at the Ubisoft Forward event in June, with the game scheduled for release in 2024. This information has excited the gaming community, waiting for new details about the long-awaited project, which takes the action in the exciting era of feudal Japan.
