Apparent Leaked Footage Shows Canceled Assassin's Creed Game Set in Qin Dynasty China
Ubisoft was apparently making another Assassin’s Creed game set in ancient China, except this one was a full-fat AC with a massive open world and a fancy umbrella weapon.
Ubisoft reportedly developed a canceled Assassin's Creed game titled Assassin's Creed Destiny. This ambitious project was to be set in ancient China, specifically during the Qin dynasty's transition to the Han dynasty after a violent civil war in 206 BCE. The game was envisioned as a massive open-world title for modern consoles and PC, with Ubisoft and Tencent teaming up on the project.
Destiny featured a unique assassin wielding a large umbrella, and players would have been able to customize their character's gender. The game's UI incorporated yin-yang symbols and ink brushes to reflect the Chinese setting. However, Destiny was reportedly canceled, while its mobile counterpart, Assassin's Creed Jade, is still in development.
The Mandarin game is due for release in 2025, but delays and challenges in production may extend the timeline. In other news, Assassin's Creed Hexe, another upcoming installment in the series, is experiencing its own development issues, with changes to the game's magical abilities and recent changes in leadership.
