Assassin’s Creed Victory to undergo name change, report claims

Ubisoft will officially unveil the next Assassin’s Creed game next week, and reports suggest it has undergone a name change.

Assassin’s Creed: Victory, as it has until now been called, was first revealed back in December following an online leak. The same site, Kotaku, has now said that it understands that it won’t actually be called Victory at all and will instead go by the name Assassin’s Creed Syndicate.

Previous reports suggest it is being developed by Ubisoft Quebec and will feature a number of new ideas, such as brawling atop of moving vehicles, a grappling hook and Spider-man style swinging.

It will also apparently be next-gen only, with no AC game scheduled for PS3 and Xbox 360 this year.

We’ll know for sure when Assassin’s Creed Syndicate/Victory will be announced next Tuesday (May 12th) at 5pm.
