The story of the birth of Assassin’s Creed is an intriguing one. Ubisoft’s plans for the game seem to involve a departure from the traditional open-world format, aiming for a more linear experience with Assassin’s Creed Hexe. This shift is noteworthy as the series has historically embraced open-world gameplay, with only occasional deviations.
Additionally, Assassin’s Creed Hexe is anticipated to introduce a single female protagonist, Elsa, equipped with supernatural abilities. Insider Gaming has provided details about gameplay, such as the ability for the protagonist to transform into a cat to create distractions. This introduces an element of control over animals, which is not unprecedented in the Assassin’s Creed series, as previous titles have featured eagle control.
Furthermore, it is revealed that Assassin’s Creed Hexe will incorporate a “Fear System” akin to the one seen in the Jack the Ripper DLC for Assassin’s Creed Syndicate, indicating potential enhancements to the concept of scaring guards for strategic advantage. The evolution of Assassin’s Creed Hexe appears to promise a departure from the series’ familiar formula, which could be refreshing given recent tendencies towards stagnation. It is hoped that this new direction will invigorate the franchise and offer a compelling and innovative experience for fans.
