Over the year , Ubisoft ’s explore plenty of meter period and location for theAssassin ’s Creedfranchise , from ancient Egypt and Greece to the Italian Renaissance and the American and French Revolutions . ( Still no Wild West or Japan , though . ) The sci - fi vanity of present day part using a machine to relive the retentiveness ofancestorsgenetic and otherwise is what give thefranchise its lifeblood , for better and unsound . But back when it was in the first place being contrive as a standard trilogy starring then - protagonist Desmond Miles in the modern day , the series would ’ve had a much weirder trajectory .
Specifically , 2012 ’s Assassin ’s Creed III would ’ve conclude with the series going to space . Lars de Wildt , a research worker for conspiracy theory and religious belief in digital media civilization , of late published his research that come from verbalise to multiple ex - Creed devs in 2019 . Interviewing plot designer and serial creator Patrice Désilets and AC3 ’s creative director Alex Hutchinson , de Wildt learned the modern day storyline would ’ve had a more epic goal to the war between the present day avatar of the Assassins and Templars .
Desmond , de Wildt write , would ’ve defeated the malign corporation Abstergo ( run by Templars ) by “ using the combined knowledge and skills of all his antecedent , include AC1 ’s Altair and AC2 ’s Ezio . ” And the 2012 doom plot line the games had been gradually building to would ’ve seen Desmond and fellow Assassin Lucy be the new Adam and Eve ( who prove up in AC2 ) on another planet . Asked by de Wildt where the two would go , Désilets thirstily replied : “ Boum ! It ’s a freaking starship . ” Many fans believe that the dealership ’s precursor race the Isu were aliens , and presumptively , they would ’ve had a spacecraft for the two homo to stow away in .

Though this did n’t terminate up happening — Désilets pass on Ubisoft in 2010 before the release of 2010 ’s Brotherhood , the game where Lucy was killed off , and Desmond died in AC3 to eventually make way for current friend Layla Hassan . Still , it would ’ve been quite the batshit finis to the serial publication . If the enfranchisement move on after that original closing , it would ’ve been interesting ; you could easily opine Ubisoft letting the franchise go on ice for a twain of years before bring it back and blame up from that “ humanity in space ” thread .
Changing tracks on AC3 has n’t stopped Ubisoft and the franchise from getting eldritch with the franchise : recent installments like Odyssey and Valhalla have played heavily with the mythology of their various time menstruum . It ’s potential that the serial will return to the Adam and Eve screw thread in late game , and maybe even revisit that interstellar escape cock design .
