Assassin’s Creed Ragnarok Leaked; Cross-Gen Game Set In Viking Age, Features RPG Mechanics, Co-Op And More – Rumor
By Francesco De Meo


The next entry in the Assassin’s Creed series is apparently going to be named Assassin’s Creed Ragnarok, and it will be set in the Viking Age.

A recent leak has surfaced on ***** complete with some off-screen screenshots. The game will be set in the Viking Age, and the main character will be an ally of Ragnar Lodbrok, a legendary Viking who fans of the History TV Show Vikings should know well, who will aid in the formation of the Great Heathen Army which invaded England in 865.

Assassin’s Creed Ragnarok is going to be a cross-gen title, and it’s apparently releasing next year. Full details of the leak have been summarized by ResetEra forums member dex3108, and they can be found below.

-Settlements have some customization and in game economy systems

Will wait to see more but meh if true. Assassin's Creed games lean far too much onto the European spectrum as the majority of their games either take place in Europe or is affected by Europeans. Even though they did a good job imo switching things up with Origins and having a majority of those Egyptians black, they still set it during the Greek era thus making it an Greco-Egyptian affair.

First day for me.

Thought Rome was next but this will be a nice change of scenery.
Hope the first AC next gen will be China

It will just feel like a struggle GOW. I know they’re different games, but just feels like they’re trying to get on that Norse wave.

:snoop: Just give us ancient Japan. That’s what the majority has been wanting for a while anyway.
:yeshrug: y'all would be calling it a struggle Sekiro and Ghost of Tsushima.

The fact none of these has been made for Japan/China or South America blows my mind. I would LOVE one set in the early mid 1900s Sub-Saharan Africa round the time all those nations started de-colonizing.

Even the Anglo-Ashanti wars in Ghana.
The Bakumatsu in Japan.
The Rape of Nanking in China.

there's a TON of conflicts/world event they could cover.

Nah a game revolving around ancient Japan would have endless possibilities for assassins. The fact that they’re trying to make Vikings into assassins is just silly imo.

They need to just do away with this franchise and start a new one with the direction they’re taking their games now. They’ll be decent games, but just won’t have to force the assassin aspect on cultures that don’t even fukk with the concept like that.

There’s a good chance this is fake anyway, but I honestly won’t be surprised if they decided to hop on the Norse wave.
