Ubisoft has been in a teaser sort of mood these last few days with official announcements of FarCry 5 and The Crew 2, so why not a few more? Ubi has recently tweeted a GIF with a logo and the phrase “A New Era Begins” (See Below) via their Assassins Creed UK account

Rumors have been circling around the fan base assuming that the game will be called “Assassins Creed: Origins”, where the setting will be located in Egypt. There have been some leaked images that include a bow wielding protagonist on a boat, which appears to be bringing back the nautical aspect of the popular installment, Black Flags.

The game is also rumored to be featuring both a male and female protagonist for the first time in the series. If these rumors prove to be true, we should expect to see various changes in the Assassins Creed we have known for years.

With an announcement this close to E3, we should fully expect to see a demonstration or trailers for the game along with the official title over the next few weeks. With Ubisoft confirming that the next installment will be launched before the end of the fiscal year that ends on March 31, 2018, there could be no better time to pull out all the stops and put on a show this summer.
