Assassin's Creed Hexe is currently said to be targeting a late 2027 release. That is according to a new report from a long-time Ubisoft insider who outlined several other previously unconfirmed details about the game, including a claim that one of the most iconic characters from the Assassin's Creed franchise may return in the upcoming title.
Originally announced during a September 2022 Ubisoft Forward presentation, Assassin's Creed Codename Hexe was positioned as one of the next flagship entries in the long-running franchise, alongside Codename Red, which was later revealed and released as Assassin's Creed Shadows.
