Ubisoft rules out new Assassin's Creed remakes, Hexe update in 2027

Ubisoft published its Assassin's Creed Fall 2026 Update on October 29, 2026, presented by Jean Guesdon, the franchise's head of content. Beyond Valhalla's New Game+, arriving November 5 and already covered by Geekiki (read here), the update resets expectations for the series: no other remake is actively in development right now, and Codename Hexe's next major news only arrives in 2027.

No other remake in development

Ubisoft says it currently has “no other Assassin's Creed remake actively in development”. Its teams are already focused on the next chapter of the franchise, including unannounced projects with new settings and stories. The door is not closed, though: the company says it will keep exploring opportunities to bring classic titles back.

Black Flag Resynced's final major update

Black Flag Resynced has received its final major update, adding New Game+, Nightmare Mode, new rewards, finishers, trinkets and more customization options. Rewards include Blackbeard's iconic outfit, Edward's London attire and fresh customization for the Jackdaw and its crew. Smaller quality-of-life updates will continue over the coming months.

Codename Hexe: next major update in 2027

Codename Hexe, described as a darker Assassin's Creed experience, is making steady progress, but there is still work ahead. Ubisoft will share its next major update on the project in 2027, with no date, platforms or release window. The Hexe section ends with a cipher-style code Ubisoft did not explain — for now it is a puzzle for the community, not a decoded reveal.

Codename Invictus and other projects

Codename Invictus, the PvP multiplayer project, went through a private Insiders Session with hundreds of players and is being reworked based on feedback: testers saw great potential in its foundations but wanted more of the pillars that define Assassin's Creed. It remains in development with no announced date. Outside games, the live-action Assassin's Creed series for Netflix is nearing the end of production in Rome, Italy, with composer Hannah Peel scoring it; there is no release date yet. The franchise turns 20 in 2027, and Ubisoft is preparing a year of reveals, updates, rewards and events to celebrate.
