Assassin’s Creed: Victory will be out next year and it’s set in Victorian London

Last year, leaks forced Ubisoft to unveil Assassin’s Creed: Unity and Assassin’s Creed: Rogue a bit earlier than they wanted to. And now it’s happening again.

A rumor report on Kotaku revealed that next Fall’s Assassin’s Creed game, which is in development at Ubisoft Quebec, will be set in Victorian London in the late 1800s. Presumably, that means Jack the Ripper will be outed as a Templar before too long. Currently known as Assassin’s Creed: Victory, the game will add a grappling hook to your Assassin’s arsenal and several other English touches.

Kotaku’s full overview of Victory is definitely worth a read, especially in light of the fact that Ubisoft confirmed to Joystiq that every word of it is true:

It is always unfortunate when internal assets, not intended for public consumption, are leaked. And, while we certainly welcome anticipation for all of our upcoming titles, we’re disappointed for our fans, and our development team, that this conceptual asset is now public. The team in our Quebec studio has been hard at work on the particular game in question for the past few years, and we’re excited to officially unveil what the studio has been working on at a later date. In the meantime, our number one priority is enhancing the experience of Assassin’s Creed Unity for players.

Assassin’s Creed: Victory will be released for the PC, PS4, and Xbox One in Fall 2015.
