'Assassin’s Creed 2020': Ubisoft CEO reveals exciting plans for the game

Ubisoft's games are known for its massive expansive worlds. But, over time, gamers are looking for a more focused and more meaningful narrative. Recently, Ubisoft's boss shared the team's plans for "Assassin’s Creed 2020."

The "Assassin’s Creed" series is one of the proponents of the open world, collectathon genre. But, with the arrival of "Assassin’s Creed Origins" and Assassin’s Creed Odyssey," there has been a significant shift in terms of packing as much story in the game. In the case of "Assassin’s Creed Odyssey," the narrative culminates in coming back to the player's family and hunting members of an evil group.

But, it does not end there; you have to know your real father and your ultimate purpose. Aside from those, there are dozens of hunts, smaller quests, side missions, camps to assault, and bosses to wage war. Are we going to see those too in "Assassin’s Creed 2020?"

Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot, in a recent interview, was asked about the same by GamesIndustry.biz. The Ubisoft executive noted that their goal is to ensure that "Assassin’s Creed 2020" will have "Assassin’s Creed Unity" within an Odyssey. If players want a story that runs for 15 long hours, they can have it in "Assassin’s Creed 2020," the CEO said.

Additionally, Guillemot stated that players will enjoy other stories in "Assassin’s Creed 2020" living in that particular world and pursuing what the game purports each player to pursue. Moreover, there are also many Unity-like experiences in the next iteration of the popular series. "Assassin's Creed 2020" will also have an average of 60 hours playtime and that players will get a lot from investing their time and money in the upcoming game, according to Ubisoft CEO. Gaming Bolt predicted that based in Guillemot's statement, the next series iteration will most likely center on Norse mythology where players will use mythical powers and weapons. Players will still be completing kill quests, assaulting outposts, and grinding XP to get better loot.

"Assassin’s Creed 2020" might allow players to meet various Viking clans and enjoy daily factions in that manner. Rumors have it that the upcoming series iteration will enable players to have an influence on the economy of various regions. Most likely, "Assassin’s Creed 2020" will have Conquest battles similar to "Odyssey" that while it appears flashy, it loses meaning and substance in the long run.
