In an interview with Variety, Guillemot confirmed that two new Far Cry games are in development. He described them as “very promising”, but did not share further details.
He also confirmed that several Assassin’s Creed projects are in progress. These include not only single-player titles but also multiplayer experiences. This news may reassure fans who were worried that multiplayer projects had been canceled along with the remake of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time.
Guillemot said, “We have a solid pipeline underway across Vantage Studios. Under the ‘Assassin’s Creed’ brand, several titles are in development, spanning both single-player and multiplayer experiences, with the ambition to further grow a community that exceeded 30 million players last year. On ‘Far Cry,’ anticipation is high, and we currently have two very promising projects in development.”
Among the rumored projects, Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag Remake is getting a lot of attention. The game was recently rated, which suggests that an official reveal may happen soon. In addition, reports say the remake will be more than just a visual upgrade, with enhanced gameplay mechanics and new systems, including improved combat and wildlife ecosystems.
He also spoke about the strong state of the Rainbow Six franchise. According to Guillemot, “‘Rainbow Six’ is coming back strongly, recently passing 2.5 million players daily, and will continue to grow. The Six Invitational in Paris drew impressive viewership on-site and online, and the launch of the Chinese league alongside participation in the first Esports Nation Cup shows that the franchise’s global esports footprint is expanding.”
He added, “We have also outlined our ambitious Year 11 roadmap and confirmed that the highly-anticipated ‘Rainbow Six Mobile,’ which makes ‘Rainbow Six’ playable from anywhere, will now launch worldwide on February 23, 2026.”
Overall, Ubisoft is putting its attention on its main franchises, including new Far Cry titles, more Assassin’s Creed games, and ongoing support for Rainbow Six.
In other news, an Assassin’s Creed game set during the post-American Civil War period was reportedly canceled, with reasons including the backlash surrounding Assassin’s Creed: Shadows and the current political climate in the United States.
