Lol the timing of our posts xD
I was first by a minute, so now we must fight in internet combat on who gets to be the greatest forum ninja.
Massive arent making The Division 3. They are finishing up on Avatar and moving to a Star Wars game next. In their scale of games it doesnt make much sense for Massive to be working on multiple projects in full production simultaniously.
I think Div 3 is still coming, just not till after their Star Wars project…. Unless they also wanna do sequels to that and Avatar, in which case yeah, series may be done/moved over to a different team
Aside from Assassin's Creed Infinity the rumours suggest that the next AC game to release will be a smaller game, set before Valhalla, located in (and probably around) Baghdad, with Basim as the main character. The suggestion for much of the time that these rumours were floating around was that Ubisoft weren't sure if this was a 2022 game or early 2023 - them leaving it this late means it's virtually certain to be 2023.
That sounds like it could be cool. Does the small size mean they might be going back to the old formula of stealth and parkour?
That's the suggestion. I wouldn't take that as anywhere near definite though. The rumours were that this was Valhalla DLC that was meant to offer a shorter more linear experience, something a bit more like the older AC games, and that it then got spun into its own game. That's a major change to what was intended and it's possible that other changes happened as a result.
Yeah. Might be teased in some form just to turn it into something a tiny bit more solid than a blog post, but anything big would overshadow the other AC game.
Sounds like a direction I wanna head in. Hopefully we get the dense city vibe back from Unity. Maybe the parkour too.
