Assassin’s Creed Hexe is at least one year away, insider claims

Assassin’s Creed: Codename Hexe, the next original mainline entry in Ubisoft’s long-running franchise following Shadows, won’t arrive until at least the second half of 2027, according to industry insider NateTheHate. The leaker, known for reliable industry information, responded to questions about the game’s unveiling timeline, explaining that announcing it prematurely would be counterproductive given the distance to launch.

“Game won’t launch until second half of 2027, at [the] earliest. They don’t need to rush a reveal/announcement,” NateTheHate stated on X. This means fans can expect to wait considerably longer before seeing an official reveal or announcement from Ubisoft, with the full launch still months beyond that timeframe.

The extended development timeline suggests Ubisoft is taking a deliberate, measured approach to the franchise’s next chapter, prioritizing quality over rapid announcements.
