Ubisoft Confirms Hexe Progress, Pauses New Remakes and Revises Multiplayer Plan

A 2027 timetable for Hexe news signals a shift to new Assassin’s Creed projects and clearer expectations for fans.

Overview

  • Ubisoft said Thursday in its Fall 2026 franchise update that Assassin’s Creed Hexe is still in active development and that the next major company communication about the game is scheduled for 2027, while stressing work remains before any broader reveal.
  • Codename Invictus is being redesigned after a private Insiders session, with testers praising PvP, parkour, vertical maps, teamplay, and distinct character skills and asking for more core Assassin’s Creed pillars; Ubisoft plans more iterations and further testing to reflect that feedback.
  • The company confirmed it currently has no other Assassin’s Creed remakes actively in development, saying Black Flag Resynced consumed substantial resources and that teams are now focused on new mainline projects even though revisiting older games remains a possibility.
  • Assassin’s Creed Valhalla has passed 40 million players and will get a long-requested New Game+ on November 5, 2026, with progression scaling, new runes and achievements, a stash system, and Mithril for upgrading Divine Gear.
  • Production on the Netflix live-action Assassin’s Creed series is nearing completion in Rome, franchise head Jean Guesdon has visited the set, composer Hannah Peel is scoring the show, and Ubisoft is planning reveals, events, and rewards for the series’ 20th anniversary in 2027.
