Ubisoft Reportedly Cancels Co-Op Multiplayer Assassin's Creed Game
"A multiplayer, co-op Assassin's Creed game was reportedly cancelled by Ubisoft as part of restructuring efforts at the company. The game, codenamed Assassin's Creed League, was in development at Ubisoft's Annecy team, but was shut down recently. The Assassin's Creed title was not among the six other cancelled projects that Ubisoft confirmed last month, according to a report published in French outlet Origami on Thursday."
"Assassin's Creed League was a cooperative game that would have allowed up to four assassins to team up in possibly the same feudal Japan setting seen in last year's Assassin's Creed Shadows, according to Origami's reporting. Citing at least 12 Ubisoft employees, the report claimed that the Ubisoft Annecy team was informed about the cancellation "last week". AC League was one of the projects in the works at the studio."
"As per the report, the co-op AC title began as a potential DLC for Assassin's Creed Shadows. It was reportedly planned as the season pass conclusion for the game, offering scripted co-op missions, supporting up to four players. Assassin's Creed League would have also served as a multiplayer co-op foundation for future games in the series, the report said."
Ubisoft cancelled Assassin's Creed League, a multiplayer cooperative entry developed by Ubisoft Annecy, as part of company restructuring. The game would have supported up to four players and may have been set in feudal Japan similar to Assassin's Creed Shadows. The project began as planned DLC for Shadows and evolved into a reduced-scope standalone using portions of Shadows' open world. The title was intended to offer scripted co-op missions and to serve as a multiplayer foundation for future Assassin's Creed games. An invitational alpha playtest had been planned for May 2026 before the project was terminated by Vantage Studios.
