Assassin's Creed: Victory now bears the burden of too much pressure as predecessor Rogue became a huge hit in masses. Fans may have enough of the game's customary assassin in hood trained to overcome hurdles without sweltering.
Ubisoft has been in the works of redeeming its name after the glitch-y release of Assassin's Creed: Unity following unrelenting success of its six other games, spin-offs, movie adaptations and a slew of comics. Avid fans have turned to social media and other news sites to express what they want to see in Victory that would surely make Assassin's Creed (AC) a true hit once again.
Female protagonist has not taken the center stage in the history of Assassin's Creed. AC Liberation had the 18th century African-French assassin Aveline de Grandpré who never had the opportunity to lead the game's pack despite her multiple abilities.
Last year, Ubisoft was outright to say they do not want a female hero in Arno's place. Game geeks believe this huge twist will definitely challenge Ubisoft to regain its glory following their triple-A titles.
For some, multiplayer component does not make sense for a stealth game. According to fans, Ubisoft must learn from Tenchu Z's failed online mode. Assassin's Creed games are best experienced when played solo.
A key game mode in the companion app to handle mini assassin army did not sell for some reasons. It is said to force chests to unlock, and demote key content to an optional app. Unity's Dead Kings DLC, in the same way, does not seem to give a point as it has nothing to write about.
The new swing mechanic shall take the spot light in the next installment by making the best use out of it. Fans want a Spider-Man like swing tactic tinted with AC effect.
Assassination missions allow multiple entry portals and to search an area for NPCs with extra information and world events. For Victory, it will enable players to stand up and see the world on top of many buildings. By activating a steam vent, players can move a group of guards from somewhere.
Protagonists Connor, Arno, Desmond and Edward Kenway have been remarkable that make AC gameplay experience more enjoyable. Fans, however, want to see another interesting personality for the next installment.
A pre-order page has now been set up for the game indicating the December 2015 release. Assassin's Creed: Victory is expected to hit E3 2015 first come June for a demo and official announcement of exact release date to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
