No new Assassin's Creed game this year, Ubisoft confirms

A Message from the Assassin’s Creed Team
It’s an exciting time for Assassin’s Creed.
We’re only a few months removed from the debut of Jacob and Evie Frye, the stars of Assassin’s Creed Syndicate. We’re proud of the talented team in Quebec City, and all of our studios around that world that took part in bringing the Victorian London adventures of our twin Assassins to life. We truly hope you enjoy playing Assassin’s Creed Syndicate as much as our studios enjoyed making it.
Also, we recently unveiled the first images of Academy Award nominee Michael Fassbender in action as our lead Assassin in the upcoming Assassin’s Creed movie that hits theaters on December 21, 2016. Having already visited the set, we can’t begin to describe how surreal and exciting it is to walk the real-world halls of Abstergo, or see the intricate replicas of Assassin weaponry. We have an outstanding cast and crew that want to honor the rich lore of Assassin’s Creed and bring a fresh perspective to the ongoing battle between Assassins and Templars that’s fit for the big screen.
This year, we also are stepping back and re-examining the Assassin’s Creed franchise. As a result, we’ve decided that there will not be a new Assassin’s Creed game in 2016. Since the release of Assassin’s Creed Unity, we’ve learned a lot based on your feedback. We’ve also updated our development processes and recommitted to making Assassin’s Creed a premier open-world franchise. We’re taking this year to evolve the game mechanics and to make sure we’re delivering on the promise of Assassin’s Creed offering unique and memorable gameplay experiences that make history everyone’s playground.
We’ll have more to share on all of the above soon. In the meantime, we want to say thank you to our millions of fans around the world for your continued support.

育碧15-16财年Q3财报正式公布《看门狗2》 2017年4月之前上市及《刺客信条》今年内不会公布新作
今天在第三季度公司财政报告上,育碧今天正式宣布《看门狗》的续作《看门狗2》将于2017年4月之前发售。
展望2017财年公司发售游戏,育碧说:“我们将有一个非常高品质的游戏阵容,包括《荣耀战魂》,《南方公园:完整破碎》,《幽灵行动:荒野》和下一部《看门狗》。此外还有一个全新的3A级游戏品牌IP,拥有强烈的数字生活服务。”至于这个新作是什么游戏,育碧没有公开。
另外育碧还正式确认2016年不会有一个新的3A级《刺客信条》游戏发售,和之前爆出的传闻是一样的。《刺客信条》系列最近一部游戏是《刺客信条:枭雄》,2015年十月发售,该作媒体评分还不错,GameSpot打了9分。
虽然经历了缩水门,但《看门狗》销量已经超过了900万套,《看门狗2》的开发是势在必行的。之前开发团队曾表示《看门狗2》“必须要有创造性冒险”,不吃老本。2015年7月时,育碧CEO曾表示他们已经从《看门狗》中吸取了教训。他说:“当我们展示一个游戏时,我们会要求团队确保它能玩,而且还要保证玩家看到的就是实际发售时的画面。这是我们从《看门狗》中获得的教训。假如目标机器带不动它,那么就会有危险”,暗示《看门狗2》画面或许不再缩水,而且游戏配置不会太高。
