So, with the newly released and ambitious ACIV: Black Flag, people are wondering where the franchise will go next. In Assassin's Creed IV, your Abstergo Employee can hack into colleagues files, in one of these, an email chain discusses future areas to explore. They discuss Desmond's lineage and other areas known to have been inhabited by Assassins. They discuss these areas from Subject 17's lineage below.

 

Patrilinieal Line (Desmond's Father's Ancestors)-

Fifteenth Century- Italian Renaissance

Sixteenth Century- Ottoman Empire

Eighteenth Century- American Colonies/War for Independence

Nineteenth Century- New England and American Midwest

 

Matrilineal Line (Desmond's Mother's Ancestors)-

Twelfth Century- Holy Lands/Crusades

Thirteenth Century- Egypt and North Africa

Fourteenth Century- Ashikaga Shogunate in Japan

Eighteenth Century- French Revolution

Nineteenth Century- Napoleonic Wars; Taiwan

Twentieth Century- "Summer of Love" American Pacific Coast

 

Some of the above have been explored, War for Independence in ACIII, Italian Renaissance in ACII/Brotherhood, Crusades in ACI, etc... But others, like Egypt, Ashikaga Shogunate, and the American Midwest are some of the most asked for locations by fans, and would be amazing to explore!

 

They also discuss other Subjects being brought in, bringing to light the idea of Assassin fan favorites unrelated directly to Desmond, like Shao Jun and Nikolai Orlev. These all could send Assassin's creed further in it's new path, as is being hinted.

Heres how i personally see it I reckon the most likely would be the American Midwest because its in a similar time frame to 3 and 4 and i think they wouldn't make a big jump backwards so if they go backwards more I'd say it's Japan as thats what most fans are wanting and the idea of playing as Nikolai would be really cool but I doubt they'd do it as it is pretty far forward in history

I just know when another Assassins Creed game comes out people are going to complain, saying things like "Oh wow, stop with the series, it's the same stuff over and over". But, I want more Assassins Creed, love the stories, love the gameplay, the characters... AC is just in my top 10 best games I've played. Can't wait to play AC Black Flag when I get a PS4!
