Footage of Supposedly Cancelled Assassin's Creed Game Set in China Revealed

The footage showcases a female assassin trying to reach a mysterious artifact inside a sacred palace. The area is overrun by the historical figure Xiang Yu and his troops. The videos also show a boss fight against a Chinese warlord.

Besides that, footage also reveals features that would have been part of the game, such as stealth kills and "leap of faith." Another clip shows a character wielding an umbrella-like spinning weapon.

Ubisoft is already developing a Chinese Assassin's Creed, notably the mobile game Assassin's Creed Jade. However, the cancelled project appears to be a full installment geared for consoles and PC.

Assassin's Creed Destiny was set to be led by TiMi Studio Group - a subsidiary of Tencent that's working on Assassin's Creed Jade. The game would have been set during the Qin Dynasty, which is roughly 206 BCE.

It's unknown why Destiny was cancelled, but it might be due to Tencent's decision to pivot away from Western franchises in 2024. As of this writing, Ubisoft has not commented on the leaked footage.
