Ubisoft is stepping into a new multiplayer realm with Assassin’s Creed Invictus, a title that has long been under wraps since its initial mention in 2022. Recent leaks provide an exciting look at the game, revealing that it will feature gameplay similar to Fall Guys, with 16 players competing across various rounds and game modes. The game, part of the Assassin’s Creed universe, offers something fresh and unexpected for fans of the franchise.
According to j0nathan (thanks Reddit), Assassin’s Creed Invictus will feature several unique game modes. These include team deathmatch, speed-based challenges, and survival modes. Players who qualify for later rounds can choose unique powers to form builds, adding strategic depth to the gameplay.
In terms of characters, fan favorites like Ezio and Cesare Borgia will be part of the roster. Ubisoft has opted for arcade-style mechanics, with hits lacking real impact and protective bubble shields reminiscent of Smash Bros. The camera will be distant, making characters look smaller, creating a more fast-paced, energetic experience.
The game’s maps will borrow from earlier Assassin’s Creed titles, including locations like Baghdad, Japan, and even Pompeii. Assassin’s Creed Invictus will be part of Assassin’s Creed Infinity, a broader hub connecting different games within the series.
While player reactions to the leaks have been mixed, it’s clear that Assassin’s Creed Invictus is setting out to offer something distinct from the typical single-player experience.
