This year’s Assassin’s Creed: Mirage is just one of six games developed in this IP, and in May, the publisher said it would increase the number of people working on Assassin’s Creed by 40% over the next few years. Immortals 2 wasn’t even part of that, and the plan at the time was for Ubisoft to focus on the biggest IPs and live service projects because they didn’t do well with sales over Christmas.
In Immortals: Fenyx Rising, a forgotten hero went on a journey to save the Greek heroes, and later, the DLC delved into Chinese mythology with a new protagonist, the martial artist Ku.Īccording to VGC’s sources, the storm clouds began to gather over the future of Immortals when Ubisoft decided to focus on its more prominent brands, and the French publisher turned its attention to Assassin’s Creed, canceling three unannounced games in January.
Still, Jeff Grubb, an insider journalist, reported last year that the sequel would not only have explored Greek mythology but also delved into Hawaii Polynesian myths with the new project. Ubisoft’s goal was to turn Immortals into a franchise. The French company’s studio in Quebec (we’re talking about the city, not the province within Canada!) reportedly started development on a sequel to Immortals: Fenyx Rising, but the studio’s management decided in July 2023 to cancel development because they felt there was a significant challenge in expanding the IP, even though the original game’s reception wasn’t bad either. VGC wrote about what it has heard from multiple sources about Ubisoft.
