Leak reveals Ubisoft's two new Assassin's Creed titles amid Hexe's slip to 2028

Published 7 Nov 2026 · Games Atlas Editorial · Leak & Unauthorised Disclosure · Companies: Netflix, Ubisoft

Games Atlas summary: Leaker xj0nathan says Ubisoft is developing two unannounced Assassin's Creed titles. Codename Mars is a Rome-set game, codename Pocket a Jerusalem-set mobile title. Insider Gaming says Hexe, the next mainline entry, has slipped internally to 2028. Ubisoft has not confirmed Mars, Pocket or the delay.

Mainline cadence slows as ancillary bets multiply

• Hexe, the next mainline Assassin's Creed, has slipped internally by a year to 2028.
• Ubisoft says new Hexe details arrive in 2027, with no release date set yet.
• Pocket is styled on Valhalla's Mastery Challenges, a shorter mobile format.
• Invictus, a multiplayer spin-off, is already confirmed in parallel development.

Transmedia tie-in extends the Rome setting beyond games

• Mars is a Rome-set project the leaker ties to Netflix's upcoming Assassin's Creed series.
• That series is also set in ancient Rome, under Emperor Nero's reign.
• Insider Gaming expects no further word on Mars until 2029 or 2030.
• Turbulence since Marc-Alexis Côté's exit limits independent confirmation of both codenames.

What this means

• For Publishers & Developers: Pull open-world stealth-action launches forward into the holiday window the franchise just vacated.
• For Investors & VC: Shift franchise-driven revenue recovery assumptions for the publisher out by one fiscal year.
• For Service Vendors: Pitch mobile co-dev and stylized art capacity to the franchise's parallel spin-off teams.
