The announcement comes as part of Netflix's growing slate of video game adaptations and leaves fans with one major question: which Assassin's Creed game will the show adapt? While Netflix and Ubisoft have not yet revealed specific plot details, early development insights and past franchise trends offer strong clues about which historical era and assassin might lead the series.

A PARTNERSHIP YEARS IN THE MAKING

The Assassin's Creed show is the product of a multi-year deal between Netflix and Ubisoft, first signed in 2020. The agreement includes plans for multiple adaptations, starting with a flagship live-action series and potentially expanding to animated or anime-style productions in the future.

Ubisoft Film & Television is producing the project, with support from Netflix's genre-focused team behind hits like The Witcher and Arcane. According to Ubisoft, the goal is to create a "massive, genre-defining adaptation" that will respect the core mythology of the franchise while appealing to a broader audience beyond just gamers.

This long-term vision increases the possibility that the show could explore multiple timelines and protagonists-mirroring the video game series' anthology-style structure.
