Assassins Creed will continue after the end of Desmonds tale

Who else saw this coming? Straight from the get go, Ubisoft planned for the story of Desmond Miles to end in the year 2012, but it doesn't mean its the end of Assassin's Creed as a series.


In case you didn't know, The story of Desmond Miles takes place in the near future of 2012 and spans across only a couple of months with it revolving around the whole "end of the world in december 2012" Theory. Creative Director Alexandre Amacio had this to say.

"In Assassin's Creed we set up a timeline with this whole end of the world plot of December 2012. That's fast approaching, and the story we have to tell, we obviously need to do it before we arrive at that point."

Since Revelations will be out soon and only mark the end of Ezio's and Altair's story, a new Assassin's Creed (most likely III) will be released in next year, marking the end of Desmond's story, but Assassin's Creed won't.


"Assassin's Creed is all about cycles, We have the Ezio cycle and the Altair cycle, and both of those are set to conclude in Revelations, and we have the Desmond cycle, which is set to end on December 2012. But there's many cycles within the brand – that's the whole point. History is our playground."

Amancio also wanted to state that future Assassin titles won't follow a yearly release like they are now. With the end of the main story, they will have more development time for later releases.

"Our development approach is changing so our cycles aren't structured the same way – so it gives us a little bit more development time."

Assassins Creed Revelations, the Three Heroes

The Assassins creed series has managed to span across three generations within their story. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. They created a whole universe of these killing peace keepers spans through centuries fighting a silent war from an actual knightly order that dated back to the crusades.

But the series isn't about them, it's about the journey of our three protagonists Altair Ibn Al-Ahad, Ezio Auditore da Firenze, and Desmond Miles. These assassins are all connected through bloodline and the mysterious apple, the piece of Eden. And the secrets of these three will be revealed in Ubisoft's next installment of Assassin's Creed Revelations.


Some new footage has been given to us showing a brief part of each Assassin's story in the game.

After the events of Brotherhood, Desmond is now in a coma and trapped within the animus. His only way to break free is to separate the memories between his and his two ancestors and put the pieces back together to fix his shattered mind.




Ezio has lived his whole life killing Templars for the good of mankind, but now he's at a turning point in his life whether this is the life he truly wants. So he travels to Masayaf to learn the secrets behind the Assassin order and learn of their origins so that he will gain some insight of his own person. That won't be easy considering Templars have just taken the fortress under control.




Very little is known about Altair's history. We've seen him turn from a cocky braggart to a well disciplined master Assassin in the first game. Now we shall learn the truth behind him as we visit his past, present and future as Ezio unlocks the secrets within.




One thing I can answer for you guys is that is still Altairs voice actor from the first game, he just changed it to a normal Syrian accent to help make it more realistic. It needs some getting used to.

All our questions (or at least most of them) will be answered in Revelations the coming November. Can't wait!
