Oooh, leaks! And in an unexplored time period, how neat! Maybe we get to see/play as Amunet? I guess, probably not, if the main character is the man from the PoP Zero screens and AC concept art...
it is a mainline game. Besides those nintendo DS games, all games are canon
Actually even the DS games are canon, and the
Chronicles series of games aren't mainline.
and PLEASE stop saying ubisoft will never do a China or Japan game, ACC China is a PREQUEL to the Shao Jun story
No, it really isn't. It's obviously the end to her story. It was probably made to patch the hole that
Embers left. They retconned the box that Ezio gave her to hell and back.
That's not a reboot. It's just the first time we will see a time period BEFORE AC1, BEFORE the Assassins and the Templars. Bellec in AC5, Shaun in AC6 and many files in the two episodes AC4 (Black Flag & Rogue) teased us about that.
Well the Assassin's and Templars still existed, just not under those names. Also we've seen stuff before the formalization of the Assassins, in one of the semi-canon comics and a bunch from
Initiates/
Project Legacy
All of the stories are still canon. And the writer of Black Flag and Rogue said he will make an episode with the end story of Connor/Shay and Arno.

Before Assassin and Templar , two factions: Faction of Cain, Faction of Abel (it's the split between the two son of Adam and Eve that create the two lineage faction).
That is mostly false.
There is a statue of an Assassin girl under Monterrigionni in AC2 that is Egyptian from that Ancient time.
That "Assassin Girl" is Amunet. She killed Cleopatra with an Asp.
High chance it will be.
AC1: engine change, many bugs
AC3: engine changement, many bugs
AC5: engine changement , many bugs
AC2 trilogy ; AC4 duology and AC6 are very good without bugs.
So...AC7 =/ I was expecting them to use more the Unity engine with Syndicate and others game. I'm afraid if they didn't learn the lesson that the PS4 and the ONE can't endure the power of AC Unity =/
Unity isn't ACV,
Syndicate isn't ACVI. This is not going to be
ACVII.
I think Ubisoft will release an HD AC1 this christmas 2016 to introduce the universe to those who will see the movie.
By the way, the movie is canon. The movie is the "real" AC7. Ezio will be in it (yes!)
Ezio will not be in the movie.
This is just fu***** nonsense, the only games that was made in nine month (brotherhood) and one year (rogue) are liked here but when a team worked FOUR YEARS you don't see that. =/
It's just psychology. I can assure that if AC Syndicate was released in christmas 2016 but as the SAME GAME that we had in 2015 (no more, no less) , everybody will say "it's the GOTY 2015, AC is Back" just because Ubi create the "patience" between two episodes;
Yes, it's called franchise fatigue, of course it's psychology, hence the people not liking it. People can't keep up or are bored with the series because it comes out every year.
There is no "reboot" in AC , historical or present timeline.
BUT they introduce a new assassin (a russian girl) in the present timeline and it seems that she will be the protagonist. Her name is Galina.
She appeared in Rogue (in a file) and apparently she really make her first appereance in a scene at the end of AC6 Syndicate (but i'm at 30% of the game so ... =P )
Galina did not originate in
Rogue, she's from
Initiates and nothing so far indicates that she's the new protagonist. (She does indeed appear in
Syndicate -- which is not AC6 -- as well as the new comic series.)
In fact if you want to learn Galina's story, she killed her mother after she had bleeding effect (mother, not her).
http://assassinscreed.wikia.com/wiki/Galina_Voronina
Galina
does have the Bleeding Effect to an extent. That's why she's so skilled in combat. Here mother, didn't really suffer from the bleeding effect so much as she got mind screwed by Juno.
he said recently that he can't leave Connor Shay and Arno like that.

Always love the new year AC leak from Kotaku, good stuff as always!
Franchise in desperate need of a reboot, this sounds like a good way to do it. Wonder if there will be some sort of tie in for the movie this year. Has to be, right?
This is not a reboot. That is not what reboot means. Also, the movie takes place in Late Middle ages/Renascence Spain, not very related to ancient Egypt.
What does that entail, though? A new game? A novel? A series of Twitter trivia?
Funnily enough, we do know something about Ratonhnhaké:ton future after the events of the game. He eventually married a blonde woman and had multiple children. The woman later left him and took the children with her. He then died alone.
Ratonhnhaké:ton had a hard life, man.
EDIT: I just realized almost all the posts I quoted are from the same person. Whoops.
