Assassin’s Creed Codename RED is inspired by Splinter Cell and Hitman, according to a rumor

Ubisoft is being very careful about the information it shares about Assassin’s Creed Codename REDthe provisional name by which we know this new installment of the popular stealth saga that allows players to travel to feudal japan. However, in recent weeks some relevant information about the project has leaked, such as that the French company aims to launch it in 2024 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC or that it will have two playable characters. In an update on these details, Tom Henderson, a well-known insiderhas revealed that the game will arrive in the autumn of next year and that we will be able to control a samurai and a shinobi.

Although Henderson hasn’t elaborated on the playable differences between each character, he did reveal that the samurai is a womanwhile the shinobi is an African refugee who has adopted the Creed, a fact that is very relevant if we take into account that it has previously been reported that the title will be focused on stealth and infiltration. On the other hand, the insider has highlighted that Ubisoft is basing itself on hit man and Splinter Cell to implement some mechanics, such as the possibility of hide in tall grass, hide bodies so as not to alert guards, and turn off surrounding lights to hide in the shadows. We want to remember, yes, that all this information comes from unofficial sources, so it might not be entirely accurate, although Henderson has a good track record.
