The UbiSoft related website UbiWorkshop and the UbiWorkshop Twitter page both recently went live, setting the gears of the rumour mill in motion. The Twitter page contains a conversation between UbiWorkshop and comic book artists Cameron Stewart and Karl Kerschl. The pair hinted at a secret project they are involved in, but cannot share details on at the moment.
The conversation then directs readers to a teaser on another secret project, unrelated to theirs – a piece of art hosted on the UbiWorkshop website. This was followed up with a comment stating: “Oh, and before you ask, this has nothing to do with Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood.” The work is by Polish artist Grzegorz Domaradzki (aka Gabz).
Having looked at the art, one could make the assumption that it is related to another Assassin’s Creed project as there are many familiar elements – a soaring eagle; a and shady looking cloaked character holding a blood soaked feather; and of course, the letters ‘AC.’ While the idea of an Assassin’s Creed game based in ancient Egypt sounds pretty cool, Ubisoft has told CVG that the art is part of a “non-game related project.”
With the scant details, one can only theorise on the two “secret projects.” An Assassin’s creed graphic novel or web comic could be a pretty entertaining interlude for fans of the series as they await the next instalment, Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood.
