“I was in Germany last month and spent some time in Berlin. And all I could think is how great a game set in Cold War Berlin would be,” they said in a lengthy post. “As I begin to discuss my idea of what the game could be, try to imagine a game similar to the older AC games, with some elements ofSplinter CellandWatch Dogs Legion.”
“That sounds awesome,” said a joyous YoBoBaLow. “I would LOVE this. I’m completely obsessed with the Cold War.” agreed YourSkatingHobbit. “This is the best idea I’ve heard in a long time. It wouldn’t just have to be within Berlin, either,” suggested a Reddit user. “Could also feature a few other cities of importance in the Cold War, like Warsaw, Moscow, Kyiv, and London. Really unique and interesting, yet dismal and atmospheric architecture.”
The concept of an Assassin’s Creed game set during the Cold War would certainly make for an intriguing prospect. Furthermore, as users in the thread mentioned, we also played a little bit of spy espionage during theWWI section ofAssassin’s Creed Syndicate. Plus, we know thatUbisoftloves reusing assets, so some inspiration could also be taken from the likes of Splinter Cell andWatch Dogs.
