I think it would be really cool to explore the history of the American West in the AC world. There are so many different outlaws and cowboys during the time period who would make both awesome enemies and surprising historical figures as templars and assassins.”AdvertIt’s an idea that’s split opinion. User viniremesso was dubious,writing, “What about the Wild West is so inviting to AC? Seriously, the main weapon in the era wasn’t blades, but guns (it would turn into a third person cover shooter). For parkour, [it] would be a worse setting thanValhalla.[…] Stealth? There aren’t silencers, so an Assassin going full Django wouldn’t make sense.” The stealth and parkour points are definitely worth making.“I love the concept, I just don’t think it could work. We already have the perfect cowboy game inRDR2and I just don’t see any Assassin’s Creed elements fitting in that setting. Not enough density with cities,”addedLinky38. I’m in agreement. While on paper, a Wild West Assassin’s Creed sounds like a recipe for cool, I can’t quite see it working in practice. As a starting block though, it would be interesting to see the franchise venture back to the States.
