However, recent details have emerged from industry insider Tom Henderson. Asreported onInsider Gaming,Assassin’s Creed Redwill not only continue with an emphasis on stealth gameplay, but it will also feature destructible environments. To a certain degree, theAssassin’s Creedseries has always featured destructible objects, but nothing really on a massive scale.

Henderson claims that inAssassin’s Creed Red, players will be able to “break anything that you could expect to break in real life with the tools they have. Screen doors for example can be slashed and broken open.” He continues: “Whilst this isn’t aBattlefield-esque type of environmental destruction, it adds yet another layer toAssassin’s Creed Redthat players will enjoy.”

What’s more, Henderson also reports thatAssassin’s Creed Redwill not only have a proper reveal sometime during early 2024 but it will also be released late that year, which would certainly suit Ubisoft’s frequent Assassin’s Creed release schedule.
