Upcoming Assassin’s Creed sequel may see return of Black Flag’s Edward Kenway

In light of the success ofAssassin’s Creed Nexus, fans are wondering who else may return to the franchise in theNexussequel. A lot of fans are putting their money (figuratively speaking) on Edward Kenway featuring in the next game and, honestly, a lot of evidence supports that theory.

In the newly released VR title, players get the chance to relive three fan-favourite assassins’ memories: Ezio, Kassandra, and Connor. Arguably, it’sAC2’s Ezio that a lot of fans returned for, but the facts remain that delivering memories from some of the most popular assassins isUbisoft’s goal.

Bearing that in mind, seeingBlack Flag’s Kenway return isn’t a stretch at all. After all, Kenway is one of the fandoms’ favourite characters, his rogueish wayshailing him as one of the greatsfrom the entire series. “Edward is a great character and I feel like he deserves at least a sequel or a short movie, like it was for Ezio,” said one dedicated fan when singing the protagonist’s praises.
