Si hace unos días nos llegaba la información de que este año no habría una entrega de la saga de Ubisoft, Yves Guillemot, presidente de la firma francesa nos acaba de dejar unas palabras bastante reveladoras.
"The goal is not automatically to come back on annual cycle but to come on a regular basis," he said. We saw it was time to give it lots of time so [developers] could really work on the property and all the mechanics to make sure we could take [the series] to another level.
He added: "What we are seeing today is promising. We will be able to come on a regular basis [but] we can't say every year.
Todo esto, según palabras del propio presidente, viene debido al fracaso de Unity por sus inmunerables bugs.
"[In 2016] we also are stepping back and re-examining the Assassin's Creed franchise. As a result, we've decided that there will not be a new Assassin’s Creed game in 2016," it said.
"Since the release of Assassin's Creed Unity, we’ve learned a lot based on your feedback. We've also updated our development processes and recommitted to making Assassin's Creed a premier open-world franchise. We're taking this year to evolve the game mechanics and to make sure we’re delivering on the promise of Assassin's Creed offering unique and memorable gameplay experiences that make history everyone's playground."
Con ello, parece ser que la idea es volver a los inicios de la franquicia, cuando no nos bombardeaban con una entrega cada año y centrarse más en pulir cada una de sus nuevas entregas.
