Assassin’s Creed: Invictus is set to be a multiplayer game, and recent reports point to an alleged and rather unexpected inspiration for Ubisoft.









Fall Guys it is supposedly an inspiration for the multiplayer version of the game The Assassin’s Creed series. This news was revealed by French YouTuber j0nathan (via VGT on X), who enjoys a considerable reputation among fans of the Assassin series thanks to previously verified information. The information about the enigmatic Ubisoft project known as Assassin’s Creed: Invictus was shared by him.


AC: Fall Guys

We knew officially for a long time that one of the new installments in the AC series is a multiplayer game. However, it was not clear what form it would take. Some players were betting on a return to the abandoned competitive multiplayer from older installments (absent since Black Flag), which was essentially a game of hide and seek.


However, j0nathan’s sources seem to indicate something slightly different. Team deathmatch and free-for-all modes are set to return Invictusbut not in their classical form – or at least not only in their classical form.

The game will be based on matches with various game modes and the progressive elimination of players (currently: up to 16) who could not meet the challenge. The game will even include a “speed” mode, which is a kind of race where players must reach a designated goal. No wonder the YouTuber has made associations with Fall Guys.

He also verified that there will be maps (or parts of them) and characters from previous releases serving as arenas and player avatars, including Ezio and Pompeii – the latter of which will gradually include a lava-covered board. j0nathan also suggested that between rounds, players will be able to choose different powers to combine and use in the final round.


AC multiplayer? Yes, but the old fashioned way

Information from the YouTuber has yet to be confirmed and should be approached with caution. So far, fans have quite mixed feelings about these reports, although the negative opinions seem to prevail.


Of course, many people express their displeasure with coupon clipping assassin’s creed series, but some players would be keen to experience a multiplayer NEEDLE in the battle royale genre. As long as it’s a variation on the theme of the old, single multiplayer assassin’s creed FROM Fraternityand not an imitation of another popular game.

If Invictus it’s just another variation on the theme Fall Guysthen – according to some players – Ubisoft may end up with its own Concord. Some fans even advise that the company “pull the plug” before the project sees the light of day.
