Ubisoft Teases Assassin's Creed Hexe With Coded Message, Promises 2027 Update

Q: With no new remake in active development, which older Assassin’s Creed game is Ubisoft most likely still considering bringing back?

The older Assassin’s Creed game Ubisoft appears most likely to be considering for a comeback is the original 2007 **Assassin’s Creed**. Ubisoft has said no new remake is currently in active development, so there is no official confirmation of any specific title. But the strongest signals in the provided material point to the series’ first game, starring Altaïr. The additional reporting notes recent activity around the original game’s Steam page and branding, including updated logos and “resync” language that fans and commentators have interpreted as a possible tease. That speculation is reinforced by timing and franchise strategy. Ubisoft is already pointing toward major **20th-anniversary celebrations in 2027**, a natural moment to revisit the title that launched the series. Bringing back the first Assassin’s Creed would also fit Ubisoft’s stated interest in “exploring opportunities to revisit older entries,” even if nothing is formally underway now. There is some fan interest around other legacy games, especially **Black Flag**, which has long been rumored as remake material. But based on the information here, the original Assassin’s Creed looks like the more likely candidate Ubisoft is still weighing behind the scenes. So while no remake is officially in production, the best-supported answer is **Assassin’s Creed 1**.

Ubisoft posted an encoded message tied to Assassin's Creed Codename Hexe, offering the first fresh clue on the project after years of sparse official detail.
The blog said Hexe is making "steady progress" as a darker Assassin's Creed entry, but added that the next major update will not come until 2027.
That leaves Hexe largely mysterious beyond its spooky teaser, though it is widely expected to follow 2025's Assassin's Creed Shadows as the next mainline release.
The tease arrives as Ubisoft says it is prioritizing new Assassin's Creed titles over further remakes, while Hexe has already faced internal reworks and leadership changes.
