10 Video Game Franchises Making Huge Comebacks In 2023
7. Assassin’s Creed Mirage
Unlike some other entries on this list, the Assassin’s Creed series hasn’t really been lost to time. The franchise keeps releasing new titles on a regular basis and still has a dedicated fanbase that holds it in high regard.
However, one can’t deny that since the release of Assassin’s Creed IV, the series’ popularity has been somewhat declining. The new combat system, among other features introduced in the recent titles, has caused the general audience to lose interest in the world of assassins, but Ubisoft's newest project, Assassin’s Creed Mirage, might be just the thing to lure them back in.
According to interviews with Ubisoft developers regarding the upcoming release, Mirage is a return to the classic format of Assassin’s Creed. It's focused on stealth and taking down the bad guys with swift and clever executions as opposed to slowly chopping away at their massive health bars.
Whether Ubisoft delivers on this promise or not remains to be seen, but their project has already caused quite the fuzz within the fanbase of the series.
