Assassin's Creed Comet: 5 Most Believable Rumours We Want To Be True

2. The Fall Of Acadia

A further link between previous Assassin's Creed games could be introduced through this setting. The setting of Assassin's Creed 3: Liberation was New Orleans which is the Cajun capital of the world. But it wasn't always so. The term Cajun derives from Acadian €“ Acadia was a region of New France, and as you have probably guessed is right smack bang in the middle of the region suggested as a location for Comet. It would not be difficult to imagine that the Frontier from Assassin's Creed 3 could be re-imaged in Acadia with the ability to travel off to other areas much like darting off to Principe in Black Flag. The problem is that Ubisoft would want to avoid a negative fan reaction to what could potentially be considered a re-skin of AC3 €“ especially as it was one of the most poorly received instalments in the franchise. So given the rumours that have appeared, could the persecution of the Acadians be an ongoing theme for the game, or would it simply appear in an epilogue much as there was after the final Desmond sequence in AC3? Originally it seemed that the Assassin's Creed series was aiming to cover periods and settings in history that had not been heavily featured before €“ and covering the fate of the Acadians would certainly fit that bill.
