But what does stealth mean in Ubisoft terms these days?

A planned expansion forAssassin’s Creed Valhallais instead being spun off into its own separate standalone game, a new report claims. The unnamed and unannounced game supposedly stars chaotic frenemy Basim, and will be more a smaller stealth-focused game rather than another rambling open-world murder-o-rama. But are we talking stealth-stealth, or Assassin’s Creed stealth, or modern Ubisoft stealth?

Rift’s supposed star Basim is a Hidden One (forerunners of the Assassins) who crosses paths with Eivor several times during Valhalla. He gives her a wristblade, and they both end up tangled in that rubbish moonman jazz.

What is definitely next for Valhalla isDawn Of Ragnarök. The expansion will see Eivor all Odined-up with new ice and fire powers, fighting through the Dwarven realm of Svartalfheim. Moonman jazz, innit. That’s due to launch on the 10th of March.

Further ahead, supposedly after Rift, is Assassin’s Creed Infinity. This mysterious gameis rumoured to be a live service doodadconnecting different places and periods in some way. Ubisoft have confirmed that Infinity exists but not said anything about what it is.
