Assassin’s Creed Hexe Release Date Revealed by Insider

Ubisoft’s upcoming action-adventure title Assassin’s Creed Hexe has a targeted launch window of 2026, according to gaming insider Tom Henderson via reporting from Czech outlet Indian. The game, which was officially announced as part of the Assassin’s Creed Codename hub during Ubisoft Forward in September 2022, is positioned as the final flagship entry in the franchise’s current production phase before subsequent slate titles arrive.

Development on Assassin’s Creed Hexe is currently being led by Ubisoft Montreal, the studio behind several major entries in the multi-billion-dollar franchise. While publisher Ubisoft has released limited official footage or gameplay details since the 2022 teaser trailer, industry reporting and insider disclosures have gradually filled in the timeline for the project’s development cycle.

The 2026 release target places Assassin’s Creed Hexe approximately three years after the launch of Assassin’s Creed Mirage, which debuted in October 2023. It also follows Assassin’s Creed Shadows, the feudal Japan-set title scheduled to anchor the franchise’s release slate. According to Ubisoft’s overarching strategy for the Codename hub, Hexe is designed to offer a distinctly different tone and structural approach compared to its predecessors, drawing inspiration from historical European witch trials.

Ubisoft management has not yet confirmed an exact calendar date or specific platform line-up for Assassin’s Creed Hexe beyond the broader 2026 window outlined by industry sources. Development teams at Ubisoft Montreal continue active production on the title under the supervision of the publisher’s editorial division.
