According to many, it is a continuation of the flagship Assassin’s Creed series, subtitled Rift.
Thief of Baghdad
The game, which according to earlier speculation should take place in Baghdad, was originally planned for this fiscal year, so it should have been released no later than March of next year.

Although the sources of the mentioned magazine are similarly not specific, they agree on a setting somewhere in Asia, for which fans have been calling in vain for a long time.
