What about a chapter set against the backdrop of the Old West? To visit the arid cities of Tucson, Phoenix and El Paso... to run about the desert of Arizona, New Mexico and Texas... it would also be a way to take back the reins of the horse, disappeared, by now, for a few chapters.

Red Dead Assassin
yeah
true
Red Dead Assassin
yeah
true
Wow! Amazing
Damn, ;) ! So very interesting parallels between AC and Old West!
Great idea !
I hope that you will be supported by AC Producers!
That's an awesome piece of art. Personally, I loved the American/Caribbean settings in the series and as a big fan of Red Dead Redemption too,I'd be quite excited to see it. This could be realised so damn well by Ubi, of all people.
It's Call of Juarez Gunslinger
It would be very cool! Great Idea!
That and Japan are the one's I have been waiting for.
Im with you on the Japan or even China. We could follow the story of Shao Jun child or someone who trained under her. I would love to see some martial arts skills thrown into the game if theytake place in these times.
A Shogun type setting would be great
Fully agree, those two settings would be amazing.
A game in japan. Edo age was a good time for Assassins I think. that would be great

If theirs going to be a Japan game of AC they should do it as the character becoming a samurai then becomes the last samurai to exist, and to keep the samurais alive along with to fight again against the templars by joining the brotherhood after they found him/her. I think it should be a female lead. Don't know why, I think it would be cool.
That's The way! I get off on it :D
I want it :-}
I'm pullin' for ya :-))
Yeah that would be awsome to play in the wild west
No me gusta mucho la idea del desierto pero habria que probarlo para ver que nos ofrece
I like it, but would rather have a new RDR than an AC set in the Old West.
If the time line keeps going forward this should be the next game in the series. AC's take on the pirates was fantastic and this time period is just screaming to be adapted by the series. Yes, westerns have been done to death in other media but the game world only has a few products that take place during this time. Red Dead being of course the most well known but nothing else really comes close to the quality of that game. Ubisoft can make this happen.
This is Call of Juarez: Gunslinger screenshot. Thus Ubisoft owns the IP, then its no brainer. Smart move Guildmasters;)
like it
That would be bloody amazing
I missed the horses, the struggle when they wouldn't fit through the doorway
I'm not that sure on this to be honest, the main thing with a Western theme is that guns will be the main priority. Now I'm not saying that it can't work but a lot of the elements are going to have to be thought out carefully. Yes the blade guantlet would still work but will gamers want a quick draw option? Will gamers want to be able to blow stuff up with dynamite? How do you make it so that its not just a revamp of Red Dead Redemption? Personally I wonder if we'd be better viewing some of the predecessors from the games that were mentioned in AC2, ie Leonus, Amunet, Qulan Gal, Wei Yu, Iltani and Darius. I do worry that the more dependent we become on the guns, the game will lose a lot of what has made it so special for me as a gamer. Other time periods that could be explored include for example the English Civil War, The War of the Roses (The Cousin's War), The Hundred Years War or perhaps something in Elizabethan times etc. There's a lot of history to explore and whilst the examples I've mentioned are English other countries must have such fascinating time periods to hang around in as well.
Cool!I like this idea :D
Yes I agree!!! Great idea!
this would be crazy gun-play mix in with the hand to hand combat while ur a deadly assassin do it ubisoft do it
I defiantly would love this
Well it would be cool! We could cooperate with Lincon in the American civil war ;-)
Hey I actually thought of this same thing today because I just finished reading the AC 3 book by Oliver Bowden. I was thinking what if Connor went back to look for Aveline and they had children, and so on and one of there descendants was need during Lincolns time.
wow! amazing!!
FANTASTIC!
Just DO IT!!!
seria una pasada
podria haber una fiebre por el oro en busca de minas y eso
Red Dead Redemption \o/
awesome idea!
a game located in texas revolution and the war with mexico would be amazing
like red dead redemption?
Amazing
I think, it would be perfect, like this setting
I would buy it no matter the cost
Done right this could be the best AC yet!
OR Feudal Japan. Please.
Yessss
I r8 8/8 love it m8
An AC game without melee weapons? An AC game without any cities to free run in? What kind of AC game is that?....
This is a Creed that have been wanting since stepping foot into Colonial America. I would love to be able to fight as an "outlaw" seeking justice in a cruel world.
I Think that it coould be fun to play AC in a old west environment. But as cool as it would be to be riding on a horse while shootinf templas and making an assassination by jumping of a horse. I think it would also take away a lot of the things we love about assassins creed. One of the things i think this environment would make kind of obsolete is the free running. In the old west there arent a lot of big cities, nor a lot of high buildings or busy streets. So there is not really a reason to use the free run mechanic.
Noiiice!!
i suggested this to, sounds like a good idea
Day one buy from me ;)
this is still originaly what i came up with, so i hope it works either way
Amazing
Looks like Call of Juarez Gunslinger ;) But yes, wild west would be fun. US Civil War propably.
A Cowboy Assassin, that would be cool story for sure!
I'd rather have one set against the Russian revolution.
dislike
I would be a cool game to play but what would the revolution style aspect be?
cool!
yeah souns good
Brilliant idea !! It could get linked to the civil war or the america-mexican war...or even the development of the railroads...uniting the USA by rail sounds just like a Templar idea !!
This is an interesting idea!
Honestly, I think it could work.
could be a good story, but not a lot of free running
this would be awesome but why going to the america when you have so many posiable themes in Europe.
Cool :)
YES!! I would totally love to see this happen!
it's a new horizon and a great idea.
good job !!
I like the idea but the similarities to Red Dead means the producers would have a very difficult time making it different to what we've seen before
Funny idear. ^^
This would be so incredibly amazing!
wow! amazing!! It would be very cool and i realy would like it
Amazing!
it will be amazing
Awesome Idea!!!
That's awesome!
That would be awesome someone please get on this
lik3
I'd want this
It would have to become more like a third person shooter, which is not a bad thing.
The pic comes from another Ubi game, which named "Call of Juarez Gunslinger". It's such a nice game too.
yes let's go !
That looks great, I like the nature around the town :P
i think it is Read dead redemption...
i think it is Read dead redemption...
or another western game that i don't remember the name of xD
Love the idea, lots of potential
A small feeling of RDR! Looks great!
Cool.
An Awesome idea!
Very cool idea, amazing ! Need a good storyline
Very cool idea, amazing ! Need a good storyline
I love the shading in this picture!
Thats briliant idea...
Where's that pic from? Call of Juarez? Red Dead Redemption?
That could actually be a really good idea.
Great idea, would definitely buy that !
cool
nice!!
I believe it would be nice to continue Connor's story, like they did with Ezio's trilogy. Imagine an older, wiser Connor, maybe teaching young Eseosa, through Mexico and the border. I believe he would be perfect for a "Wild West" story.
Please don't!! Spread out towns, nothing in between. Weapons would be cool and keep with the progretion, alot of time to kill intravelling! And no ship to sail in between!!
if you understand french, read this article about AC: FAR WEST : https://council.assassinscreed.com/#!/article/assassins-creed-fracture-entre-secession-et-far-12545
or maybe set in Spanish California/Mexico, but a decent idea.
Not to sure what lore or background they would draw on for this, alot AC history has been based off events or moments in time adapted for story.
Wow,just wow
I think that's amazing idea I think that could really work.
Like red dead redemption but cooler
Would be nice to watch an assassin western style.
i think the wild west whould give AC a huge following even more as most people played RDR and loved it i think it whould sell huge fingers crossed they do this and with verious dlc and limited edditions to buy
they should make a middle eastern one
Rather not thanks. With all the eras of time and all the places to go why make a western? We could go to ancient china, eygipt, babylon, and you wanna play cowboys and indians._. pass.
There is a new Sherif in town and usualy you can't even see him :). I like the idea however there were no melee weapons in wild west, sadly.
This looks Awesome!!!
Like in my "Ancient Egypt" post - modern time = more guns = more noice = no stealth :( not assassins way
Do you not think it would be to much like red dead redemption
I like the idea, but with Red Dead out and Red Dead 2 being touted, I think there's too much scope "same old, same old"
In fact if it was not perfect
Read my latest articles to see where the series is going! Join AC rewards: https://assassinscreed.ubi.com/en-US/rewards/login.aspx?_cts_=u5efT40L
I think that this would make for an interesting game.
Nice! You should also see this: http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2011/06/assassin_by_tomx.jpg

Oh yas +2!
Let's start a petition!
This is my favourite era! Its a good idea, if you make a game with this age.
Cool!!!
A matter of when not if me says :)
how can you be an "assassin" in the WILD west? all the weapons were loud and you can't "assassinate" someone without waking up the whole town! i don't think that would go with the stealthy ways of assassin creed.
Yes please!
YESSS
interesting
haha..... so cool..... cowboy style!!
looks great
AWESOME...
that is the same as aasaains creed revolution just a different location but still interesting
This would be amazing. To date, Red Dead is the most successful western themed game. Given the Ubisoft AC touch, this IP would far surpass its success.
I would like to see this!
Really like this idea!
Really like this idea!
i like this too
Good comments and great idea setting, as long as does'nt go anywhere close to going down AC3 Connor road
What exactly do you mean by not going down the AC3 road?
This would be really great
This would be really great
Ooooh! Just came back to this because I thought of something. How about, "Assassins Creed: Fools Gold"
Interesting thought.
Thats a great idea, im actually surprised ubi havent done it yet, some amazing caracters like Billy the kid could be innit and all

That one most be awesome, you should get to work on that, i would actually love it, can't wait to see the outfits for that one

This setting has some great possibilities.

This setting has some great possibilities,but it has some problems too. Assasins creed is close combat action so the problem is the use of guns and rifles. But i love the idea of a great open world with indian like sneaking skills to surprise your enemy. Bandit camps , villages with corrupt gouverment, indian tribes, gold mines en an company that builds a railroad and using force to gain the ground from people.

wild west creed be interesting Experience
A "fish out of water" story would be amazing - character raised in the remote Wild West countryside by a retired Assassin. Having to travel to a modernizing city and adjust to a new way of life. Searching for - revenge? retribution? redemption?
This is an awesome idea (really liked red dead too) Dig the idea of Egypt, China, Japan (lots of potential for unique weapons and moves). Not sure there is a time frame or Genre that I wouldn't like AC in :-) what do people think about early Roman empire or 1930's prohibition mobster style AC? AC boardwalk empire :-)
Не-е... Ну сколько ещё можно про Запад и Северную Америку?! Коннор, Эдвард, Адевале, Эвелина... Достаточно. Тогда уж лучше про колонизацию Австралии, или эскимосов Заполярья или уж если на то пошло - про Антарктиду! Я уж не говорю о Египте, Японии, времена инквизиции, да много чего интересного на планете было! Да 20-й век уже смело можно делать: Assassin`s creed: Fall of the Third Reich. Я бы вот хотела целую игру о Предтечах! А ещё - верните современность! Сколько можно тупо лежать в аппарате?! Хочется уже встать и поразмяться, поколотить плохих чуваков!)) Про ковбоев пусть лучше отдельная игра будет. Не надо скрещивать ковбоя с ассасином.
amazing
It'd be cool!
It'd be cool!
I think it would be good but who would be your enemy - templar bandits?
I think it would be a good idea,but who would be the enemy - tempar bandits?
Amazing and What about a WW2 setting, maybe that would be cool? (of course, AC is always cool)
I agree that an AC game taking place in WW2 would be really cool! But then again you kind of have to consider if it would actually work. AC games focuses alot around close combat with swords, knives etc and that's kind of the problem with AC games set in a more modern age. In syndicate during the ww1 missions they fixed it fith the guards using batongs and that actually kind of worked since weapons still had not been modernised so much during that time period so a little close combat could actually still be realistic. In AC3 during the desmond missions the gaurds had battongs too and that still works since they weren't soldiers but just guards and most of the time weren't supposed to actually kill people. Now picture you as an assassin out on the battlefield during WW2 with a hidden blade, a small hidden weapon and maybe a pistol against a whole army of nazis firing at you with machine guns and what not. That simply wouldn't work, and to make it work they would have to make it way too historically inacurate. If they could make it work then yes please, that would be awesome! But i don't think it would. That's just my opinion
I'd absolutely LOVE this. It would match ome of their artwork. The hood could just be his thing draped over when the time comes and to make him stand out he could rock a bandana at the same time to totally cover up making much more sense. I know we're all upset about the hood thing in Syndicate but it makes sense in the end.
To be honest i don't think it would work. The majority of the wild west is a complete wasteland and in my opnion i think it would be too open to actually even try to do things stealthy and there would be way to few buildings to freerun and use as vantage points
woah we need this!! that would be so amazing! thopefully they will do it one day + the japan version!
Now that would be an interesting assassin game
That would be awesome. Horse chases, Native Americans, bandits, corrupt bussinessmen trying to capitalize on the expanding west
This would really be an awesome chapter!
That would be awesome :3 but guns... Huh
Awesome bro!!!!!
Awesome bro!!!!!
What is this picture from?
Wow, love this ideal, templars stealing gold out of the mines in california's gold rush era. And let's remember the alamo! Evan a shoot out at the ok corral would be nice. I love thee ideal of ac in the far west
Imagine how good that would look in the new engine! :D
what about an AC in algeria set in 1900 were french was conquering algeria
Afraid too many comparisons with RDR will pop up (and the new one will be available before a possible AC:WW - Wild West - will hit the store). I think they missed out on an opportunity with Connor for that era. Let's be more original Ubi... Challenge us with a (game play) period that hasn't been touched before. I've seen some good suggestions on these pages...
Oh. My. God. Where do we preorder :)
Oh. My. God. Where do we preorder :)
Great Idea
Great Idea
I like that idea, but it would have to sufficiently differentiate itself from games like Red Dead Redemption, which could be a challenge.
This would be cool if set in the west imagine Billy the kid as an assassin lol
Great idea! But I had some few points in mind. In the old West , wouldn't U come across remote areas where there would B nobody but U & the horse!! Cuz' as we know, engaging, being surrounded by lot's of people 2 blend in is 1 of AC series style. Would love 2 roam the old west, but I feel 2 create such game... major changes in the game style might take place. Example: there may not be many high buildings 2 climb on. But surely great idea! :)
Please no. There are more interesting places to visit then the Wild West that have been covered by other games.
sounds good to me
This has to happen.
This has to happen.
Sounds good, but there a no high buildings maybe it's cool...
i like this, it could give many options, travel to mexico, contorl bandints, save and develope towns, a plot with the natives and the precursors sites; this and african or japanese would be great
COOOOL!!!!
COOOOL!!!!
Let us kill Hitler.
Let us kill Hitler.
What would the story focus around?
Oh yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lets make some good action packed horse fights and races :)
That would be pretty amazing!
That would be pretty amazing!
the only thing I want is that the next Assassin's Creed have a good place in history than ridiculisado as Unity , which has more sense and look great so I think that Japan could be a possibility but is not possible. Ubisoft hope something good for next year and the others that follow yet.

Nice......a change in pace from blades to bullets,from hood to hat Very nice
I think that would be a great idea but in that period of time the use of guns año these type of things will not be so much compatible with the engine that you used , like we see in sindicate , if you use fire guns you need a system of covers efficiently , Sorry my inglish its not my natal lenguaje . :)

dont know if this is a good idea for assassin. there is no architecture!... boring small towns... for western you need only gun, hat and a horse---- i like old and acient architecture, swords, knifes.... maybe crossbow..... like true assassin.
Yes please.
Great idea!
Great idea!
I don't think assassins can be fit like a cowboys
Great Idea , A good direction for the Assassins creed story
Great Idea , A good direction for the Assassins creed story
that pic is form the game the call of juarez but i would love it if an assassin's creed chapter is done in the old west with guns dual and everything, but i hope also there would be a chapter about samurai assassins and ancient Egypt as there was a pic in blackflag indicating a project like that
I'm certainly not against it, it really cool artwork, but on a personal level, I'm kinda done with the whole wild west theme. I would be more interested in the Ottoman empire, Persia, Old Russia, China Greece or Egypt. Or what would be even better, New York in the Roaring twenties. The beautifull Art Deco architecture, the Jazz scene the funky cars and speakeasies I would love that.

I like it! Maybe work with Wyatt Earp or something.

Omg that would be the best assasins creed ever . A part time cowboy and a full time assasin !! Hope ubisoft will make it!
Enough with the western go with eastern!
Hope one of the next actions will take us to the Wild West. Would be cool :)

I would like to see an AC in ancient Egypt and in Russia during the time of katherine the great or during the revolution
One in old Egypt should be amazing too...
not bad
not bad
Didn't find the last adventure there very exciting. I think it is far better suited to stay in Europe or even Asia / the Far East
Shogun - now that would be good
Shogun - now that would be good
great :)
leap of faith into a horse trough
This would be amazing :P
This would be amazing :P
Great idea!! Great
Nice post !
Why not.
What about a game during the Second Mexican Empire with Maximilian the First of Mexico!
great idea! love this one. I also wrote some ideas: https://council.assassinscreed.com/#!/article/idea-upcoming-ac-26683
What about one being based on the confederate war, or the 2 world wars, then there is the cold war
Far West may be for a Far Cry ?
I'd love western as there's only one very good western video game, red dead redemption. But it be wierd as there wouldn't be much climbing and parkour involved..
This would be a fun concept.
I think the desert thing will be catered for in the egypt one! but its a great idea, I also want to see Aztec/Mayans - Ancient Syria & Ancient Greece
