'There will be no new Assassin's Creed game released in 2019, publisher Ubisoft has confirmed.
Ubisoft boss Yves Guillmot confirmed the news today at Gamescom 2018, Gamespot reported.
It comes after 2017's Origins was praised for reinventing the series after taking a unique yearly break in the formerly annual franchise.
This year's Assassin's Creed Odyssey has picked up criticism for launching just a year after Origins - even though it is the work of an entirely separate team on their own lengthy development cycle, and despite the changes it has added to complete the series' promising transition into a full-blown RPG.
"We had a game [in 2018] and we have one this year, but we are not going to have a full-fledged Assassin's next year," Guillemot said. "It's just because the team was working separately, so we have two games now, one year after the other. But next year you're not going to have a fully-fledged one."'

The last year off lead to Origins which was great so this is good to hear!
