One Forgotten Assassin’s Creed Game Could Expand the Franchise’s Lore

Before the release of “Assassin’s Creed Unity” for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in 2014, Ubisoft revealed that a standalone side game would be available to players who bought Unity’s season pass. This game was called “Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: China,” developed by Climax Studios. In it, players got to play as the 16th century Chinese Assassin Shao Jun for the first time since her appearance in the 2011 animated short film “Assassin’s Creed: Embers.” In March 2015, Ubisoft announced that “Chronicles: China” would be followed by two more games in the “Chronicles” series: “Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: India,” set in the 19th century, and “Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: Russia,” set in the 20th century.
