Assassin’s Creed Codename Hexe Screenshot Leaked, to Include “Bad Cop” Mentor for Anika – Rumor

A well-known Ubisoft leaker, xj0nathan, recently shared details and a screenshot from the upcoming Assassin’s Creed Codename Hexe in a new video. The original screenshot was dark and hard to see, but the leaker used AI to enhance and brighten it, revealing more of the game.

I was so excited when I saw the second screenshot! It looks like the main character will finally get to use the hidden blade, which is awesome! Plus, they’re wearing a cool, darker version of the classic Assassin’s Creed outfit and are clearly skilled at parkour, jumping around in the trees. Even though the images were taken down from xj0nathan’s accounts, thankfully some Reddit users were quick enough to save copies for everyone to see!

According to a recent leak, Ezio—who fans speculated might return in Assassin’s Creed Codename Hexe—will likely appear only through flashbacks accessed via Isu technology or collectible memory discs. The leak also details a new assassin character named Wolfgang, who is described as morally ambiguous and potentially controversial. Wolfgang will act as a mentor to the protagonist, Anika, early in the game. The leaker, xj0nathan, explains that Anika will have a dynamic with Ezio and Wolfgang similar to a “good cop” working with a “bad cop.”

I’m so excited about Anika! From what I’ve heard, her last name is probably Adler. And her outfits sound amazing – they’re saying she’ll have those classic hooded robes you see in Assassin’s Creed, but also a bunch of outfits with a witchy theme. It sounds like a really cool mix!

Earlier this week, details about the upcoming Assassin’s Creed Codename Hexe were leaked online by Rogue Tx. The leak included snippets of dialogue from the game and revealed the protagonist’s name: Anika. According to the leaker, Anika is a descendant of Claudia Auditore, and the game’s main setting will be Wurzburg, Germany.

I was so excited when I heard hints that Ezio might be in the game! Anika actually mentions a white hood that reminded her of a drawing her mother made, which was a huge clue. And apparently, he has voice lines! I read that he says things like, “She wanted you to have a life,” and a really touching line about one last leap for an old man. But the best part? He also says, “They always fear what they cannot control. They called us demons once, too. But remember, Elsa: ‘Nulla è reale, tutto è lecito.’” That line really confirms it – Ezio’s going to be a major mentor to Anika, which I think is awesome!

Developing Assassin’s Creed Codename Hexe has probably been challenging, particularly with the recent major changes at Ubisoft. However, Ubisoft says that shifts in the development team are normal for their projects.

To adapt to changing needs, our team members will sometimes move between projects, focusing their skills where they’re most valuable. This allows us to be flexible and quickly respond to evolving work demands, according to a company representative.

Recent reports suggest around 50 developers have left the project, and key leaders, including creative director Clint Hocking and game director Benoit Richer, are also no longer involved.
