However, the version for Switch will have some differences compared to the Xbox and PlayStation versions.
That’s a bit of an understatement, actually. The Assassin’s Creed franchise goes to great lengths to make its games historically accurate. Ubisoft Montreal hires historians and scholars who specialize in the time periods and locations featured in each game. These experts travel extensively, documenting everything with countless photos and measurements. They then share this detailed information with the game developers, allowing them to realistically recreate ancient cities. This dedication not only makes for incredibly engaging games, but also provides valuable resources for historical study.
While 2027 promises to be an exciting year, 2024 still has a lot to offer. We’re getting new Star Wars content with The Mandalorian & Grogu hitting theaters – the first Star Wars film in cinemas since 2019 – and the second season of Star Wars: Ahsoka might arrive on Disney+ before the end of the year.

This concern isn’t just due to the fact that Wildlight Entertainment hasn’t shared any updates in about a month, but also because many players didn’t like what they saw in the first trailer.
