Netflix and Ubisoft have announced publicly that there is going to be a live-action TV series based on Assassin’s Creed. It has been announced on July 17, 2025. It is going to bring the most popular gaming world to TV, where there would be historical events, sci-fi, as well as spy thriller intrigue.

Key Project Information

According to Ubisoft and Netflix's official statement, the new series will be part of a larger partnership between the companies. It is described as "an epic genre-bending show" that will remain true to the signature Assassin’s Creed style.

It’s not the first attempt to bring Assassin’s Creed into live-action. There already existed a 2016 film headed by Michael Fassbender that released to mixed reviews. This time around, Ubisoft is going to have greater creative control so that the translation is true to the spirit of its parent gameplay.

Ubisoft Statement

Its executive producer for the Assassin’s Creed games, Marc-Alexis Côté, said: "Both newcomers and fans can have an experience that they can enjoy." It also noted that the series would have "new time periods and locations" that are not featured in games.

What Fans Can Expect:

• First, the series will introduce new characters. It likely won’t be a direct adaptation of a specific game but will present original protagonists engaged in the familiar Assassin-Templar conflict.
• Second, the split between multiple timelines will be preserved: viewers will see both historical events and modern-day storylines, which are an integral part of the franchise universe.
• And finally, Netflix and Ubisoft promise to bring cinematic scale — as bold as other big adaptations like The Witcher, with high-grade production, expansive scenes, and attention to detail.

There is no release date yet. But filming is set to begin sometime in 2025 or 2026. Subscribers should follow the Ubisoft Forward and Netflix Tudum events, where first trailers and casting news might arrive.
