Assassin's Creed Hexe, which is currently a code name and is set to launch after the Japan-set Assassin's Creed Red, is the subject of a new report from Insider Gaming, which claims the title is aiming for a release in 2026. You'll apparently be playing as a female protagonist called Elsa, who comes equipped with supernatural abilities.

The piece goes on to say Hexe will be more of a linear experience with only "some elements of open world exploration". Gameplay will apparently implement a new version of the "Fear System" seen in the Assassin's Creed Syndicate DLC based on Jack the Ripper.
