The Case for a Assassin’s Creed Game Set in Colonial Australia

Not many games dabble in historical fiction as successfully as Assassin’s Creed. The franchise has made taking gamers back in time to long-lost civilizations with detailed renditions of some of the world’s most iconic cities of all time into its bread and butter. From the Crusade-era adventures of the very first installment to its upcoming Baghdad chapter, Ubisoft has found a way to convey history lessons to its audience through its deadly espionage-focused gameplay. With Assassin’s Creed Mirage set to re-enact 9th-century Baghdad through the lens of Basim, the franchise has touched on just about every state of European and Middle Eastern history. Still, locations like colonial Australia need some representation in the Assassin’s Creed universe.
