What do we know about the leak of Assassin’s Creed Codename Red?
Reddit user, u/DudeWithName posted about the source of the leak in r/GamingLeaksandRumors. Considering the credibility of the source, it is advisable to approach this rumor with caution as it emerges from 4chan, an anonymous forum where the identity of individuals remains unknown.
The leak purportedly comes from a Q/A Tester employed at Ubisoft Quebec. Assassin’s Creed: Edo is the new rebranded name for what was Codename Red according to the leak. Users on the forum were excited to know that the game will be set in the Edo era.
Despite the potential legitimacy of the information provided by the Q/A Tester, bear in mind that leaks can be unreliable. Ubisoft has not yet officially confirmed or denied the existence of Assassin’s Creed Edo or any such details.
The Tokugawa Shogunate governed Japan during the Edo Period, characterized by a mix of civil conflicts and notable economic advancement. This era also witnessed the implementation of strict isolationist policies that limited foreign influence. Japan’s unique cultural development improved during that time. The period lasted from 1603 to 1867.
