The confirmed leak which was confirmed by Ubisoft is that we're going to be getting an assassin's creed game that goes back to the older assassin's creed games
If you take out the assassin's creed part of the game you can still pretty much go through the game
and still have fun with your Viking game or even your spartan game
You can still understand what's going on and it will still feel like the game that they intended to make
The recent games are just completely devoid of anything that has to do with assassins at all well
The new assassin's creed games they're not that bad honestly
You could make a pretty damn good stealthy Assassin's Creed games with the current mechanics
of assassin's creed valhalla
Because aside from Assassin's
Creed unity which had really great stealth and fantastic parkour
You can use all of these mechanics like the sleep dart or you can use the smoke bomb and so on to be stealthy
But it wasn't stealth like splinter cell, it was pretty close to that but it wasn't as detailed or even games like thief
