Assassin’s Creed: Codename Heexe – Latest Details Revealed By Insider Tom Henderson

The secret Assassin’s Creed: Codename Heexe was officially announced by Ubisoft back in 2022. The developers promised to surprise the fans of the franchise with the most unusual game in the series, which stands out for its very dark setting and the difficult time of the Holy Roman Empire in the 16th century. This is where the official information ends, but today we have more interesting details about the game from renowned defender Tom Henderson. Apparently, Assassin’s Creed: Codename Heexe will be very similar to the first games in the series.

The leaker claims that the production of Assassin’s Creed: Codename Heexe is still in the early stages. The game’s internal release date is scheduled for mid-2026 on the Infinity platform. The developers intended this game in the series to be more linear, with little exploration of open or semi-open spaces, as implemented in earlier games in the franchise.

Assassin’s Creed: Codename Heexe will reportedly have only one main character. The plot will unfold from the point of view of a girl named Elsa, who was accused of witchcraft. In addition, the heroine will have some supernatural abilities. Other details about the game are still unknown, but the insider detailed the use of one of the heroine’s abilities, which was shown to him by one of the game’s developers under the condition of remaining anonymous responsibility

Elsa is being hunted by German soldiers from the 16th century (picture of what the soldiers look like here) and she uses a spell to have a cat nearby. The player then controls the cat and uses it to distract the soldiers by knocking over a glass bottle, which breaks on the ground and distracts the soldier.

The overall action gameplay style reflects a very dark tone to the in-game world. According to an insider, the game even implements a special intimidation system, which will be similar to the mechanics of the add-on Assassin’s Creed Syndicate – Jack The Ripper.
