Third Assassin's Creed May Feature Female Assassin
Team looking for proper context to introduce female assassin, considering World War II.

Think that World War II is overused? What about World War II with assassins? Assassin's Creed II won't be out until November, but Ubisoft is apparently thinking about the setting of the next game. Even more interesting is the possibility that the assassin would be a woman.
Producer Sebastien Puel told magazine Xbox World 360 (via Computer and Video Games), "We've had discussions on [the topic of a female assassin]. It could be really interesting but we'd need to find the right time period and place for that. "
"Where would that make sense? We don't want to just decide we want to change and have a female hero as the first inspiration is always the time period, but if you're talking about, say, World War II the economies in England and France were run by women because the men were off fighting."
"So maybe in this context you were a woman in England during WWII. Why not? Nothing prevents us from doing it."
Ubisoft is definitely set on going ahead with this franchise. "What's so great about Assassin's Creed is that we can just expand and expand," said creative director Patrice Fortier.
"I'm often asked if we're doing a third game after ACII... I mean, we could do 35 of these."
In the meantime though, we're still waiting for the second game. It's due November 17 on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC, and will be set in the Renaissance.
