Assassin's Creed Unity is an upcoming historical action-adventure open world video game developed by Ubisoft Montreal and published by Ubisoft. It is set to release on October 28, 2014 in North America for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. The game is the seventh major installment in the Assassin's Creed series, and the first since 2013's Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag.

Kotaku also stated that Unity would release in late 2014 on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and would be set during the French Revolution and feature an assassin named Arno.

They also confirmed the game's release date of Q4 2014, and that it would release on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Windows. Ubisoft writer Jeffrey Yohalem revealed that the French Revolution setting for the game was deliberately teased, along with Assassin's Creed III's American Revolution setting, in symbols seen at the end of Assassin's Creed Brotherhood. Ubisoft Montreal is the lead developer for the project, with contributing work from the Ubisoft studios in Toronto, Kiev, Singapore, Shanghai, Annecy, Montpellier, Bucharest, Quebec, and Chengdu.

At E3 2014, Ubisoft announced the game would feature up to four player co-op, a first for the series.
