The Assassin's Creed series has been around since 2007 and it is one of the longest-running triple-A game franchises out there. And as a way of celebrating the series' longevity, developer Ubisoft has announced a surprise stream set for Tuesday, June 14th - tomorrow as of this writing.
According to GameRant, the stream is set to start on the official YouTube and Twitch channels of Ubisoft on the date at 9AM PST. You can now set a notification for the stream on YouTube to remind you of when it goes live, if you want to check the stream out. Here it is:
As per the stream's description, it is a celebration of the franchise's 15th anniversary and will also serve as a look back at the history of the franchise as a whole. Aside from that, Ubi also promises a "special look" at the future roadmap for Valhalla, alongside a tease of what will come to the series this year.
To cap things off, Ubi also promises a closer look at the new 60FPS gameplay for Assassin's Creed Origins with producer Jose Araiza. Then, new updates regarding extended media content - comics, graphic novels, and even manga - are also going to be revealed during the stream. Aside from those, nothing else was said or even teased about the event, so you'll have to find out for yourself.

What Else Does The Celebratory Assassin's Creed Stream Have?
The celebratory Assassin's Creed stream's other contents are more or less a mystery at this point. It can be safe to say that Ubi is keeping its cards close to its chest when it comes to big potential reveals, which then leads to speculation. So, what else can fans assume will be revealed?
For one, there's the now-confirmed live service title Assassin's Creed Infinity. Since it was formally announced in a blog post on Ubisoft's website last year, other details on Infinity have been almost non-existent. The only things that are known are that the project is a cross-studio collaboration, and it will be headlined by Ubi's Quebec and Montreal studios under the leadership of creative directors Clint Hocking and Jonathan Dumont.
If there's any new details Ubi wants to share about Infinity, then the celebratory Assassin's Creed stream should be the perfect place to do that. Furthermore, there could also be either a confirmation or denial of the existence of Rift (which reportedly stars the Hidden One Basim). Either way, the stream is set and hidden blades are being polished.
