Assassin’s Creed hasn’t been doing the best these last few years. With games that failed to live up to the golden standards set by their predecessors, the franchise has entered a sort of limbo where every release tied to it is met with skepticism rather than excitement.
A few years ago, while the series was still living off its prime, Ubisoft tried to pivot into moviemaking. The end result wasn’t great, nor did the box office see it perform as well as it should, and so that was the end of that story, too.
But now, Ubisoft wants to bring Assassin’s Creed to the stage. Heredis: Echoes of the Past will see the franchise as a basis of a stage production that, as Rock Paper Shotgun writes, will be marked by “acrobatics, urban parkour, choreographed combat, and physical feats within large-scale immersive visual environments.” It’s not adapting any game per se, but will rather portray various historical epochs, much as the franchise itself has done over the last two decades.
In fact, the show seems to be primarily “inspired” by the games rather than being a proper adaptation, though its official website says that “fans will certainly find many references to their favorite game.” The story follows Naël, a man whose father has gone missing, the search for whom leads him to the HEREDIS program. Nael is met with “a series of trials across different historical eras in a quest to find his father,” and probably comes across some Templars, too.
Though Animus and Abstergo aren’t mentioned by name, it’s almost certain that the HEREDIS program is something that the Templars had come up with either to replace, to improve, or to iterate on the Animus and all the other technologies and schemes we’ve seen in the games so far. It’s a nice way to expand the Assassin’s Creed universe even if it isn’t canon, since its core tale of powerful elites struggling to become even stronger from the shadows is incredibly open for experimentation, especially considering that this core narrative arch stretches thousands of years in the games.
It also appears, at least going off the promotional image that we’ve featured in this article, that we’re going to see some modern-time AC stories. Since Desmond Miles was taken out of the equation back in AC 3, we haven’t seen much of the world outside the Animus, and though some are quite happy that that’s almost been cut from the franchise completely, I, for one, adored all those sequences that had us visiting locations from the games from a contemporary perspective.
The play is to be performed in Montréal and Paris starting from Dec. 3, with the final show to take place on Feb. 7.
