Whilst many upcoming games have been revealed, some notable titles are Skull and Bones and Tom Clancy’s The Division: Heartland, a particular announcement may just stick out from the rest. This is none other than a future installment to the Assassin’s Creed franchise, which will take the series to the highly requested setting of Japan. Here is everything you need to know.
