It is understood that "Assassin's Creed: Invictus" is an independent multiplayer online game, focusing on a competitive experience similar to "Battle Royale", including death match, free-for-all and other game modes.This is also the first time the "Assassin's Creed" series has restarted multiplayer elements after many years.

However, the departure of the production manager has also raised concerns about the status of the project.After all, the "Assassin's Creed" series' attempts at multiplayer gameplay have been ups and downs - from early PVP and cooperative missions to the later complete cancellation of online modes, it has never been able to find a stable direction.Now returning to this area, Ubisoft seems to be still figuring out how to establish a clear positioning for "Invictus".
