Overview
- Ubisoft Annecy was informed last week after an internal session with Vantage, according to multiple reports citing French outlet Origami.
- The project evolved from an Assassin’s Creed Shadows season pass DLC into a smaller standalone concept that reused portions of Shadows’ map for up to four players, possibly in the same era.
- An invite-only alpha that had been planned for May 2026 is no longer moving forward.
- Around ten developers are now focused on integrating the co-op technology into the Anvil engine to support cheaper, reusable multiplayer features in future Assassin’s Creed releases.
- Reports say roughly 85 Annecy staff had been working on League, leaving many developers uncertain about their next assignments.
