Assassin's Creed Shadows apparently isn't the only game Ubisoft had up its sleeve, as reports of a now-canceled Civil War Assassin's Creed surface – a cancellation that fans of the series are largely not happy to hear about, judging by recent reactions online.
The Civil War-era game was reportedly scrapped due to Ubisoft's concerns about the United States' political climate. It was supposedly set to feature a former slave as its assassin – one who would take on the likes of the Ku Klux Klan. As Game File described the cancellation, it came as the unnamed Assassin's Creed entry was "too political in a country too unstable, to make it short." Fans aren't too thrilled, though – and they're sharing why.
