Even more Assassin's Creed leaks have cropped up online, and this time, they 
may have revealed the identity of the Codename Hexe's main character and her 
surprising lineage from another fan-favorite assassin.  Even more
Assassin's Creed leaks have cropped up online, and this time, they may have 
revealed the identity of the Codename Hexe 's main character and her 
surprising lineage. 

The information comes from prominent Ubisoft leaker ' j0nathan ' (via IGN ), 
who claims to have shared the first screenshot from the game showing Hexe 's 
protagonist crouched in a tree, wearing assassin garb and Hidden Blade poised 
to strike. "They call me a witch," is one alleged voice line, along with "The 
forest moves at night."

The leaker also shared apparent plot details for the witchcraft-inspired 
game, along with the identity of the main character: a woman named Anika who 
has an older assassin mentor named Wolfgang. 

It's said that Anika's previously known name, Elsa, was a placeholder name, 
but this is where things get interesting. Disclaimer Potential spoilers ahead 
for Assassin's Creed Hexe It's claimed that Anika is the descendant of 
Claudia Auditore, and if you're a fan of the series, you'll know that Claudia 
is the sister of Assassin's Creed 2 protagonist, Ezio Auditore da Firenze. 
This would make Anika a direct descendant of Ezio. 

It's also said that the beloved assassin will return in some form and act as 
a guide to Anika, but not be physically present, and will have multiple 
voicelines that include parts of The Creed and the likes of "Come. Leap with 
me. One last time for an old man."

While the possibility of witchcraft isn't off the table, the leaker said that 
Anika will feel Ezio's presence through some sort of Isu recording, a memory 
disc, flashbacks, or similar technology. 

As for the story, Hexe will take place in Wrzburg, Germany, during the witch 
trials in 1625, and non-playable characters (NPCs) will seemingly try to 
report and capture Anika for practicing witchcraft. 

The game will also have "lots of forests", mission objectives that require 
players to "find the ritual sites" and "recover the stolen relics", as well 
as unlockable skills like "tree-to-tree jumping."

 Assassin's Creed Hexe doesn't have a release date yet, but could be released 
in 2027, and it is reported that the game "will not be an RPG", unlike 
previous entries in the series. 

 The game's original creative director, Clint Hocking, departed the studio 
for the second time earlier this year after Ubisoft appointed three 
experienced Assassin's Creed developers to lead the franchise at the 
company's newly formed Tencent-funded subsidiary Vantage Studios . 

Ubisoft has confirmed that Jean Guesdon, the creative director on Black Flag 
and Origins , will now lead Assassin's Creed Hexe .
