Wild West (American Frontier 17th Century AD)
Future Assassin’s Creed Settings Ubisoft Should Use
The Wild West is yet another frequently used setting in video games that Assassin’s Creed could bring its own unique spin to. Ideally, a Wild West game would cast you as some kind of noble outlaw, constantly hounding the efforts of the Templars trying to gain control of the American Frontier.
There are countless legends of the Wild West that could appear; Billy the Kid, Wyatt Earp, Jesse James, Doc Holiday, the list goes on. The era of Cowboys and Outlaws was heavy in idealism, and like in the Age of Piracy, people lived according to their own set of goals and ideals. This makes the time period perfect for the philosophical conflict between the Assassins and Templars. Really, in the end though, who doesn’t want to see a duel-wielding Assassin with a pair of sleek pistols?
