Han Dynasty (China Roughly 207 BC)
Future Assassin’s Creed Settings Ubisoft Should Use
Ancient China is another time period that’s been explored consistently in video games, mostly because of the Dynasty Warriors and Romance of the Three Kingdoms series, but now Total War and For Honor are also getting in on the action. There’s a reason it’s a popular time period, as the reign of the Han Dynasty is filled with war, political scheming, heroic actions, and more. There’s a wealth of stories and characters for Assassin’s Creed to dig into, whether it wants to dig into Cao Cao’s rise to power as a warlord, or the Jin Dynasty ending the War of the Three Kingdoms era.
Much like setting a game in Feudal Japan, a Han Dynasty setting could present gorgeous graphical opportunities, with grand castle cities and massive battles to wade through. The series has already made its way to China with the Assassin’s Creed Chronicles subseries, but it’d be a real shame to never get a proper entry set in the country.
