Netflix and Ubisoft have announced that they are teaming up to develop and release three exclusive games based on the world’s most iconic franchises. These three games will be released exclusively on Netflix, and they will expand on the Valiant Hearts, Mighty Quest, and Assassin’s Creed universes. All three games will be available on mobile to all Netflix subscribers around the world with no ads or in-purchases making them premium titles for the Netflix catalog.
Starting with the new Valiant Hearts game, it will be a sequel to Ubisoft’s original award-winning Valiant Hearts: The Great War. The original core team will mantle the direction of the title and it will retain the same DNA whilst featuring a new story. It is slated for release in January 2023 on Netflix which means that the game is already in development. The second title is The Mighty Quest which is also slated for release on Netflix in 2023.
This comes after the original The Mighty Quest for Epic Loot mobile game and the new title will draw its inspiration from the roguelike genre to deliver an experience that celebrates the series’ premier hack-and-slash combat in a fresh and highly replayable format. Finally, Assassin’s Creed fans will be happy to know that a new Assassin’s Creed game is currently in development for mobile devices which will release exclusively on Netflix. This is separate from the previously announced Assassin’s Creed live-action series.
Mike Verdu, Vice President of Games, Netflix commented:
We’re thrilled to work with Ubisoft, whose track record creating memorable worlds for fans is unmatched. This partnership will provide our members with exclusive access to some of the most exciting game franchises as we continue to build a catalog of great mobile games for our members around the world.
Jean-Michel Detoc, Chief Mobile Officer, Ubisoft also added:
As we continue to create great experiences on all platforms, we’re glad to be partnering with such an innovative and creative partner as Netflix. I believe that this partnership will be a great opportunity for Netflix members to further explore our worlds and universes on mobile.
