Netflix has announced another new series based on a popular gaming franchise – this time it’s “Assassin’s Creed”. Ubisofts’s Jason Altman and Danielle Kreinik will serve as Executive Producers for the live-action series.
Update: We have just learned that the deal with Ubisoft will also bring about animated and anime series along with the live-action series. The first series in development is described as an “epic, genre-bending live action adaptation” and the team are currently searching for a showrunner.
Other gaming franchises that have had the Netflix treatment include “Castlevania”, “Resident Evil”, “Dragon’s Lair” and “Cyberpunk: EdgeRunners”.
