Next Assassin's Creed teased in The Division 2: Vikings

An unusual teaser in Ubisoft’s loot shooter The Division 2, highlighted weeks after the game’s release, reveals that the next Assassin’s Creed game is all about Vikings. Kotaku can independently confirm the same.
The Division 2 launched on March 15, but it wasn’t until this week that discussion about a possible teaser located within the Potomac Event Center in the game’s version of Washington DC started generating buzz. As first made public by YouTuber JorRaptor, there are numerous posters all over this event center, picturing what appears to be a Norse god or traveler adorned with the word Valhalla.
What’s particularly interesting is that said traveler is holding what appears to be the Apple of Eden, a pivotal piece of technology in Assassin’s Creed lore.

So does this mean that the next Assassin’s Creed, confirmed by Ubisoft to be skipping 2019 and going straight to 2020 (just in time for the expected release of next-gen consoles), is all about Vikings? Well, yes. Yes it does. A few months before this teaser emerged, Kotaku learned from two independent sources familiar with the game that 2020's Assassin’s Creed, code-named Kingdom, does indeed star Vikings. We don’t know much else about the game, but after the phenomenal Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, we’re stoked to see what’s coming.
Ubisoft declined to comment.
This teaser is a strange one. Ubisoft has a long history of sticking teases for future games in its current ones, most infamously with Pioneer, a project that was shown off in a Watch Dogs 2 mission before it was canceled and then brought back to life in a different form. A new patch for Watch Dogs 2 also dropped a major clue for Watch Dogs 3, telling the world that it would be set in London (which it is).
What’s unusual about this tease in The Division 2 is that it’s subtle—who would’ve thought to look for the Apple of Eden in this poster?—yet it’s also in your face, with dozens of copies of this poster hanging all throughout the event center. It’s not clear whether it was officially sanctioned by Ubisoft HQ or just stuck in there by a cheeky artist, but it’s fascinating nonetheless.
Fans had long theorized that the next Assassin’s Creed would be set in Rome, after an old 4chan post that accurately revealed Assassin’s Creed Origins before it was announced said it was part of a trilogy including games in Rome and Greece. Several recent rumors had given traction to that theory—rumors that are almost certainly incorrect. Vikings and boats and pirate raids are the route Ubisoft is headed in 2020.

Agreed.
Although, I'm more looking forward to feudal Japan.

Oh man. Just thinking about how ubisoft could handle some of the Norse mythology has me all hot and bothered.

I may be in the few, but I don’t care about the ship aspect of Assassin’s Creed

Same. I've gotten better with it, but if I could skip all boat sequences, I would.

I know it's probably needed for world immersion, but I agree. There's nothing exciting about them.
Black flag was the only one that was somewhat cool because of the Caribbean pirate feel.

Laugh all you want. Ubisoft is owning it right now. Origins and Odyssey are amazing games.

Crazy to think Ubisoft makes the better titles. They owned the crown since 2017 with Origins. The FarCry games are good too.

They both were. Especially Origins, because of the setting, but Odyssey refined what Origins started. Assassins Creed was in a slump before Origins, glad it’s back

Carson doesn't know shite about video games. He's a tenticle porn loving weaboo. The last 2 Assassin's Creed were awesome.

SidB is incapable of understanding games with any sort of depth (like Nier) so he has to call its fans "weebs" and the like. He's into shallow copy/paste games (basically everything Ubisoft makes) and open world trash where he can mindlessly visit question marks and grind

You basically shite on everything so why should anyone take your opinion seriously?

Go ahead and post a meme you weeb

That’s a lie If you’d read other threads that don’t involve Bethesda or Ubisoft games, you’d know that
you like everything, so why should anyone take your opinion seriously? at least when I endorse something, people know that it's a well-made, quality game. cant say the same for people that constantly endorse trash

Also if this game doesn't come to Steam, I'm not buying it.
