Ubisoft Slashes Prices Across Assassin’s Creed Series, With Steep Cuts On Flagship Games
The Assassin’s Creed franchise sale is now live, offering some of the deepest discounts the long-running series has seen in years. Ubisoft has reduced prices across much of its catalogue, including major open-world entries and several older releases, creating an unusually low-cost entry point into a franchise that has expanded steadily since its debut in 2007. The sale includes price cuts of up to 90 percent on select titles, alongside a notable discount on the most recent release.
The steepest reductions apply to Assassin’s Creed Origins and Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. Both games are discounted by 90 percent, bringing their prices down to $6 or £5 each. These two entries represent Ubisoft’s modern reinvention of the series, built around expansive maps, role-playing systems, and long-form progression. Valhalla is the larger of the two in scope, offering a broad depiction of Dark Age England, extended questlines, and layered combat and settlement mechanics. It incorporates ideas that do not appear in Origins, including more developed base-building systems and broader regional arcs.
Origins, released earlier, focuses on Roman-occupied Egypt and marked the structural turning point for the series. Its setting includes cities, deserts, and major historical landmarks such as the Great Pyramids, with a narrative that centers on the formation of the Assassin Brotherhood. While its systems are less extensive than Valhalla’s, the game is often noted for its more contained story and distinctive environment.

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey follows closely in value, priced at $9 or £7.49. Set in Ancient Greece during the Peloponnesian War, Odyssey allows players to traverse a large portion of the Aegean world and engage with both historical and mythological elements. The game includes large-scale naval exploration, branching questlines, and encounters with figures such as Medusa and the Minotaur. Its scale rivals Valhalla, though its mechanics are spread across a wider range of systems.
For players interested in the series’ current direction, Assassin’s Creed Shadows is available at half price, listed at $35 or £30. Shadows is set in feudal Japan, a location long requested by fans. It places greater emphasis on stealth than many previous entries, with mechanics designed to support infiltration and concealment more reliably than in earlier games. As the newest release, its inclusion in the sale stands out, particularly given reports that the game has performed strongly since launch.

The sale also extends to several older Assassin’s Creed titles. Assassin’s Creed Unity is discounted by 85 percent, bringing its price to $4.50 or £3.89. Unity launched with widespread technical issues that overshadowed its design, but subsequent updates have left it in a far more stable state. Set in revolutionary Paris, the game features dense urban environments, detailed interiors, and a crowd system that remains distinctive. Visually, it continues to hold up more than a decade after release.

Assassin’s Creed Black Flag is reduced by 70 percent to $12 or £10.19. Often regarded as one of the strongest entries in the earlier era of the franchise, Black Flag is built around naval exploration and ship combat during the Golden Age of Piracy. For those primarily interested in that mechanical focus, Assassin’s Creed Rogue offers a similar experience at a lower cost. Rogue is discounted by 85 percent, priced at $3 or £2.54, and reuses many of Black Flag’s systems while presenting a different narrative perspective.
Assassin’s Creed 2 is also included, available for $5 or £2.14. While dated in several respects, it represents the point at which the series established many of its defining mechanics and storytelling conventions. Newer entries offer smoother controls and broader systems, but the game remains historically significant within the franchise.

The Assassin’s Creed franchise sale arrives as Ubisoft continues to expand the series. Reports indicate that Shadows is exceeding internal financial expectations, and work on the next mainline Assassin’s Creed title is already underway. In parallel, a remake of Assassin’s Creed Black Flag has been widely rumored, with repeated leaks suggesting active development. Another upcoming project, Assassin’s Creed Hexe, is reportedly set in the Holy Roman Empire and is being co-directed by Clint Hocking, known for his work on Watch Dogs: Legion.
Taken together, the sale reflects both the size of Ubisoft’s back catalogue and the company’s ongoing commitment to the franchise. For newcomers and returning players alike, the current pricing offers access to nearly two decades of releases at a fraction of their original cost.
