Renaissance in Assassin’s Creed canon
- Assassin’s Creed: Renaissance is a novel by Oliver Bowden, based on the Assassin’s Creed II storyline. It was released in the UK in November 2009 and in North America in February 2010. This is a literary adaptation rather than a game entry, and it follows Ezio Auditore da Firenze’s journey during the Italian Renaissance. [cite ][cite ]

Recent updates related to the franchise
- The broader Assassin’s Creed franchise has seen significant activity in 2025–2026, including talks of remasters/remakes and new live-action projects, as part of Ubisoft’s ongoing expansion of the series across games, media, and re-releases. This includes reports about remasters and potential new titles and media adaptations, which influence the overall franchise direction. [cite ][cite ][cite ]

How that relates to Renaissance specifically
- There has been no official new game titled “Assassin’s Creed: Renaissance” announced as a standalone entry; the original Renaissance link remains a novel tied to the Ezio saga, not a modern game release. If you’re looking for in-universe references or tie-ins, the Ezio-era arc is most strongly represented in Assassin’s Creed II (and its media adaptations). [cite ][cite ]
