Ubisoft launched "Assassin's Creed Unity" only last month but the plot for the next video game from the developer has already been leaked, saying that the new "Assassin's Creed" game will have a Victorian setting. 

The report was leaked by Kotaku, saying that the game developer will call the next installment of the action-packed history-based stealth game "Assassin's Creed Victory," and it will be set during the Victorian era in Great Britain, particularly in the city of London in England. The players of the game will have to portray the role of an Assassin who will hunt down and prevent the Templar Order from unleashing evil forces into the world. 

"Assassin's Creed Victory" is reportedly the first video game being developed by the studios in Ubisoft Quebec. Traditionally, since 2007, the games are developed in Ubisoft's Montreal office. In addition, the website also mentioned that the upcoming "Assassin's Creed" installment will be the only game from the series that will be released in Fall 2015, according to the information given by an insider from Ubisoft. 

Although Ubisoft has already confirmed the news regarding the details of "Assassin's Creed Victory," the game developers were saddened with the sudden release of leaked reports about their upcoming game. In a statement posted on PC Gamer, Ubisoft stated: 

It is always unfortunate when internal assets, not intended for public consumption, are leaked. And, while we certainly welcome anticipation for all of our upcoming titles, we're disappointed for our fans, and our development team, that this conceptual asset is now public. The team in our Quebec studio has been hard at work on the particular game in question for the past few years, and we're excited to officially unveil what the studio has been working on at a later date. In the meantime, our number one priority is enhancing the experience of Assassin's Creed Unity for players."
