Assassin’s Creed 3, Assassin’s Creed Rogue and Assassin’s Creed Unity establish facts about the timeline of the Assassin’s Creed universe which leave a glaring hole in the timeline with each new game that is announced. And while fans can easily expect the time difference to explain this, knowing how would be nice.

The coolest news was that this new title (possible Assassin’s Creed 3?) would be the first installment in the franchise to introduce multiplayer!

I think if gamers had to choose what they want from multiplayer, co-op is what we want. Let’s play the other Assassin’s and work together!...

Desmond himself has not appeared in a game in ten years, even if mainstays like Shaun, Rebecca, and his father have never forgotten him or his sacrifice. Assassin’s Creed 3 was considered by many to be the end of Desmond’s story at release, but AC3’s unique relationship with Assassin’s Creed Valhalla shows how Desmond’s story never truly ended—it just went into hibernation....

“With the country starting to open up this holiday weekend, I again remind everyone that the coronavirus is not yet contained,” Stephen Hahn, commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration, tweeted Sunday. “It is up to every individual to protect themselves and their community. Social distancing, hand washing, and wearing masks protect us all.” For many, it was the first time heading outdoors since isolation measures began. But the social distancing practiced thoughtfully early in the pandemic appeared to have vanished in many cases during this last weekend in May....
While this information did not surprise us, we feel gutted, knowing it threatens everything we are fighting to achieve. Around the peak of New York City’s COVID-19 surge, we co-founded AmplifyThis! to help frontline medical experts manage the sudden onslaught of media requests as they attempted to offer sound public health messaging to a country in crisis.

Ukraine’s Ministry of Reintegration of Temporarily Occupied Territories on Wednesday raised alarm in response to a report by a U.S. think tank detailing Russia’s efforts to forcibly assimilate Ukrainians caught behind enemy lines. Following reports of Ukrainians being forced to relocate to sometimes remote areas of Russia, the research raises concerns the Kremlin is seeking to change the cultural makeup of Ukraine. “Russian President Vladimir Putin is likely setting conditions for the coerced cultural assimilation of displaced Ukrainians in Russia to erase their Ukrainian cultural identity,” reads the report by the Institute for the Study of War (ISW)....
