July 30, 2020 - Today, Ubisoft announced that the first original Chinese comic "Assassin's Creed: Dynasty" will be launched on August 26 on the New Manga and Tencent Comics platforms. The comic is produced by the domestic professional comic platform "New Manga" and led by the well-known Chinese cartoonist Xu Xianzhe.

The "Assassin's Creed: Dynasty" comic will be launched on August 26 and will be updated biweekly!

"Assassin's Creed: Dynasty" was created together with Xu Xianzhe (representative work: "The Bodyguard"), the "No. 1 Chinese Comic" cartoonist under New Manga, and Zhang Xiao, the "comic award harvester" cartoonist. It is set in the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty in China and tells the story of the assassin Li E who struggled hard to fight against the civil strife of the dynasty, turned the tide, established the predecessor of the Chinese Assassin Brotherhood - "The Invisible Ones", and eventually became a generation of master assassins.

Assassin's Creed: Dynasty also retains the characteristics of the Assassin's Creed series that combines real history and artistic creation. The creative team spent two years researching historical facts, local customs, human relationships, military equipment, and clothing, and visited Xi'an to collect materials and verify them. They also invited Professor Meng Xianshi, the main speaker of the "One Hundred Schools Forum" and vice dean of the School of History of Renmin University, to serve as a historical consultant in order to restore the true style of the Tang Dynasty in the comics.

"I would like to thank Ubisoft for inviting me to participate in the creation of the Assassin's Creed: Dynasty comics and for giving me a lot of creative space. We have organically combined the grand worldview of Assassin's Creed with the Chinese spirit of chivalry, and have put a lot of effort into historical research, hoping to present Assassin's Creed full of the charm of Chinese history to players," said Mr. Xu Xianzhe, a well-known cartoonist. "At the same time, we have also buried a lot of Easter eggs in the comics, waiting for you to discover."

“We are very pleased to be able to cooperate with the well-known domestic comic platform and top cartoonists. From the initial concept to the launch of the comic, it has gathered the efforts and hard work of everyone involved,” said Mr. Yu Xinming, Brand Manager of Ubisoft China. “The launch of an Assassin’s Creed work set in ancient Chinese history has always been anticipated by domestic players, and we can’t wait to see the reactions of fans after reading Assassin’s Creed: Dynasty.”
