Assassin's Creed is no stranger to multiplayer; previous titles featured a multiplayer mode and Assassin's Creed Unity attempted to take the franchise to the co-op space.

Assassin's Creed Invictus is rumored to be a live-service multiplayer game, and while it doesn't need to be like Fortnite, it should be in one way.

Assassin’s Creed hasn’t seen any multiplayer elements since 2014’s Assassin’s Creed Unity, which allowed players to team up for co-op missions.

Assassin's Creed Shadows' game director Charles Benoit discusses the possibility of co-op with its dual protagonists.

While the game did add more modes to the multiplayer experience, it wasn’t until Assassin’s Creed Unity that co-op was brought to the main story.
