As an Assassin’s Creed fan, I’m really being spoilt for choice this year. There’s not one, but two very different games hitting shelves in December, with Unity set for current-gen and Rogue aiming at keeping older console players happening. One would expect that both would be coming to PC too, but that’s not the case. For now at least.
Assassin’s Creed Unity is making it’s way to PC, but Rogue is surprisingly skipping the master race. This got Ubisoft in a little hot water with fans, who now have to way to experience the conclusion to Assassin’s Creed American Saga, one which has spanned two titles already. Two titles that were available on PC.
That could change though. Assassin’s Creed Rogue’s associate producer, Karl Von Der Luhe, has stated in an interview that Ubisoft isn’t deaf to the PC community’s interest in the game.
Assassin’s Creed Rogue is being developed for 360 and PS3, We’ve heard a lot of response requesting a PC version, so we’ll be looking into that very soon.
That’s far from solid confirmation, but at least Ubisoft isn’t completely ignoring the possibility of Rogue coming to PC in the future. Then again I would expect Rogue to come to newer consoles in the near future too, as is custom with most Assassin’s Creed titles. Earlier this year the once Vita exclusive Assassin’s Creed Liberation made its debut on console and PC.
Assassin’s Creed Unity and Rogue hit shelves this November.

Lol. You know what this is? poisenous marketing schemes. They are making games on PC then making sequels and not putting them on PC (Tomb Raider anyone?). This way they are trying to influence the market to increase console sales because they hope people will be desperate enough to then get a console for the game.
That way they save on dev time and make more cash because the console games are more expensive. Drug dealers do exactly the same thing. They start you out on high end stuff and then give lower quality stuff each time forcing you back more frequently to get your fix.
It’s laughable how they can do this. Really it is. Why am I not surprised to hear it’s Ubisoft? I bet EA would do exactly the same. Release a game or 2 on PC and then take away the sequels from the platform.
Genius I tell you. Genius*

I just love his quote, reading between the lines it’s like, “Gosh, people want a PC version too? We NEVER thought of that, what a surprise that is. But we’ll look into it for you.”
