Bluepoch Games has announced that the upcoming collaboration between Reverse: 1999 and the Assassin’s Creed franchise will release in August. The collaboration will release in two phases.
The first phase will take place in the Renaissance in Florence and highlights Ezio Auditore da Firenze, who first debuted in Assassin’s Creed II. Whereas the second phase will take place in Ancient Greece and will likely feature either Alexios or Kassandra from Assassin’s Creed Odyssey. Both phases will release worldwide and will each have its own unique story.
Reverse: 1999 is a cinematic time-travel adventure that sees players control Vertin the Timekeeper, a British Arcanist that’s immune to the mysterious “Storm” that causes the timeline to stop at 1999. It’s up to Vertin to travel between eras and seek out other Arcanists that can save the timeline. In each major update, she will also battle against other Arcanists that wish to use the Storm to rewrite history. The Steam page describes it as follows:
On the last day of 1999, the “Storm” fell upon the world. You witnessed an era reversed beneath the rising raindrops. Defying all reasons, what unfolds in front of you is the world of an era long past.
As the Timekeeper, observer of eras, you are free to travel through these eras after each “Storm.” With the aid of Sonetto, a powerful Arcanist and ally from the Foundation, your mission is to travel through eras to where the “Storm” is most active, find other Arcanists who can sense the coming “Storm,” and save them from being “sifted out” of the timeline.
The Reverse: 1999 and Assassin’s Creed collaboration will release in August. The game is available now for Android, iOS, and PC via Windows and Steam.
