At the Ubisoft Forward digital event, the US-based streaming company Netflix and video game developer Ubisoft announced plans to create three mobile games beginning next year.

About The Mobile Games
Valiant Hearts
The original core team has directed a new Valiant Hearts game, the sequel to Ubisoft’s multi-award-winning game Valiant Hearts: The Great War, which will retain the same DNA while featuring a new story. In January 2023, Netflix members will be able to play the new game.
Mighty Quest
The Mighty Quest will return to Netflix in 2023 with a new game inspired by the roguelike genre, claiming to deliver an experience that celebrates the series’ first hack-and-slash combat in a new and highly replayable format.
Assassin’s Creed
Assassin’s Creed fans can immerse themselves in the Assassin’s Creed universe on Netflix in a variety of ways: A new mobile game is being developed exclusively for Netflix in addition to the previously announced live-action series.
Mike Verdu, Vice President of Games, Netflix said, “We’re thrilled to work with Ubisoft, whose track record creating memorable worlds for fans is unmatched. This partnership will provide our members with exclusive access to some of the most exciting game franchises as we continue to build a catalogue of great mobile games for our members around the world.”
Jean-Michel Detoc, Chief Mobile Officer, Ubisoft said, “As we continue to create great experiences on all platforms, we’re glad to be partnering with such an innovative and creative partner as Netflix. I believe that this partnership will be a great opportunity for Netflix members to further explore our worlds and universes on mobile.”
