Ubisoft presents Heredis: a new stage spectacle from the world of Assassin's Creed

Ubisoft has announced Heredis, a new stage spectacle set within the world of Assassin's Creed. The two-hour show promises a unique blend of circus techniques, acrobatics, and dance, performed by the talented artists of Les 7 Doigts (The 7 Fingers). With a concept that combines elements of urban parkour, choreographed combat, and impressive physical feats, audiences will be immersed in grand, cinematic environments inspired by the Assassin's Creed games.

The plot of Heredis follows a young man searching for his father, who disappeared years ago. On his 25th birthday, he receives a mysterious letter that leads him to the Heredis program. That search sets the stage for a journey that spans time. While details on how the show connects to the existing Assassin's Creed trilogy are still scarce, artwork for the production suggests a character that strongly resembles Desmond Miles, a central figure in the franchise. That opens up intriguing possibilities for exploring elements of the series' canon.

Key facts

• The show runs for two hours and delivers a dynamic, technical experience.

• Heredis is an original Assassin's Creed story, not dependent on the video games.

• Large immersive environments are inspired by different Assassin's Creed games.

• The spectacle will take place in cities such as Montreal and Paris.

The artists and production

The show is produced by the acclaimed company Les 7 Doigts, known for its innovative and immersive performances.

The wide range of skills on display from the performers is expected to attract plenty of viewers, including those unfamiliar with the video games.

Future outlook

Heredis is not only an exciting expansion of the Assassin's Creed universe, but also a sign of future collaborations and stage projects in the entertainment industry.
