Next Assassin’s Creed game set in Victorian London?

Could the next Assassin’s Creed game be set in Victorian London? It’s certainly not out of the question, it seems.

While speaking to GamesRadar about the possibility of the next Assassin’s Creed game being set in Victorian London, Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood game director Patrick Plourde said “Late C19 would be amazing”.

He later went on to say “I have Sherlock Holmes, the Arthur Conan Doyle stuff on my bedside table. It’s a big brick – all the novels in one book!”

“I think there’s huge potential there for another game – and instead of the game being close to Batman it’d be more like James Bond.”

We think it’s a pretty interesting idea, could you imagine playing as Jack the Ripper, perhaps? Where would you like to see the series go next?
