A still from the Assassin's Creed movie where Aguilar the assassin is fighting a couple of baddies. I have added a speech bubble so he is saying 'I walked so Netflix could soar'

I’m dead serious, on both counts. Netflix’s NX Twitter account just Twote out a little teaser for a live action Assassin’s Creed Netflix Original Series.

Second only to Grand Theft Auto, Assassin’s Creed may have left the largest mark on open-world games as we know them. But while we’ve all had our digs at climbable towers and cluttered maps, one Ubisoft developer claims that some of the historical stab ’em up’s most tangential activities weren’t spurred on by the team – but instead crunched out in a five-day haze after failing to excite a chief executive’s kid.
