TheAssassins Creedmovie failed for many reasons, and since its release, its just aged poorly.
In 2016, there hadnt beenmany good video game adaptations- so it was easier to cutAssassins Creedsome slack.
But since then, many video game adaptations have actually surpassed expectations.
The result is a convoluted mess of genres and styles that don’t fit together.

If another adaptation is made, itneeds to be more of a historical epic than a sci-fi drama.
