Codename Red is being led by Ubisoft Quebec, the studio behind Odyssey. Players will be able to explore Feudal Japan and “live a very powerful shinobi fantasy.” Not much was revealed about the title, but this article will be updated if more information drops during the showcase. It was only revealed as “on the horizon,” so Ubisoft isn’t currently discussing a release window.

This reveal wasn’t exactly a surprise since it was reported on well before the fact. Insider Jeff Grubb spoke of this title in July, something that was later corroborated by other sources.
