Ezio Auditore, one of Assassin’s Creed’s most iconic characters, will return in a new game this August. He will appear in Reverse: 1999 alongside Kassandra and Alexios from Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, marking a distinct crossover event for the franchise.
It was recently announced that Ezio Auditore and the lead characters from Assassin’s Creed Odyssey will appear in Reverse: 1999, a turn-based tactical RPG developed by Bluepoch Games. This collaboration is the first globally synchronized event for Reverse: 1999, which will launch simultaneously on all servers in August 2025.
Since its release in October 2023, Reverse: 1999 has attracted over 30 million players. The partnership with Ubisoft allows players to control Ezio in a new setting, with the crossover split into two phases.
The partnership between Reverse: 1999 and the Assassin’s Creed franchise marks the first-ever globally synched version of Reverse: 1999. All servers will launch the collaboration events at the same time, ensuring equality and unified progress of rewards for players worldwide.
Legendary Assassin’s Creed 2 character Ezio will make his debut in Reverse: 1999 during the collaboration. Each of the two phases of this crossover event will bring a fresh new story to the time-travelling game.
The first phase occurs in Renaissance Florence, where Ezio Auditore appeared in 2009. The second phase shifts to Ancient Greece, allowing players to control Kassandra and Alexios, two prominent protagonists from Assassin’s Creed Odyssey.
This crossover offers a new way to experience Ezio’s character years after his original trilogy, highlighting his lasting appeal.
