A fresh leak from Ubisoft insider Rogue, posted on Reddit, suggests the legendary Assassin Ezio will appear in the upcoming Assassin’s Creed Hexe. Dialogue snippets show him coaching the new protagonist, Anika, with lines like “Come. Leap with me. One last time for an old man.” His voice could return via veteran actor.

Gameplay details accompanying the leak reveal tree‑scaling mechanics, letting characters bounce between branches. Most of the setting unfolds in Würzburg, where NPCs reportedly flag even minor suspicious activity and may intervene directly. Players will notice a stamina meter tied to climbing, encouraging strategic movement. Combined with confirmed witch‑craft themes, the timeline points to the historic Würzburg witch trials of the 1620s, stretching through 1631.

Anika is said to descend from Ezio’s sister, Claudia Auditore, tying the new narrative to the franchise’s early era despite a 160‑year gap. Because Ezio’s presence would likely be a flashback or an Isu‑generated apparition, his involvement feels like fan service that also deepens the lore. Ubisoft’s choice to weave legacy characters into Hexe could boost interest among series veterans.
