This needs to bomb badly

Hard to say. AssCreed doesn't have a super terrible rep. The last game, Mirage, was a resounding "meh" but seemed to be a turn in the right direction from the sprawling, bloated mess that peaked in Valhalla.
Still, the games have completely given up pretending to be historical pieces and you got all sorts of anachronistic goofy shit.
I wouldn't have minded if Yasuke had been a cameo, a samura's servant as he is historically described, but Ubisoft finally makes a feudal Japan AssCreed and they make it start a black dude because Japanese people aren't diverse enough. So they are making their assassin game that used to be about blending in and centering it on the most conspicuous man in all of Japan.
I am hoping this game bombs just because everyone knows that if this game is a financial success Ubisoft will use the profits to pay off the Skull and Bones debt. It's funny as hell that a AA team making Helldivers 2 - and focusing their game on being FUN - has put Skull and Bones completely out of people's minds.
Thanks, I hate it. Seriously, people have been clamoring for AC: Japan...and this is what they throw them? These people are useless, and can fuck right off.
Sounds like it's time for a Japanese publisher or a based indie dev to take up the mantle. Steal AC's gameplay and make a better, historically accurate open world game. Yeah AC is an overplayed formula but so what, people are still buying. Even better if they can improve on it like Palworld did with Pokemon.
