There are no more Assassin's Creed remakes in development, because Ubisoft are focused on Hexe, Invictus and "projects you haven't heard about yet"
Ubisoft have announced that they aren't working on any more Assassin's Creed remakes for the moment, despite learning a "tremendous amount" from Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced. Instead, it's all shoulders to the wheel for a thrilling future that contains witches, a stronger sense of narrative cohesion, and possibly some kind of Assassin's Creed Smash Bros equivalent. In the shorter term, Ubisoft are still adding things to both Resynced and Assassin's Creed Valhalla. Read more

Preservationist Saves Japan's Mobile-Exclusive Shining Wind Sequel from Limbo
Don't call it a callback... A dedicated preservationist has rescued and reactivated one of the rarest titles in the Shining series . Shining Wind X , a mobile spin-off/sequel to 2007's Shining Wind , was deleted years ago by publisher Sega, but Yuvi ("YuviApp") , a modder dedicated to preserving titles long thought lost, has recently saved the obscure release from oblivion. Originally launched in 2008, Shining Wind X ("Shining Wind Cross") showcases the continuing adventures of the cast featured in its PS2 predecessor, replacing the standard hack 'n' slash action gameplay with turn-based tactical battles. The original Shining Wind came late in the PS2's life and thus saw little to no appreciation outside its native Japan - despite Shining's long history within the RPG genre.
