Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot told investors on Thursday that they plan to publish a new Assassin's Creed game during the 2014 financial year.

The game, which is normally developed across several of Ubisoft's global games development studios, will more than likely be revealed at E3 this year.

Yves didn't go into too much detail, he did however confirm that the game will take place in a new time period and star a new character.

The announcement was made during an investor presentation where it was stated that Assassin's Creed 3 sales have reached 12 million units sold... globally.
