A famous parkour athlete has seemingly confirmed that the next Assassin's Creed game in the series, potentially Assassin's Creed Unity, will feature horizontal wall running, besides the regular freerunning moves seen before in the series.

Assassin's Creed games amazed plenty of players with its great parkour gameplay, as characters were able to easily climb buildings and run around the roofs, all in some really fluid motions.

While this system has evolved over time with each iteration, there are still some moves seen in other games that have yet to appear in the Creed series, like wall running, which has been around since the Prince of Persia days at Ubisoft.

Now, in an old video released back in December that's recently surfaced via Reddit, parkour athlete Jesse La Flair demonstrates horizontal wall running and comments that it might be seen in a future Assassin's Creed game.

"What if I told you I may or may not have worked on the next [Assassin's Creed] and they may or may not have added the ability to Horizontal Wall Run in the game," he said.

As of yet, nothing concrete is known but Ubisoft did promise a full-fledged reveal of Assassin's Creed Unity in the near future, so expect to hear more soon.
