There hasn’t been any official information on any of the newly announced games. Ubisoft has opened up a forum for Far Cry 5 and The Crew 2 which will likely be updated with new information when it becomes available.
As of now there are a few rumors and leaked information on Far Cry 5 and Assassin’s Creed. Far Cry 5 has been rumored to be a Spaghetti Western and to take place in the U.S Great Plains. The information is based on an article by GreatFallsTribune which describes a church in Montana that was used for a film that details the backstory for a well established series. This article was then examined in a neogaf thread where the information was seemingly confirmed by journalist Jason Schreier who previously detailed Density before it was revealed.
Assassin’s Creed received a major leak a week ago. The leak includes an image of the protagonist on boat, information on the story and some details on the gameplay. In short the game will take place in Egpyt, have some sort of naval gameplay, and focus on the start of the Assassins. Most of the information was leaked on Reddit, but later confirmed by various gaming news sites.
