Assassin's Creed has been celebrated for nearly a century now for blending fantasy with science fiction and transporting viewers through centuries of conflict via the Animus. For those wishing to explore the offering for the very first time or pay a timely visit to it, it is important to note that the movie is available for streaming on Netflix, though not universally. While Netflix India houses the title, Netflix USA does not, and therefore, viewers in the latter country will need to rely on alternative streaming subscriptions for viewing pleasures.

American Assassin’s Creed fans can watch the movie on HBO Max, which is available as both a standalone option and as an add-on to a Hulu plan. The film is also simultaneously available for rent and purchase on Prime Video and Apple TV. Meanwhile, as fans search for where to watch Assassin's Creed, Netflix has only a couple of hours ago greenlit a project that would expand the universe following a considerable delay.

A long-gestating Assassin’s Creed live-action series has been ordered by Netflix. The news comes nearly five years after it was first reported that the streaming giant was looking to develop a small-screen adaptation based on the hit video game franchise in collaboration with game publisher Ubisoft. The project witnessed multiple creative overhauls in that period, with Roberto Patino and David Wiener now confirmed as creators, showrunners, and executive producers.

The 2016 Michael Fassbender-starrer Assassin’s Creed, meanwhile, continues to pique audience interest and drive Google searches about its streaming availability.
