A new leaked image coming from inside publisher Ubisoft suggests that the company is working on a new Assassin's Creed game called Rising Phoenix, although no clear information about it is offered at the moment.

The image is clearly intended to be used inside the company and was first leaked on a fan site, which has taken it down, but not before it was posted in other locations.

Speculation among Assassin's Creed fans suggests that Rising Phoenix might be a PlayStation Vita title that will accompany the launch of Black Flag in the fall.

The game seems to be linked to a near-future setting, and it might also be an effort to move Assassin's Creed into the social space.

Presumably, following the leak, Ubisoft will offer an official announcement about Assassin's Creed Rising Phoenix in the coming days.
