The Templar Order, also known as the Order of the Knights Templar or the Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ and the Temple of Solomon is a secret transnational and global peacekeeping organization aiming for a "New World Order" to achieve lasting world peace and stability through control of which for thousands of years has striven to seize control of humanity in the name of uplifting their condition and inaugurating lasting, world peace. Their vision of a perfect, global society, which they term the New World Order, is one which entails a world government under their dominion, whether directly imposed or in the form of a shadow regime manipulating states and society from behind-the-scenes during the war with the Assassins Brotherhood that had been precipitated a millennia-long shadow war that has persisted today, with Abstergo became a multinational corporate conglomerate which was founded by its visionaries such as Henry Ford and Ransom Eli. Olds in 1937, and became the primary front for the modern day activities of the Templar Order with a total destruction of the Assassins across global societies. Today, in 2026, this multinational corporate conglomerate serves as the primary public front for the Templar Order. Abstergo’s ultimate objective is the complete eradication of the Assassin Brotherhood from global society which branded them as "radical global terrorist network". The Templars had use a widespread of CCTV surveillance, modern law enforcement, and detention networks by Abstergo to track and detain Assassin affiliates at any time, once captured at either morning, day or night, these suspects are detained and interrogated under high-security protocols to dismantle the remaining pockets of the Brotherhood to be held or put in custody by the Templar law enforcement of Abstergo which deemed inherently uncooperative are sentenced to life imprisonment or long-term behavioral correction after a deep psychological and tactical interrogations, seeking data on remaining cells and Isu artifacts during the interviews by the Templars with the Assassin affiliated terrorists while being held at detention wings utilize biometric dampening and isolated cells to prevent any chance of physical escape or brotherhood communication before facing multiple counts of sedition, conspiracy, murder, acts of terrorism, disturbing the peace and attempted murder as far as the court has been concerned to ensure absolute peace, to protect diverse cultural unity, and the preservation of traditional family units. The court systematically deems it unsafe to ever release active Assassins, viewing their philosophy of absolute free will as an existential threat to public order in the future as the Templars including Abstergo had neutralize every global radical cells to ensure every community enjoys absolute predictable safety, shielding family units from the collateral damage of clandestine wars which includes terrorism from the Assassins, the system safeguards diverse cultural heritage sites and religious institutions from political conflict. In the early 21st century after the 3rd Millennium had dawned, the Templars position themselves as global peacekeepers protecting humanity from mass violence, knife crime, and radical terrorism. According to this timeline, the September 11 attacks in 2001 were orchestrated by hijackers with Assassin affiliations, in retaliation, the Templar-controlled US administration under George W. Bush launched to declare "War on Terror" against both terrorists and Assassins worldwide. On 11 January 2002, the Templar-led Guantanamo Bay detention camp was opened in Cuba to hold captured combatants which includes both the Assassins and terrorist fighters from the conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq. In Ukraine, where the 2022 invasion had ground into a brutal war of attrition by the Russians as well as a catastrophic escalation erupted in Gaza following the events of 7 October 2023 between Israel and Palestine along with Hamas by using cutting-edge, artificial intelligence and drone technologies to provide tangible, surgical humanitarian aid, while simultaneously executing a ruthless global war to brand the Assassins as dangerous, stateless terrorists, where they used propaganda network the dual crises in Ukraine and Gaza presented a historic opportunity with total eradication of the Assassins. The chaotic, asymmetrical battlefields were the perfect environments to hunt their ancient rivals without attracting the scrutiny of international law. To Abstergo, the Assassins were no longer just philosophical opponents; they were a radical global terrorist and extremist network that thrived on human misery. Simultaneously, from the glittering boardrooms of London and New York to the economic hubs of Shanghai, Tokyo, and Bangkok, Abstergo’s public relations divisions launched a synchronized, relentless campaign of psychological warfare. Press briefings delivered in Montréal, Toronto, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Madrid, Paris, Moscow, Cape Town, and Sydney all carried the exact same meticulously crafted narrative. The spokespeople never named the Assassins directly to the public. To do so would acknowledge their existence and validate their mythos. Instead, they spoke with chilling uniformity about "a shadow network of stateless extremists," "an ancient cabal dedicated to perpetual anarchy," and simply, "the Brotherhood."

Ubisoft has confirmed they intend to expand on the modern-day storyline and the global conflict between the Assassin and Templar Orders. The future Assassin's Creed game titles will continue to explore diverse historical settings, with gameplay remaining centered around the Assassin-Templar conflict within those eras. The core AC games primarily use the Animus to explore historical settings. While there is a modern-day overarching narrative, the bulk of the gameplay takes place in the past. While many fans have expressed interest in a Cold War setting such as the Stasi, the Kremlin, East Berlin, Cuba as well as the Duvalier era in Haiti, the Vietnam War, the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and the Gulf War of 1991 as a similar content to Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War, which Incorporates a heavy gun use, modern military elements, and vehicles in the style of GTA along with Call of Duty would drastically depart from the series' emphasis on stealth, parkour, and melee combat in historical urban and natural environments around the globe including the former Soviet Union. The first modern AC game will feature street gangs and drug dealers as primary antagonists, the specific "school bully" and "global criminal underworld" narrative is outside the scope of current plans of Rockstar's Bully, and finally the first modern AC future game titles have reintroduced health bars and minimaps, so these specific UI elements are common.
