This is complete speculation on my part and I have no basis for it other then my own theory but they dodged the question like the "return of Kristen Bell" question prior to ACR... I remember watching an interview thing for the Hitman Absolution where Kyd confirmed he was still doing AC stuff but in the last few months he has been unlisted and avoided in topics related to the soundtrack.... Lorne Balfe is a great composer but I for one will miss Kyd from the game if he isn't in it. I mean, the trailer music was nice and all and the frontier gameplay music but tracks like the Venice Rooftops and Jerusalem are the ones we will remember and they were Kyd's work.
