Assassin's Creed III Is Looking Good
May 10, 2012
Ubisoft has unveiled a nifty new trailer for the upcoming Assassin's Creed III for the Sony PlayStation, Microsoft Xbox 360, and other platforms that shows plenty of the game in action. Watch as Assassin protagonist Connor soliloquizes about the nature of being an outsider, thirsts for liberty, lashes out at the hated British, deals with a bear, runs through someone's house in what I'm choosing to believe is a fun nod to Ferris Bueller's Day Off, scampers across tree branches, and performs many more action-packed stunts. The disclaimer at the start of the trailer warns that this is all pre-alpha footage (so we're supposed to make the assumption that for as awesome as this all is, the finished product will be orders of magnitude better), but I like what I see of this so far. All that's missing is the scene where Connor returns to his home one evening to find Nick Fury waiting to tell him about the Avengers Initiative. Assassin's Creed III is due out on October 30.
