Checking Out the New Assassin’s Creed 3 Interactive Trailer

Checking Out the New Assassin’s Creed 3 Interactive Trailer

Just a few hours ago, Ubisoft uploaded an interactive teaser trailer for the only-a-week-away Assassin’s Creed III.  Click here to get your Connor on and see a bit more of what to expect when it launches next Tuesday.  And if for some odd, personal reason, you simply don’t wish to click that link – well, here’s a trailer that was made for the trailer (a little redundant, I know…) Graphically and control-wise, there’s not much change to be noted from the past two Assassin’s Creed games; however, this far away from launch, after a barrage of trailers and commercials, pretty much everyone has already figured that tidbit out. However, the large battlefield scenario is a decent switchup, and a look at some of the new weapons in action, is worthy of some appreciation.  I’ve officially decided I’m going to (over and ab)use that rope dart until it’s dead; if it’s possible to go through the entire game using only that, well, now you know who’s going to do so.

In these new Assassin’s Creed III screenshots, we get some detailed looks at the snowy environments that game will be sporting. With its seasonal changes, it appears that there will be winter and summer versions of practically every area of the game, which is pretty impressive. Furthermore, we get to see Connor hunting down what appears to be a deadly Templar Deer. Or not. Either way, the textures look quite nice and we’ll have to see how Ubisoft’s claim of “next gen visuals today” holds up when we inevitably get to see some actual gameplay as E3 draws nearer.

Assassin’s Creed III Co-op?

In yet another serendipitous info leak, Microsoft has gone and posted some new info on their Marketplace feature listing for Assassin’s Creed III. Before the info was speedily removed, Microsoft listed online co-op and multiplayer features for the latest entry in the series. Whether you’ll be able to play through the campaign with friends or not is entirely unknown at this point. Heck it could be limited to some sort of crazy horde mode for all we know.  Also listed was 8 player multiplayer, most likely building off the sort of experiences we’ve been seeing in the previous two titles. For now, I’d classify all of this as a rumor, since the only real source on this is Microsoft. However, the possibilities are pretty damn exciting.

This last few days has seen a flood of new details for Ubisoft’s upcoming Assassin’s Creed III, most of them leaked from Game Informer’s huge cover story. I’m extremely excited for this latest entry in what has become one of my favorite series in all of gaming. The details that follow are pretty much all we know about the game thus far. Assassin’s Creed III will feature a variety of environments that have never been utilized in past installments, and all of them will present unique gameplay and traversal. For example, climbing in forests and jumping from tree to tree as you stalk your prey from above. The game runs on a new version of the Anvil engine, allowing for a far greater number of characters on screen at one time, all while looking better than ever before. Apparently they were going for a “Nex-gen” look on current console hardware and feel that they have come pretty close to that goal. The new protagonist is the son of a mixed British
