Assassins Creed Revelations stalking in November
Ubisofts murderous action adventure will conclude Ezios storyline on 360, PS3, PC this fall; E3 appearance a lock.
Its been seven days since Ubisoft began ramping up its teaser campaign for the fourth installment in its 28 million-unit-selling Assassins Creed franchise, and today came the payoff. This morning, the publisher officially announced Assassins Creed Revelations, saying the game will arrive for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC this November.
Calling it "the final chapter of the Ezio trilogy," Ubisoft said that Revelations will follow its Renaissance-era wetworks maestro, who was first introduced in Assassins Creed II. This time out, Ezio will visit the haunts of original Assassins Creed protagonist Altair, visiting such Middle East strongholds as the Ottoman Empires Constantinople. There, Ezio will once again take up arms against the Templar order.
In addition to its single-player storyline (which will also see the return of present-day protagonist Desmond), Revelations will retain the franchises multiplayer component, which was introduced with last years well-regarded Assassins Creed: Brotherhood. The publisher promises to update the online component with new modes, maps, and characters.
Ubisoft has pulled in a host of studios to bring Revelations to market. In addition to its flagship Montreal studio, Ubisofts France, Quebec, Singapore, and Romania outfits, as well as Massive Entertainment have been tapped to lend a hand on the project. The publisher expects to have the game on-hand for this years Electronic Entertainment Expo, where its press conference is scheduled for Monday.
