Assassin’s Creed III is the fifth major installment in the Assassin’s Creed series and the third numbered title in the series.

According to Ubisoft, Assassin’s Creed III is to become the most pre-ordered title in the company’s history in North America. The game has been available to pre-order in the US for three weeks, and is tracking ahead of any other game in the Assassin’s Creed series.

“On October 30th players will experience the biggest game launch in Ubisoft’s history with the highly anticipated release of Assassins Creed III,” said Tony Key, senior vice president of sales and marketing, Ubisoft.

“With a development cycle of three years, Assassins Creed III is the true next-generation experience of the Assassins Creed brand. The production value of the game, combined with the biggest marketing commitment we’ve ever made, will make Assassins Creed III the highest-selling Assassin’s Creed game ever. Additionally, the new setting and hero makes this the perfect time to jump into the series for anyone that has not previously played an Assassin’s Creed game.”

Additionally, the game has reached Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood’s life-to-date U.S. pre-order total. Assassin’s Creed III is on track to match the life-to-date U.S. pre-order figures for Ubisoft’s previously most pre-ordered game, Assassin’s Creed Revelations, by E3.

Previously, Ubisoft announced collector’s edition for Assassin’s Creed III.
