Ubisoft‘s Jean-Francois Boivin has revealed the first ever details about Assassin’s Creed III, the yet-to-be-announced title will feature a “new setting” and a “new hero”.
Assassin’s Creed’s Production Manager said that introducing a new character and setting to each numbered title in the franchise is “the way it works”.
“Yep, that’s the way we see our numbers,” said Boivin
“Assassin’s Creed III: new setting, new hero. That’s the way it works.
“We know what we’re doing; we’ve had a plan for a long time where this license is going to go.”
Assassin’s Creed III, of course, is not to be confused with 2010-2011’s Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood which, though being the third core game in the series, continues the story of Ezio, the assassin introduced in Assassin’s Creed II.
Previously Ubisoft Montreal indicated that Assassin’s Creed will return with a new game next year, and you know now. The next is Assassin’s Creed III in 2012
Assassin’s Creed Revelations launches November 15th, 2011 for the PS3, Xbox 360 and 2nd December 2011 for PC.
