Assassin's Creed III Debut Trailer

Ezio's story is over, this is a whole new ancestor for Desmond from the Revolutionary War in the 1770s.

There's definitely some Native American influence, he has a Tomahawk, but made with the Assassin's logo, and a bow and arrow. They've also said it won't be "colonials are good guys and brits are bad guys" there will be many shades of grey.

The Trailer

This is also a whole new engine, made by the team that did Assassin's Creed II.

I still haven't played Revelations. I guess that's next on my to-play list now. By Native American influence, do you mean the character himself? Because he definitely had those features.

Yes, his name apparently is Connor and he's half Indian. Mohawk Valley iN New York is apparently where "his tribe" is.

I'm not going to like killing redcoats

and it reminded me at just how absurd American propaganda is.

Anyway I would of betted on them using Egypt in AC3 what with Altair sending his books to Alexandria.

What's wrong with killing Redcoats?

AMUUUURRICAAA!!! FUCK YEAHHHH!!!

All honesty I have high hopes for this after the seemingly letdown of Revelations.

Legit this got me sooooooooooo excited - almost on par to seeing Smed tweet the pic of a vanguard over twitter for the first time for PS2!

I haven't played Assasin's Creed much but as a former Rev War reenactor I think I might pick this up.

I'm reading page scans of the new Game Informer for April... ohhhh y'all should check it out.

I'm calling it now: Connor is the one who starts the Revolutionary war with "the shot heard around the world" in Concord!
