New Assassins Creed Trailer Shows off the Games new Engine

Assassins Creed III looks absolutely stunning. What also makes it stand out from it's predecessors is that the game will have dynamic weather changes that will affect how Connor move throughout the environment and can either help or hinder him. And Ubisoft wanted to showcase and talk about their brand new game engine known as Anvilnext.



The trailer also reveals that Connor will not only be killing Redcoats, but American revolutionaries as well. Our new protagonist shows that he doesn't care if You're British or American, he's only out for you if you're a Templar.

Ubisoft Being Sued, Assassin's Creed III Could Be Cancelled

Ubisoft and Assassin's Creed III might be in a heap of trouble as Ubisoft is being sued for for taking ideas from the book "Link" written by author John Beiswenger.

Earlier this week Beiswenger files a complain complaining that Ubisoft has stolen ideas for the Assassin's Creed universe from his book. In Link, the story is based around a "device and process whereby ancestral memories can be accessed, recalled, relived, and re-experienced by the user." (Just like Assassin's Creed's Animus device.). The similarities don't end there though, the book has assassinations and historical events in which the user experiences due to what the ancestor has been through.

If this does go through and the judge does agree that this is in fact copyright infringement, then Beiswenger might be getting up to $5.25 million in damages and if the judge rules that Ubisoft knew that they knew about Link prior to the concept of Assassin's Creed then Ubisoft will be forced to halt any Assassin's Creed products, including Assassin's Creed III.

Assassin's Creed III Wii U Details

Assassin's Creed III will be released for Wii U, but how will the game take advantage of the console's unique features? Yesterday Ubisoft released some information about what players can expect to see in the Wii U version of the game.

• Wii U tablet controller can act as some form of link to the Assassin’s Creed “Animus”
• Wii U tablet Animus can be used as a persistent on-screen map and navigation tool.
• Animus Database entries that may pop up from time to time, could be displayed on the touchscreen instead and not interrupt the flow of the game.
• The Animus can also act as an encyclopedia of information. Character biographies and bits of information that  would normally be cast aside could be displayed on the touchscreen (take a break and read up on the side story & character history while eating dinner?).
• Easy touchscreen weapon selection during combat. Quick change from dual-wield combat to single with a simple touch.
• Using the touchscreen as an alternate view for Eagle Vision. Using the built-in accelerometer to control the camera view while in Eagle Vision.

We all know that Desmond will play a huge role in the final installment of the series, however the biggest part of Assassin's Creed was always experiencing ancient times. A new image has been sent to Kotaku of the possible Assassin for the next game. Take a look.


If it's true, then the next game will be taking place in the American Revolution, almost three-hundred years after Ezio's period. However I definitely welcome this new Assassin, his design is great and shows a lot of how he's going to play from his, tomahawk, bow and arrow, and even that pistol hes wielding.

Assassin's Creed III Confirmed for 2012

While it seemed pretty obvious Ubisoft had planned to release another Assassin's Creed Game to fit their 2012 "End of the World" story this year, but their confirmation of the new title may surprise you.



While the publisher only confirmed that the game be released October 30th 2012, Ubisoft's CEO Yves Guillermot had some more to say about the game.

"We will push the title a lot because it's a fantastic product that the team has been working for three years, what we have seen is just fabulous."

Three Years in development. While I've really enjoyed Brotherhood and Revelations it always worried me that this would mean no time for proper development for "III", just adding some new tweaks like they did the other two rather than making a whole new experience. However this kind of news was a real sigh of relief, even though I've always had faith in Ubisoft. So you heard it, Assassin's Creed III will be out on October 30th this year. Can't wait to play it.
