What's Happening

Assassin's Creed III Coming In October

Ubisoft today confirmed when it will release Assassin's Creed III this fall.

The game will arrive on October 30, 2012, the publisher said. No other details were announced.

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

Ubisoft also said it shipped 7 million copies of Assassin's Creed Revelations so far through December 2011.

  • WHAT?! This was VERY surprising! I hope they don't release the game too soon and polish it. Anyway, this was REALLY unexpected.
  • Sweet, good to know!

  • Wishlist: - Go back to the Brotherhood graphics. The character models in Revelations were horrifying. - Make it lengthy. II length or GTFO. - Don't add stuff just to add it. Den Defense, Desmond Missions, bombs, just meaningless, unnecessary add ons.
  • Finally... a new assassin, a brand new story and hopefully, more and better answers than in Revelations.
  • Shocker...
  • Oh, how I hope they've actually been working on this for three years.
  • I don't know about you guys, but the thing that has me excited the most is that they've been working on it for 3 years. I enjoyed Brotherhood and Revelations, but even I'll admit that they were merely tweaks to the formula, and not refinements or upgrades. I still love this series, and I have high hopes for AC3. Also, I'm really excited about the fact that this one will most likely revolve around Desmond, and only Desmond. going into the Animus again after the events of Revelations makes no sense. Eager to see what they come up with.
  • Wow, three years. I hope they change it up, I'm getting tired of jumping into hay. Hopefully a new time period.
  • I want more bombs.

  • Am i the only one who thinks they pump AC out as fast as COD? Im not saying it is a bad series, but how fast they produce a sequel is ridiculous.
  • I hope people don't start bashing the series just for having a yearly release.
    I honestly don't see anything wrong with that as long as the games deliver. And they always have. Unlike something like say, COD. Which is the same recycled trash year after year. A slightly tweaked multiplayer and a 4 hour watered down campaign.
  • Assassins Creed- Meh Assassins Creed 2- Hey, not bad, pretty good actually! Assassins Creed Brotherhood- What, this again, only half as long and for the same price? Assassins Creed Revelations- Um, seriously, this again? Not a single thing added is even close to being good.
  • Whoa, didn't see this coming. Hopefully its good.

  • Really felling burned out on this series, haven't even finished Revelations yet.
  • I'll bet anything this is next month's cover story.
  • Is that why Revelations was so poor, because they just rushed it out?
  • GAH! I haven't even beaten AC: Brotherhood yet! Come on! This once a year thing is killing me!
  • Wow another one. I really need to get into this series, by the rate they are releasing games, I'll never catch up

  • I find it amusing how people say they did not see this coming considering Ubisoft said they were gonna release AC3 in 2012 since last year.
  • It is amazing how Ubi has crushed my interest in the Assassin's Creed franchise.
