Assassins Creed II: Discover Headed to DS, Utilizes DSi Camera
November 17th is going to come sooner than you think, and you’re going to find yourself attached to the couch playing Assassin’s Creed II on whatever console you buy it for. Eventually, however, you’re going to have to rise form your comfortable seat and use the restroom, or eat, or something. That’s where the recently announced Assassin’s Creed II: Discovery for the Nintendo DS will come in handy.
When you’re walking around your house or you – heaven forbid – leave the house, you’ll be able to play as the white-cowled killer 2D-style. You can even take a photo of yourself with the Nintendo DSi’s camera and plaster your mug onto in-game wanted posters. It’s great to see that developer Griptonite Games is willing to take big risks with the DSi’s camera.
The DS version of the game joins the iPhone version of AC2: Discovery in holding down the handheld hitman front. The game releases the same day as the console versions of Assassin’s Creed II, so charge your DS battery now.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
