Ubisoft Bundles Up Freedom For Assassin’s Creed The Americas Collection
Oh say can you see? Ubisoft is offering up a bundle of three Assassin’s Creed titles focused on life in (and around) colonial America.
Assassin’s Creed The Americas Collection includes Assassin’s Creed III, Assassin’s Creed Liberation HD, and Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag. The bundle will be available on October 28 (which you might recall is the pre-delay release date of Assassin’s Creed Unity - now arriving alongside Rogue on November 11).
We’ve inquired with Ubisoft about the bundle to find out if it will include the DLC for these titles. We’ll update should we receive a response.
Assassin’s Creed The Americas Collection will be released on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. No price has yet been announced.
Our Take
Until there is a price and a better understanding of the included content, it’s hard to assess the value against buying the included items separately. I suspect this will probably be a bargain for those that have yet to play these games, but you won’t be getting the best version of Black Flag. That honor belongs to the new-gen iterations.
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.
