The latest trailer for Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag takes the time to highlight the mode that always seems to take a backseat to the story campaign: multiplayer.
I've always felt that Assassin's Creed's multiplayer's fun is difficult to explain to someone without letting them play a few rounds. On paper is looks odd, maybe even boring, but in practice the multiplayer is intense fun, and radically different from the multiplayer shooter experiences most are familiar with. Hopefully Black Flag's multiplayer will be similarly enjoyable.
Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag is coming to PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii U, and PC on October 29. The PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions of the game will be available a few days before the next-gen console's launches on November 12 and 19 respectively.
