Thanks to [[User:Hewkii9|Hewkii9]], I was able to get my hands (metaphorically speaking) in the new issue of Playstation Magazine, and this month's edition has an exclusive six-page feature with lots of info, pictures and other things never seen before about [[AC: Brotherhood]].

Putting in bullet-points:
*The [[Monteriggioni|Villa Upgrades]] system will be back. Except it won't be just a villa, but a whole sprawling city.
*[[Rome]] will be 4 times larger than Venice was in ACII
*The new villain will be younger, stronger and as skillful as Ezio. Buuut the new villain isn't so new. He's a Borgia. Rodrigo's son. Cesare. Yep, [[Cesare Borgia]], the new baddie who is a darker version of our Auditore hero
*The game starts in [[1500]] with a 45-year-old Ezio
*[[Tiber Island]] will be the Rome Assassin's headquarters
*Altough the player won't be able to leave Rome, it is possible to send assassins to places all over the world, like [[Madrid]], [[Paris]] or [[Frankfurt]] (and I know that former examples were Europe-only)
*Recruits can be customized by players with weapons, armors and clothing; after acquiring experience points, the recruits can be upgraded with abilities
*It will be possible to choose an unknown number of assassins to act as personal sidekicks (possible 4)
*Machiavelli will be back, Rodrigo "Fat Pope" Borgia might be back, [[Leo Da Vinci]] will be less plot-important but will act as an tech/armorer go-to-guy (yep, he's definitely our "Q"), and Desmond "Why-no-one-tells-me-anything-let-me-out-of-the-bloody-Animus" Miles will be back, but instead of our ture hero and centerpiece, he'll probably be more secondary/supporter, only appearing later in the game
*Remember those rows of Animi (plural of Animus, the magazine confirmed it) in Abstergo Offices? That's the multiplayer system, an Abstergo-designed module for the Animus for training killers to chase Assassins and, well, kill.
*Five more characters have been named: the [[Nobleman]], the [[Courtesan]], the [[Doctor]], the [[Priest]] and the [[Executioner]]. Each characters has unique moves, clothes, animations and assassination styles. The Doctor kills with a poison-syringe, the priest with a knife, and so on. One other character who likes like Ezio (he uses a hood and a [[hidden blade]]) has been refered to as a "Prowler", but it's not known if it's his official designation.
*Multiplayer modes will have adversarial, team-based and objective focused structures. The one revealed, called "Wanted", sets 8 players in a sized map, and each one is assigned a target, and a killer. Like a cat-and-mouse game, but where cat chases mouse, then dog chases cat, then supermutant mouse chases dog, who chases cat, who chases mouse, who chases dog, who...
*[[Horses|Horsies!]] In the city! Also, horseback assassinations.
*The multiplayer character creation will be abilities and special weapons customizable (like "[[Disguise]]", "[[Morph]]" and the beloved [[Hidden Gun]]). In the magazine's words, similar to Rainbow Six Vegas 2 PEC system, where you created and stored your character with your account. If I may say so, that's a fantastic character customization feature.

In another note, the editors in PSN described the multiplayer experience as "cerebral, intense, exciting and kind of sexy". So read the last scanpage for the full test multiplayer report ;D

So, what you guys think? More excited now? ;D
