Gone are the sprawling cityscapes of previous Assassin Creed titles, replaced by the [[Frontier\|untamed lands]] of the New World.

	Set between 1753 and 1783, ~~Assassin’s~~ Creed III mines the events of the American Revolution, allowing gamers to participate in such historic events as the great [[New York\|New York fire]] and [[George Washington\|~~Washington’s~~]] battle at [[Valley Forge]]. There are historic figures from ~~America’s~~ first President to Ben Franklin, Lafayette, and Charles Lee. ~~You’ll~~ even see some parts of New England that still exist today.

	[[File:ACIII_Frontier_Iconic_SCREENSHOT.jpg\|thumb\|324px]]A 20-minute demo of AC3 shown at ~~Ubisoft’s~~ office focused on the wilderness Connor will traverse. The forest is 1 1/2 times the size of Rome in [[~~Assassin’s~~ Creed: Brotherhood]]. ~~That’s~~ an expansive playground to mess around in and offers a lot of new opportunities for killing enemies.

	The element of surprise appears even more prevalent than when stalking enemies across a crowded city in past games. Lurk in a branch above an approaching scout and can snatch them by the throat with your rope dart. Drop down to the ground and your victim lifts up, quickly hung and dead. When his allies find their friend strung up, they panic. You strike fast with a [[tomahawk]]. The rest fire wildly and then must desperately attempt to reload their muskets.

	In the previous ~~Assassin’s~~ Creed games, I felt like I was playing someone who was somewhat sophisticated in his tracking of targets through crowded cities. In AC3, Connor is a predator. From the scenes shown so far by Ubisoft, the killings are more visceral. This feels more like a hunter toying with prey than traditional ~~Assassin’s~~ combat. Even a more straight-forward mission on a battlefield ends with a new [[running assassination]]. Connor sprints straight at his target and attacks in an instant. ~~It’s~~ quite something.

	Of course, the bear is what really caught my eye. Combat with a bear ~~can’t~~ be the same as combat with a British soldier.

	You have to keep in mind that this is the first time Ubisoft is showing ~~Assassin’s~~ Creed.

This is just the tip of what we can expect from ~~Assassin’s~~ Creed III. If Ubisoft shows a bear fight right off the bat, then there is almost certainly far more still to be revealed about ~~Connor’s~~ life in the wild. The experience should have far more depth than the countryside roaming of Assassin ~~Creed’s~~ last hero, [[Ezio\|Ezio Firenze]].
