Assassin's Creed III

Although Ubisoft has not confirmed anything yet creative director Patrice Desiliets has said that there will be an Assassins Creed 3. This installment will see Desmond become the ultimate assassin.

 

"Assassins Creed is story of one man relieving the lives of his ancestors. Altair was the middle of a very very long timeline. There are still many places to explore"

“Assassins Creed has always been planned to be a trilogy, and Desmond is going back in time, using the Animus to eventually become the ultimate assassin.”

-Patrice Desiliets

 

At E3 2009 he exclaimed “I’m telling you. At the end of AC2 you’ll say‚ ‘Holy crap, I never saw it coming!’ There will be a cliffhanger. It’s cool to have a cliffhanger,” that leads into Assassin’s Creed 3. As for the writing on the wall Patrice says “It has nothing to do with Assassin’s Creed 2, it has to do with the Assassin’s Creed universe, not the second one.”

Do you think Desmond will be a good enough assassin to save the world by December 21st 2012?

More recently as Patrice was wrapping up production on Assassin’s Creed 2’s in September he mentions he’s looking forward to rounding out the trilogy.  “I have many different ideas. I’m not ready yet to exploit them. I think I have some juice left in me left to continue this. I’ve been doing Assassin’s Creed games for the past six years. It’s tough to be bored. I was a bit bored with the Turk crusade and the monk aspect, and everything, but in this there’s a brand new setting. And it’s my first sequel; I never did a sequel before, because I didn’t do any Prince of Persia sequels. I love the idea of refining your ideas, the gameplay and what you can do with it. So I’m not bored yet.”

I wonder what change of scenery we can expect in Assassin’s Creed 3? This game will most likely be released on or just before December 21st 2012.
