Assassin's Creed in November
The shroud hanging over Ubisoft's Crusades game will soon be lifted.
Even though Ubisoft has recently started to open up about Assassin's Creed there's still a sense that there's a lot more to the game than we're being shown. This shroud of secrecy will soon be lifted, as the company has revealed when the game will be in stores.
Ubisoft said on Thursday that Assassin's Creed will be out for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on 16 November in Europe.
Assassin's Creed is a new action game from the creators of Prince of Persia at Ubisoft's studio in Montreal. The game stars an assassin named Altair and takes place in 1191, during the Third Crusade.
Previous reports have suggested that the story could have a more contemporary component too, though Ubisoft has steered clear of that until now.
