You’re not going to find any clues for the release date of the Wii U here, but you’ll be at least be comforted by the fact that when it launches, you can look forward to epic stabby deaths during the American Revolution on Nintendo’s new console. Also, PC gamers won’t have to wait out a whole season like they did with the previous games, as they can pick it up in November.
Today, Ubisoft announced that Assassin’s Creed® III for Windows PC will be available on November 20 in the United States.
Set against the backdrop of the American Revolution in the late 18th century, Assassin’s Creed III introduces a new hero, Ratohnhaké:ton, of Native American and English heritage. Adopting the name Connor, he becomes the new voice for justice in the ancient war between the Assassins and Templars. Players become an Assassin in the war for liberty against ruthless tyranny in the most stylized and fluid combat experiences in the franchise to date.
Assassin’s Creed III is set to release on October 31st for the PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and will be available for Wii U™ from Nintendo when the Wii U™ launches.
I don’t know about you, but this is my single most anticipated game this year. And it’s always nice when everyone gets a fair chance to pick it up without waiting six months after it first comes out.
I've been gaming since my dad made the bad decision of buying me a Nintendo when I was four years old. Every day I'd find myself with my face glued to a TV screen, punching away at buttons, getting furious with Bowser, Dr. Wily, and those freakin' birds in Ninja Gaiden. Since then I have failed to get my parents to play any board game with me, I sold my full copy of Earthbound with box and guide for $300 to some dude in Austria for rent money, and I still believe in Nintendo even after all these years.
