Assassin’s Creed 2is looking pretty nice. While the idea ofAssassin’s Do These Same Tedious Missions Over And Over Again Creedgetting a sequel didn’t originally thrill me, I have to say,the footageof Ezio Firenze gliding around on Leonardo da Vinci’s flying machine started to warm me up to the idea. The double face stab didn’t hurt either.
ButAssassin’s Creed 2isn’t going to be out until this November, which means that there’s still quite a while until we see how it turns out. Ubisoft must be pretty confident about its reception, though, since they’ve already gone and confirmed that anAssassin’s Creed 3is pretty likely to be on the way.
When askedduring a video interviewat E3, associate producer Vincent Pontbriand assured that Ubisoft is “of course” thinking about the sequel’s sequel. No specific setting has apparently been pinned down, but Pontbriand stated that it would need to be at a “pivotal moment in history.” Though it can’t take place before the events in the original game, apparently.
He also says that there “are plans” forAssassin’s Creed 2DLC, but was unable to go into any detail.
So does this news actually surprise anyone? Both events seemed pretty likely, given that the firstAssassin’s Creedsold quite well.
