Bitmob - Assassin's Creed: Revelations' multiplayer has a story to tell

Bitmob - It's fair to call the multiplayer in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood inspired (possibly by the Assassin's Creed 2 iPhone game) and a worthy change of pace from standard-issue deathmatches, team deathmatches, and capture the flag modes. Under Dr. Vidic's acidic guidance, you trained to be a perfect killer in the Animus' virtual reality, both hunting and hunted by other Templar trainees. Ultimate safety lied in convincing observers you were just another A.I. bot wandering Rome's streets. The downside? Waiting forever to connect to a match.

I remember reading something about this but I hadn't actually seen any details on what this "story" would be about. Sounds pretty cool though, although if the story really isn't set in stone yet I wonder if they're just putting it there for the sake of it and not to actually forward part of the Templar story.

Assassin's Creed: Revelations is looking great so far.

-Mezzo-4721d ago

It's looking amazing, i am so pumped for it, According to me this is easily one of the best IP's of this Generation.

Along with, Uncharted, inFamous, Killzone, Gears, etc.

When will you decommission this new one? I’m only asking so I can be happier by not buying it at full price.

The dog Chorizo from FAR CRY 6 has wheelchair legs, so is hardly a decommissioned pet. In fact very useful for digging up dirt.

Historic Eras that Video Games Need to Explore

Xfire writes "Worldbuilding is a crucial part of any story. It's not an easy task to create a believable setting with its own set of rules, customs, traditions and political affiliations and then weave a story into the said setting. Luckily, storytellers and video game writers don't always need to create complex settings when we've got history books as thick as Big Chungus.

Historical eras make a fabulous setting for video games. They've already got the world-building nailed, complete with their own set of rules, customs, traditions and political affiliations. Honestly, I don't think I need to justify the fact that historical eras make an amazing setting for video games. If you don't believe me, just go ahead and play the Ghost of Tsushima or any of the Assassin's Creed games."

The first crusade would be pretty sweet. I’d probably enjoy any of those on your list if they were done respectfully. Like not some dork in Portland making a Russian Revolution game.

Benin Empire, Far East, Central America. Games are pretty biased toward Europe, North America, and the Middle East. There is a very big world out there.
