Play as a new character with Assassin's Creed IV season pass

An Assassin's Creed IV season pass will let buyers play as Adewale, a new assassin who serves as first mate to main protagonist Edward Kenway in the upcoming seafaring adventure. While publisher Ubisoft has yet to officially announce the season pass, it was spotted for purchase on Best Buy by AGB.

According to the product description, the season pass includes all planned DLC packs for $19.99, representing a $20 saving off the regular price. DLC will come in the form of extra single-player missions, multiplayer content and “new ways to personalise your pirate experience”.

Ubisoft has also released a new version of the Assassin’s Creed IV E3 gameplay demo featuring commentary from game director Ashraf Ismail, which you can watch below. In a recent interview with ElderGeek, Ismail confirmed the Assassin’s Creed IV release date of October 29 in the US and November 1 in the UK on current-gen consoles, noted that the PC release is expected "a few weeks after", and said the game will be available as a launch title for Xbox One and PS4.

Assassin's Creed 3 "Outsider" trailer delivers best in-game footage yet

This new trailer is the most incredible one we've seen yet in the hype campaign for Assassin's Creed 3, featuring huge battles, woodland creeping, and oh yeah bear fights!

http://www.gamesradar.com/assassins-creed-3-outsider-trailer/

So far this game is looking to be miles beyond anything we saw in Assassin's Creed 2 or its sequels/expansions Brotherhood and Revelations.

Assassin's Creed 3 gets dirty with Ben Franklin

In an interview with Penny Arcade Report, Alex Hutchinson, creative director on Assassin's Creed III discussed some of the challenges of designing the game. He began by explaining how hard it is to stay true to real people in the AC series.

He said they always try to make sure the people who are assassinated were...actually killed. He says the goal is to make sure they are real people who die in AC at the same place/time as they did in real life.

This branched off into a conversation about portraying Benjamin Franklin realistically, which is rare in most media. While he's often portrayed as an upstanding paladin of American values, he was also kind of a horn dog.

“We went with the more unusual sides of him. Like his love of women,” Hutchinson explained. “He said that women dry out, but they dry out from the top down, and therefore the bits that you need never dry out. I know we’re going to get [complaints], but this is all public record.”

Penny Arcade took the liberty of looking up Franklin's actual quote, and here it is to scar you forever: "Because in every Animal that walks upright, the Deficiency of the Fluids that fill the Muscles appears first in the highest Part: The Face first grows lank and wrinkled; then the Neck; then the Breast and Arms; the lower Parts continuing to the last as plump as ever: So that covering all above with a Basket, and regarding only what is below the Girdle, it is impossible of two Women to know an old from a young one. And as in the dark all Cats are grey, the Pleasure of corporal Enjoyment with an old Woman is at least equal, and frequently superior, every Knack being by Practice capable of Improvement.”

Assassin's Creed III - New screens leak out of PAX East

Fresh from PAX (via Gamefreaks), here's some new shots from Assassin's Creed III. From the look of the newly-glimpsed HUD, these shots offer your first decent-sized look at the sequel's in-game action. They depict new hero Connor exploring the New World, sneaking about behind some improbably-convenient battlefield cover, and eavesdropping on what we're sure is a very emotional battlefield speech about freedom and honor and so forth.

While your initial glimpses of ACIII have been all Connor, all the time, Ubisoft's said Assassin's Creed III will be Desmond's biggest role yet as well. You can catch up with other early AssCreedIII facts, including an interview with creative director Alex Hutchinson, in our recently-posted preview, Assassin’s Creed III – First look at the Revolution through Connor’s eyes.

Assassin's Creed III will be Desmond's biggest role

AppId is over the quota
AppId is over the quota

Connor may be the face of Assassin's Creed III, but it could be series regular Desmond that winds up stealing the show. Speaking to the rookie assassin's role in Ubisoft's upcoming sequel, writer Matt Turner told CVG that fans will spend more time outside of the Animus than usual, hinting, "All I can say about Desmond's story is you're going to experience more Desmond than you've ever had before. We're spending more time on the present than we have in past games.”

Turner was careful not to spoil any details regarding Desmond's arc, but added the character will be crucial the game's plot, adding, "It's a big part of our story and I don't really want to give too many details away because I want people to experience what that is. But rest assured, you're going to see a lot of Desmond. More so than in any past game."

Considering the entire Assassin's Creed series has been building up to a major in-game event scheduled for 2012, it make sense that the assassin living in that era would receive major screen time. The big question is where Ubisoft will take the series beyond “the big event”, and if Desmond will live to see another sequel. Our prediction (based on absolutely nothing) is that the ending of Assassin's Creed III will see players awakening from a future Animus after reliving Desmond's final moments. Apologies if we just blew your mind.

Assassin's Creed III arrives for PS3, Xbox 360, and PC on October 30 in North America, and October 31 in the UK. Get a jump on your targets with our preview, Assassin’s Creed III – First look at the Revolution through Connor’s eyes.
