2011 Games To Watch #4: Assassin's Creed

Okay, so this is rather a leap of faith on my part (fans, forgive the pun) as we know absolutely nothing about Assassin's Creed III other than that it's coming this year, and will feature a new assassin in a new era. Desmond? I think not- at the end of Brotherhood (10/10) we heard voices as the protagonist of the modern sections was strapped back into the Animus having just been forced to kill ally Lucy in front of the rest of his team by supposedly omniscient spirits, so it's more than likely to take place closer to present day than the first three games. Whatever the timeframe, I'm confident that AC3 will retain the classic game-play that brought Assassin's Creed 2 (9.5/10) and Brotherhood out of the depths plunged into by the original (5.5/10), plus hopefully upgrading the multi-player modes that quickly became repetitive after the innovative experience of the campaign in the latest title. Keep checking back at On-Screen for more info as it comes on Assassin's Creed III this year as it is definitely one game you'll want to watch in 2011!
