Assassin's News- New Dev Diary, Desmond Teased

More details and footage of ACIII land in the run-up to release!
We've got just over a month now until Assassin's Creed III releases in video game retailers everywhere, and as such Ubisoft Montreal are ramping up their advertising campaign for the exhilarating finale to the trilogy of main franchise instalments. Below, you can catch a great developer diary video that showcases new footage from the title as well as how the project had its inception at Ubisoft right after Assassin's Creed II arrived in 2009. Yep, while smaller teams worked on Brotherhood and Revelations, all the work has really gone into this one! Edge Magazine have also got a couple of brief new details on the Desmond portion of the new title's storyline.

"The story of Assassin's Creed, AC II, Brotherhood and Revelations was to build Desmond up. So we've built this guy up," says Alex Hutchinson, "And I really believe that we can pay that off, and in retrospect he'll be terrific. I don't think anyone really like Luke [Skywalker] in A New Hope, but by the end of his arc, this journey that he goes through making him amazing. Mechanically speaking, Desmond is going to be doing a lot more in this game!" All the signs seem to be pointing in a very positive direction for this big finale- now all that remains to be seen is whether it all pays off...Assassin's Creed III launches on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 from October 31st.
