New Ubisoft Games, Next Assassin's Creed to Feature Online Multiplayer
Ubisoft has just revealed it's lineup for the company's fiscal year of 2010-11 and boy is it looking good. New entries in some of Ubisoft's current franchises will be hitting shelves this year, like another Raving Rabids, Driver and Ghost Recon. Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands, R.U.S.E. and Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Conviction will also be released this year as well. Near the end of the statement, Ubisoft reveals that a new Assassin's Creed game will be coming and, here's the real surprise, will have online multiplayer. Ubisoft has also confirmed that this new Assassin's Creed will be a standalone game that includes a mutiplayer component and that it's not DLC for Assassin's Creed 2. He did, however, confirm that the game will feature AC2 protagonist Ezio de Auditorre in some way.
Personally I think it would be cool to run around on rooftops, assassinating people with my friends. There might also be some competitive modes which could also be fun if they implement it right. It's kind of wierd that they are making an entire stand alone expansion but there could be another great single player adventure in there as well so i guess we won't know until we get some more information.
Do you want an Assassin's Creed game with multiplayer? Or is the series good enough without one?
