Assassin’s Creed III – The Outsider Gameplay Trailer Now Available

Thanks to the ‘hard work’ of fans worldwide in the ‘Unite To Unlock‘ campaign, the full gameplay trailer is now available for all wannabe Assassins to check out! All your Facebook posts and tweets have finally toppled the mighty 1,776,000 shares that Ubisoft asked fans for, and in return we finally get to see Connor in action.

It’s certainly a sight to behold, and features over two minutes of stabby goodness from a pre-Alpha build. Running on the next version of the Anvil engine, check out the open landscapes and much larger sense of scale that this title is set to offer. Displaying hundreds of enemies on the screen at one time, the trailer showcases new gameplay mechanics including hunting and more natural movement through forest environments. A wide variety of gameplay scenarios and locations are also shown, including some spectacular urban environments where Connor is seen running through buildings to escape. A number of special assassination animations are also a sight to behold, so check it out in preparation for the game’s release this October.

The newest trailer for Assassin’s Creed III gives a deeper look at the franchise’s new hero. Trapped between two worlds, Connor dons the mantle of the Assassin in the fight for justice against the Templars. Sentinel, outsider, and champion, Connor defends the land against those who would infringe upon freedom and liberty.

Assassin’s Creed III is the opening chapter of two new stories: one of Connor, the newest Assassin, and one of a new nation, both in an epic fight for land and freedom. In this gameplay world premiere, travel through the early American city of Boston, battle man and beast alike as you explore the vast open frontier, and witness to the intensity and excitement of the Battle of Bunker Hill — one of the most famous battles of all time.

Assassin’s Creed III is set for release on October 30th (31st in Europe) for the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. A WiiU version is reportedly also in the works.
