Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines Announced for Sony PSP

AssassinsCreedX.com — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 03:25:38 PDT

The latest addition to the Assassin’s Creed series has been officially announced; Assassin’s Creed Bloodlines for the PSP sees the return of Altair in a brand new adventure. Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines is said to take place between the events of the original Assassin’s Creed and Assassin’s Creed II, and will have Altair taking up new missions in Cyprus.

And, according to IGN’s The Fix show, Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines will feature a unique unlock system whereby certain items that you acquire during that game can be transferred to the PS3 version of Assassin’s Creed II. No word as yet how that will play out but the idea of being rewarding with unique, exclusive items will no doubt encourage users to pick the PS3 version of ACII over the 360 version. Perhaps Xbox 360 owners will be able to download these unique items via special Xbox Live Marketplace codes in future? Who knows.

Be sure to check out the new Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines trailer on IGN, too!

Assassin’s Creed Teaser Site Launched

Dark Drakan — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 03:02:16 PDT

Ubisoft have launched a new teaser site for the highly anticipated sequel to Assassins Creed. The site contains many easter eggs and hints for Assassins Creed 2. You can unlock some hidden 3D render of Altairs hidden blade by printing the symbol in the pdf. file and scanning it with a webcam. Or in my case i just pointed my webcam at the monitor and it scanned the symbol and unlocked the artwork. Im sure more symbols will appear on the site to scan for more secret unlocks soon. Can also expect some info in Game Informer on 4/16/09 (as the backwards text reads).

According to reports, Ubisoft has been showing select members of the public a trailer for Assassin’s Creed 2 in what seems like some form of market research campaign. Here are the descriptions of one such lucky person who contacted Destructoid after having seen the trailer.

Whilst wondering around town today during my lunch break i noticed a Ubisoft booth. people were asking questionnaires about games. I thought hey, I’m a gamer, a pretty hardcore one i think il give this a go. so i did; Questionnaire wasn’t too exciting to be fair, it was what happened afterwards that was. I was brought into a room with a TV set up and this is what followed…

Assassins Creed 2 Confirmed

Dark Drakan — Thu, 27 Nov 2008 07:34:09 PST

Ubisoft have at last confirmed that they are ‘hard at work’ on the sequel to the award winning Assassins Creed. The first details came some time ago when the Prince Of Persia team let slip that Altair would be able to swim in the sequel (which can be read here). However Ubisoft have now come out and confirmed during its first-half fiscal 2008-09 conference call that they are hard at work on the sequel. Also analyst Michael Pachter says has changed time frame from 1191 to “several hundred years in the future”, specifically, “sometime in the 1700s. Pachter went on to speculate that the French Revolution could be a potential setting for the sequel, which is infinitely more compelling to us than just more Jerusalem.
