Assassin’s Creed 3 has been the talk of the town at E3. We’ve had demos, screenshots and press conferences
from the upcoming American Revolution sneak-and-slaughter title, but
details on its multiplayer component have been few and far between.
Until now.
Three new screenshots have just been released by Ubisoft, and CVG have
a little inside knowledge
on the multiplayer. As well as a four versus four
king-of-the-hill-style Domination mode, there are environmental kills,
which mean you can topple trees on your opponents to squish them. There
are also three confirmed characters: The Commander, The Carpenter and
The Lady Maverick. Who we’re going to assume feature in these
screenshots.
The Lady Maverick
Short sleeves and split skirts can’t be all that becoming to freezing
conditions, but hey, she’s The Lady Maverick and she can do as she damn
well pleases. Even if it involves hypothermia. No sign of her face, but
she does seem to have a rather large and crooked nose which juts out to
the side of her face. Or that could just be hair.
The Carpenter
We’re assuming this is The Carpenter because he has the large rugged
hands that go with being a woodsmith. He also hates the cultural
phenomenon of Steampunk. “History was interesting enough without you
having to glue some cogs to it you idiot!” he yells as he biffs the man
in his face with his mighty mallet.
The Commander
Here The Commander is under attack from a flying Native American
warrior. The Commander secretly wishes he could fly, hence his
incredulous expression. The Carpenter doesn’t really care what happens
to The Commander, as in the pub last night The Commander told him that
his pincers looked a bit flat.
