Assassin's Creed: Rogue
Yeah, they're now making two major console games a year.
FFS Ubisoft, WTF.
Link to pictures and more info
* Set in 1751. Settings include New York, a section of the Great Appalachian Valley, and a frozen North Atlantic ocean.
* Shaw Cormac is the playable character, a former Assassin turned Templar (w00t) who now hunts Assassins for his revenge as he was betrayed by the Brotherhood.
* Shaw will have to defend himself from Assassin attacks, and they could be hiding anywhere.
* Shaw's ship is called the Morrigan, and it will be able to rip through Ice-bergs and Ice-sheets.
* Naval combat is based on Black Flag's, with some additions. Chief among these is the enemy's ability to try and board the Morrigan.
I'm liking the badass cover, and the logo.
Seriously hoping controlled descent is available, but it prolly won't be, given that this game is supposed to be the third chapter in the North American saga (III & IV: BF).
