Assassin's Creed III already has a location

Part 2 is not even out yet but according to Ubisoft Montreal CEO, Yannis Mallat, they already have a setting for Assassin's Creed III.

"Oh yeah," Mallat said when asked if they knew which parts of history the game will be in.

"We know how to keep secrets. Think about it, Assassin's Creed as a brand is definitely oriented towards reliving pivotal moments in history. So along that path we may revisit some interesting moments."

"And and ending for desmond?"

"Who talked about ending?" Mallat teased.

Pick up the game on November 17th 2009, that's one week after Modern Warfare 2 lands. Get the full vibe here.

Video Thirst: Leonardo Da Vinci is introduced in new Assassin's Creed video

Ubisoft is feeding gamers never-ending thirst for all things Assassin's Creed 2, and now we're introduced to Ezio's arms dealer Leonardo Da Vinci in this new but rather short clip.

This video details Ezio's weapons including his secret gun and dual blades.

The first installment sold over 8 million copies and Ubisoft has gone the extra mile to make sure that Assassin's Creed 2 is way more enjoyable than the first and at the moment, things are looking good. The game received many a praise when gameplay was shown at E3 09' and ever since, the hype train has be working.

Come November, Assassin's Creed 2 will be released on the the 17th day, that's one week after Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, leading many to voice their concerns about the game's release date, contending that it's too close to Activision's killer app. However Ubisoft is confident it'll perform well and said they are two totally different games appealing to different crowds, therefore sales won't be affected.

We agree 100% with Ubisoft, after all, all games can't be delayed because of Modern Warfare 2; different strokes for different folks.
