Speaking at a San Diego Comic Con panel, as reported by Joystiq, Assassin’s Creed III creative director Alex Hutchinson confirmed a rumour that the PC version won’t launch day-and-date alongside its console brethren. It looks like it won’t be a long wait though; Hutchison said the PC release will come “near” the console date of October 30 in the US and 31 in Europe – and certainly before Christmas.

Actor Willem Dafoe will not be lending his voice to Quantic Dreams’ Beyond: Two Souls as previously rumored. When asked about the rumor by Joystiq at Comic-Con today, David Cage shook his head and said: “Nice try.” During a panel on the title at the event, it was revealed actor Kadeem Hardison would be playing the paranormal investigator who raised Ellen Page’s character, Jodie Holmes. Actor Eric Winter is also involved in the title, but his character has not been disclosed.
