The PS3 and Xbox 360 versions are slated for October with a date for the Wii U version TBD as well.

A video showing gameplay from Assassin’s Creed III has popped up on YouTube.

Screenshots for the multiplayer portion of Assassin’s Creed III have surfaced. At first glance, I thought the lady had a hook for a hand instead of just packing one around. On further examination, it looks like a more rustic version of the Hookblade, but if I were to add a real-world application to it – I’d say it’s exactly like the hook I use when dealing with hay bales. No matter- whatever it is, it looks painful. Game’s out in October.

“People on the internet suggest the most boring settings. The three most wanted are WWII, feudal Japan and Egypt. They’re kind of the three worst settings for an AC game. Writer Corey May really wants to do India. I would too. I’d really love to do the Raj.” – Assassin’s Creed 3 creative director Alex Hutchinson to OXM.

Creative director Alex Hutchinson has said the Assassin’s Creed III team “liked the idea of having a minority” as the lead character in the game, but don’t expect Connor Kenway to be stereotypical Hollywood brave like Tonto.
