Assassins’ Creed: Revelations is out today in the US, and those who activate the Uplay Passport code included with the title, will be granted access to the exclusive online multiplayer character Vali cel Tradat. Also known as the Sentinel, he is a “Wallachian noble by birth and a former Assassin.” Neat. Also, the passcode unlocks the game’s multiplayer which includes the following modes: Wanted, Artifact Assault, Manhunt, Deathmatch, Corruption, Steal The Artifact, Assassinate, Chest Capture and Training Ground.

Those who purchase the title used will have to buy the code separately, and will miss out on the Sentinel when they buy the code separately. Thanks, Eurogamer.

“They want to be able to pull the plug on the whole movie’s development if they decide to. It’s ridiculous.”

“As a director, even Steven Spielberg cannot get this kind of deal.”

Speaking to NY Mag, anonymous studio executives and insiders express doubts over Ubisoft’s insistence on creative control.
