The segment with Altair is clearly before the assassin spent that year studying abroad in America, as he hasn’t picked up the accent yet.
Anyways, check out this Gamescom demo from Assassin’s Creed: Revelations, which features brief segments for two of the game’s playable characters: Ezio Auditore and Altair Ibn La’Ahad. Some cool info on what’s particular to this franchise iteration, such as the ability to craft various types of bombs from materials you find in the world. Looks promising. Plus, I’m a big fan of throwing a grenade into the face of a man carrying a sword.
It just seems inappropriately appropriate.
Assassin’s Creed: Revelations is slated for release on Nov. 15 for the PS3, Xbox 360 and PC.
