Press Release

Ubisoft's renowned Montreal Studio brings a brand new adventure to PLAYSTATION 3.

Some of gaming's most memorable moments have emerged from Ubisoft's Montreal Studio,
including Prince of Persia: Sands of Time and Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell. Now, harnessing
the power of PLAYSTATION 3 for the first time, this studio introduces a brand new saga to
the world - Assassin's Creed.

Set in 1191 AD during the Third Crusade, the game charts the actions of Altair, a member
of the Assassins. Shrouded in secrecy, these ruthless, nimble operatives intend to bring
an end to hostilities by suppressing both sides of the conflict.

Truly a next generation experience, Assassin's Creed features incredible freedom of
movement through amazingly portrayed medieval settlements. Decide how to achieve your
goal and go about it your own way as Altair's peerless command over his environment
allows for all kinds of approaches.

Sophisticated new technology allows for complex simulation of crowds; whether you
quietly blend in or make a market square descend into chaos is entirely down to you. Make
the most of Altair's abilities, including 'Eagle Vision', to take down your target - but
whatever you do, do it your way.

  Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell

The setting is 1191 AD. The Third Crusade is tearing the Holy Land apart. You, Altair, intend to stop the hostilities by suppressing both sides of the conflict.

You are an Assassin, a warrior shrouded in secrecy and feared for your ruthlessness. Your actions can throw your immediate environment into chaos, and your existence will shape events during this pivotal moment in history.

Eliminate your targets wherever, whenever, and however. Stalk your prey through richly detailed, historically accurate, open-ended environments. Scale buildings, mount horses, blend in with crowds. Do whatever it takes to achieve your objectives. * Relive the epic times of the Crusades

Assassin’s Creed immerses you in the realistic and historical Holy Land of the 12th century, featuring life-like graphics, ambience, and the subtle, yet detailed nuances of a living world. * Intense action rooted in reality
