Assassins Creed 3 More Desmond-Centric Than Ever

Assassins Creed 3 Lead Writer Matt Turner recently told CVG that the upcoming Ubisoft title will feature more Desmond than previous Assassins Creed installations.

“All I can say about Desmond’s story is you’re going to experience more Desmond than you’ve ever had before,” Turner said. “We’re spending more time on the present than we have in past games.”

Ubisoft has been quiet on the status of Desmond in AC3, mainly focusing on the reveal of the Revolutionary War protagonist Connor Kenway. Turner promised that in addition to more Desmond sequences, there will be more present-day events and connections compared to other AC games.

Assassin’s Creed 3 is scheduled to launch on October 30th, 2012 — stay tuned to Broken Joysticks as we’ll bring you more on the game as it’s announced.
