Rumor: ‘ASSASSIN’S CREED III’ Takes Place During American Revolution, Stars Native American.

Through a variety of leaky-leaks from Best Buy, Kotaku them thinks they got themselves a look at the main character from Assassin’s Creed III. Holy fucking America, fuck yeah! is all I can say.

Hit the jump to check him out.

Kotaku:

Well, this is interesting. A Best Buy worker just emailed us two images snapped from their employee news section. One shows that Ubisoft will be unveiling  Assassin’s Creed IIIon March 5, and that there’ll be pre-order bonuses to be had. Whatever.

The other is a shot of what they say is the game’s promotional art. Featuring what may well beAssassin’s Creed III’s  star.

If this is legitimate, and remember, this is completely unconfirmed, it appears that  the chatter placing the third game in the series in the American Revolution is spot-on. In the background is the original Continental flag, the Assassin is wearing an 18th-century military jacket and from his weaponry, jewellery and resemblance to actor Wes Studi he appears to be Native American. Or, since you’d expect he’s still part of hero Desmond’s bloodline, half-Native American.
