Assassin’s Creed Unity Experience Trailer
Ubisoft’s latest Assassin’s Creed trailer, Unity is an experience materially different from anything Ubisoft has designed before. A truly immersive experience revolutionized by new-gen technologies and a next-gen engine that brings characters alive like never before possible. Is it visceral? You bet it is. The empty buzzwords may fly fast and furious in Ubisoft’s new “experience trailer,” but they’re paired with five minutes of exciting footage from Unity and some cool glimpses of the Anvil engine powering Assassin’s Creed. The scale of digital Paris is especially impressive. I don’t know if Notre Dame is a triumph of digital architecture, but I definitely want to climb it. Check out a few screens from the video 🙂

Assassin’s Creed Unity with 4 women would have been awesome says former ASC game designer
Patrice Desilets, former Assassin’s Creed game designer quite firmly believes that Ubisoft should have invested the time and effort to give players the choice to play as a woman in Assassin’s Creed Unity, an aspect that Ubisoft opted out of due to “the reality of production.” At E3 this week, Unity creative director Alex Amancio told why the cooperative multiplayer game features four versions of protagonist Arno and why the developer excluded the option to play as a female assassin. “It’s double the animations, it’s double the voices, all that stuff and double the visual assets,” Amancio said. “Especially because we have customizable assassins.
