Assassin’s Creed Unity : Time Anomalies Trailer
Just when you couldn’t get any more excited about Unity, Ubisoft decide to pull this off! The latest Assassin’s Creed Unity trailer shows Arno smack dab in the middle of the World War II, with machine guns and everything. The trailer shows some sort of spacetime disturbance which transports Arno right into the Second World War. You’ll find yourself in the middle of a gun fight and running for cover around the iron bars of the Eiffel Tower A survey taken late last year showed that Assassin’s Creed was toying with the idea of allowing players to explore a city in another era. No trailer or any sort of footage gave us any hints that this was going to happen, and I think I like that they didn’t. Man I love surprises!

Far Cry 4 Co-Op Gameplay
We now have some footage for Ubisoft’s upcoming open-world action game, Far Cry 4. PlayStation Access posted a ten-minute gameplay video of the game’s co-op mode on PS4. If you have played Far Cry 3 then you’ll remember that it had a co-op mode, but it was quite restricted compared to Far Cry 4’s, which on the other hand gives you access to the entire game world, rather than of smaller sub-sections. The video showcases all the different types of game mechanics which include swimming, shooting, driving, flying and elephant riding. Thankfully Far Cry 4 supports co-op on all platforms, but PlayStation users are into for a special treat.

Ubisoft has confirmed to IGN that Assassin’s Creed Rogue is coming to PC in “early 2015.” Ubisoft also explained that Rogue is coming later than its console release date.
