Ubisoft, coming off the leaked screenshots of Assassin’s Creed Unity has released a brand new Assassin’s Creed Unity Alpha trailer. The trailer shows the first official next generation of Assassin’s Creed and gives us a little insight into what the new title will be about. From the looks of of the trailer the rumors that Assassin’s Creed Unity will take place in France pre-revolution looks to be quite reliable. At the end of the trailer you can see the iconic guillotine crashing down that was used during the time period as an execution device.

Another interesting note to pull out of the announcement trailer is that it seems that this next-gen version of the game has been in development for quite some time. In the announcement notes Ubisoft says that the game has been in development for 3 years. The most interesting thing about the trailer, however, is that it seems to be forced out specifically from the Neogaf leaks. In the release of the trailer Ubisoft blatently states the reason the trailers origins.

What does this mean for the Assassin’s Creed story after 4? Is this just another time piece that the team at the fictional Ubisoft and Abstergo Entertainment is working on? Assassin’s Creed Unity will be rolling heads this holiday season and more news will be released in the upcoming months leading up to release.

According to several insider sources of Kotaku, the Assassin’s Creed franchise is getting not one but two different titles this year. The first game is called Unity. Several images about it were leaked by someone, who prefers to stay anonymous. The pictures show what looks like pre-revolutionary Paris, together with Notre Dame, the Seine, etc. While the building models already look really good, character detail, shadows and several textures indicate, that it’s still an early version of the game.

The second title is code-named ‘Comet’. Now there comes the strange part: While Unity will be released for current gen’s PS4 and Xbox ONE, Comet is supposedly being released for PS3 and Xbox 360. According to Kotaku, presumably one or both will get a PC release as well. There were no mentions of a WiiU port.

In Unity you will play as Arno. How he intertwines with the current story, we don’t know. Locations outside Paris? Everything could be possible: The temperate landscape of Île-de-France with it’s luscious buildings or only Paris, the most populous European city at the time. Story? Hell, maybe you’ll guillotine Louis XVI. yourself. Even less is known about Comet.

It’s mostly just assumptions at the moment and the more you assume, the more you’ll be disappointed. So patiently wait until Ubisoft makes their announcements. However, the AC franchise is milked dry as it is and another two games within a year could permanently total the storyline. We would then have a CoD of Action-Adventures and I think the least of fans of the franchise would like that. The full set of screenshots can be found on Kotaku.
