New Assassin’s Creed With Multiplayer Out This Fiscal Year

by Ben Reeves on Jan 13, 2010 at 05:55 AM

Ubisoft recently released its third quarter financial statements, and that little piece of paper is making some waves. You probably already heard about the Splinter Cell: Conviction delay, but the other big news is the announcement of a new Assassin’s Creed game.

According to the statement, within the next fiscal year, Ubisoft will be releasing “a new episode of Assassin’s Creed, which will be the first in the series to have an online multiplayer mode.” Sounds sweet to us, but we don’t know if “episode” means that it will be a downloadable game or if this “new” Assassin’s Creed will release in retail for home consoles or even handheld systems. We’ll keep you posted.

If you had to guess what would you say this new Assassin’s Creed game will be?
