Ubisoft seem to be going all out to tantalise and tease fans to start the speculation ahead of the upcoming sequel to Assassins Creed. The communities have unlocked some more artwork and secrets from the recently launched teaser site. Thanks to josh121 for finding the information on the meanings of the codes on the sections (which can be found here) and thanks to Outlaw-bha for continuing the research and reporting new finds.

Ubisoft have launched a new teaser site for the highly anticipated sequel to Assassins Creed. The site contains many easter eggs and hints for Assassins Creed 2. You can unlock some hidden 3D render of Altairs hidden blade by printing the symbol in the pdf. file and scanning it with a webcam. Or in my case i just pointed my webcam at the monitor and it scanned the symbol and unlocked the artwork. Im sure more symbols will appear on the site to scan for more secret unlocks soon. Can also expect some info in Game Informer on 4/16/09 (as the backwards text reads).

I thought hey, I’m a gamer, a pretty hardcore one i think il give this a go. so i did; Questionnaire wasn’t too exciting to be fair, it was what happened afterwards that was. I was brought into a room with a TV set up and this is what followed…

Ubisoft have at last confirmed that they are ‘hard at work’ on the sequel to the award winning Assassins Creed. The first details came some time ago when the Prince Of Persia team let slip that Altair would be able to swim in the sequel (which can be read here). However Ubisoft have now come out and confirmed during its first-half fiscal 2008-09 conference call that they are hard at work on the sequel. Also analyst Michael Pachter says has changed time frame from 1191 to “several hundred years in the future”, specifically, “sometime in the 1700s. Pachter went on to speculate that the French Revolution could be a potential setting for the sequel, which is infinitely more compelling to us than just more Jerusalem.

Its just been revealed that anyone who preorders their new title in the Prince Of Persia series from GameStation (or GameStop in the US) will be rewarded with a fancy Sands of Time Prince character skin. Along with that Ubisoft have announced that everyone who links their Ubisoft.com user account to their Xbox LIVE Gamertag or PSN account will be rewarded with a rather nice Assassin’s Creed Altair skin.
The producer for Ubisoft’s Prince of Persia had the following to say about this:
