IGNs Assassins Creed Progress Report

Yet again Hexadecimal is first off the mark with the news and progress report that IGN have reported on about Assassins Creed. In the progress report they spoke about aspects of the game’s combat, the investigation role in the assassinations, as well as various potential side missions.

Forget what you think you know about Assassin’s Creed.

Sure, that’s an extremely strong statement to make, particularly if you’ve been following the game as closely as we have. The upcoming action title, which features an assassin named Altair during the Third Crusade, has been a heavily anticipated action title ever since it made its first debut two years ago. Even the latest demo that we were shown at this year’s E3 generated greater buzz, as players tracked down and killed a slave trader. But as we found when we checked out the latest build of the title, Assassin’s Creed is much more than killing influential people, climbing buildings and making stealthy escapes into crowds. In fact, Assassin’s Creed is designed to be much more of a sandbox-like experience, giving you the freedom to explore and complete missions whenever and however you want. We went to Montreal to check out the latest build, which was going to be shown on the floor at TGS, and found out just how malleable our explorations as an assassin would be.
