"Ubisoft have confirmed that that game is indeed in the works, entitled Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood.
The title of the game has been rumoured for a while,solidified by Ubisoft's purchase of the assassinscreedbrotherhood.com domain name a few weeks ago. Until today though, no details had existed about the game. Well, thanks to the leaked photo of the placeholder box art, we know at least a little bit to whet your appetite. The blurb on the box art reads:
"Live and breathe as Ezio, now a legendary master assassin, in his struggle against the Templar order. Lead your own brotherhood of Assassins and strike at the heart of the enemy: Rome. And for the first time, take part in an innovative multiplayer layer allowing you to embody an assassin of your choosing and define their killing style."
Not a whole lot of information sure, so maybe quench that appetite a bit more with some mango or falafel for now. But, Ubisoft have confirmed that the box art is authentic, and "will provide more information next week."
The box art states that Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood is scheduled to release this Fall/Autumn. "
