Following the controversy surrounding the lack of a female assassin in their upcoming title, Ubisoft released a new CGI trailer for Assassin's Creed: Unity that shows Arno racing against time and through a dense and chaotic central Paris in order to prevent the beheading of Elise, a female (wow!) character central to Assassin's Creed: Unity's story.
Described as an independent young noblewoman, Elise is determined to secure her place in the Templar dynasty amidst the chaos of the French Revolution. Her quest leads her to cross paths with Arno and establish an unlikely bond with him.
In addition to the new trailer (you can see it below), Ubisoft is offering fans the chance to discover a novel by Oliver Bowden based on Assassin's Creed: Unity. This new paperback from Penguin Random House builds on Bowden's past Assassin's novels - with 3 million copies sold to date - and examines an era when the divide between the rich and poor is at its most extreme, and a nation is tearing itself apart. Told from Elise's perspective, the book follows her and Arno as they are drawn into the centuries-old battle between the Assassins and the Templars - a world with dangers more deadly than they could ever have imagined - and fight to avenge all they have lost.
Finally, fans can now also order "Elise: The Fiery Templar," a high quality figurine designed by Ubicollectibles that features Elise as she sets her sights on her target with her gun poised and sword sheathed at the ready on her back. This collectible can be assembled into a diorama with the "Arno: The Fearless Assassin" figurine. Additional digital content for Assassin's Creed: Unity also is included with the purchase of this collectible.
Assassin's Creed: Unity will be released worldwide on October 28th for PS4, Xbox One and PC. The novel Assassin's Creed: Unity will be available in November. "Elise: The Fiery Templar" figurine will be released on October 14 and you can pre-order it via Uplay Shop.
"My main problem with Dead Kings is still the technical side of things. It simply doesn't run as smooth as you'd expect."
"You'll scream, swear and pound your head against the coffee table, and then you'll reload the game, because when it works, it really works."
