In just a few weeks, Assassin's Creed fans will get their fill with two major titles in the series being released.
In an attempt to increase the hype, Ubisoft has revealed a new trailer for the handheld title Liberation that showcases the story's heroine Aveline de Grandpré, her origins and her motivations.
She states that when she was a child, her mother was taken from her. The city was overrun with Spanish soldiers and was forced into slavery. At another moment she is asked to dance by a man. As they dance, she plunges him with a knife to his midsection. The trailer showcases a great deal of action and even features a quick shot of Connor, the protagonist of the Assassin's Creed 3 for PS 3, Xbox 360, and Wii U which would imply that their paths cross at some point in the story.
According to Ubisoft's website, here is the official plot synopsis:
"The year is 1765. As the events leading up to the American Revolution Heat up in the North, Spanish Forces Plan to take control of Louisiana in the south- but they have yet to reckon with Aveline, a deadly assassin who will use every weapon and ability in her arsenal to win freedom for her land and her people.
Whether silently eliminating her enemies with slow-motion chain kills or luring them into deadly traps, Aveline strikes mortal fear into the hearts of those who stand in her way.
As an Assassin, Aveline soon finds herself on an unforgettable journey that will take her from New Orleans' crowded streets, to voodoo-haunted swamps and ancient Mayan ruins. She will play a pivotal role in the turbulent birth of a new nation as she fights for freedom, not only for herself, but for her fellow citizens.
Designed exclusively for the PlayStation Vita system, you'll take full advantage of the Playstation Vita system's dual touchpads, motion detection, and built-in camera to execute slow-motion chain kills, pickpocket unsuspecting victims, and pursue your enemies in a canoe. This is no mere port; it's an immersive experience designed purely for the PlayStation Vita system."
The title will be related on October 30 exclusively for the PS Vita handheld system. The other Assassin's Creed 3 will be released the same day for the the PS 3 and Xbox 360. The game will then make its debut on the the Wii U on November 18 with new features exclusive for the Gamepad.
