The new pre-alpha release of Assassins Creed III footage shows sharp uniforms, snow, sheer cliff faces and treetop views. Set in American-revolution sequel style, Union Jacks fly and weary looking soldiers trawl on across docks. Pre-rendered footage and actual gameplay is merged together, giving a not-quite true predicted image of what it’ll actually look like when playing.

You can choose from weaponry including sawtooth swords, tomahawks, grappling hooks and pistols, not forgetting new old-age muskets. Moves such as barrel-rolling through apartments bring multiple new possibilities to the game.
According to The Independant, “Connor slides under branches as he legs it around the exploding green plains, and then climbs all over the landscape, way up in trees and on icy rock faces, barely stopping to hang a British soldier on the way, knifing a few of his mates for good measure.”
Assassins Creed III is out at the end of October this year and will be available on PS3, XBOX360 and PC.
