Having it be in WW2 is rediculous. What is it going to be next Call Of Duty : Assassin's Creed 3?


 * To be honest, I don't think it will take place in World War II. That one's a bit out there. The most supported outcome is modern day. Desmond already has all of Ezio and Altair's skills, and he needs to protect the temples or the earth will be completely razed like it was in the past. This leads me to believe this:
 * The setting is apocalyptic. Desmond will travel the world to locate the temples of the gods/goddesses and restore them. All the while, the sun will be growing more and more unstable. If Desmond fails, the Earth meets its end and the gods will be unable to restore it again (as Minerva mentioned that they had lost too much of their power at the end of ACII.)
 * As for the templars, there are two possibilities:


 * 1) They don't know what's coming and simply continue attempting to build their new world
 * 2) Their vision of the new world involves utter destruction
 * Now, should Desmond succeed, the world will be saved. Vidic will most likely be the final boss to face, leading me to believe #2 in the templar possibilities. He could have a line like this:
 * "Desmond, you fool. Humanity is far too ignorant for its own good. What have we created? War, killing, and stealing."
 * See how easy it would be? Think about it.- N e o ( T ) ( C ) ( Home ) 02:18, December 24, 2009 (UTC)

What should be put on this article?
I think we should only write possible settings the developer spoke themselves and not speculations, even from the game's information. With all the time periods and locations that have been seen in the game, it would be endless...--PhantomT1412 23:39, December 27, 2009 (UTC)

NEWS

It has been said that it would star ezio

confirmation
Ubisoft's new Assassin's Creed game will again star Italian hero Ezio, Ubisoft has confirmed - and will be created by the same studios behind AC2.

The publisher today revealed that the story of the game will be a "follow-up" to AC2.

It has also been revealed that Assassin’s Creed 3 will be released in March, 2011 - Killer garry

Thats not the third game, it an expansion or "epilogue" to AC II (J.h.jaraub 17:19, January 17, 2010 (UTC))

this is direct from ubisoft website-

The 2010-11 fiscal year will see a greater number of franchise releases than in 2009-10, including Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell Conviction™, a new game in the Tom Clancy™’s Ghost Recon® series, Prince of Persia The Forgotten Sands™, Driver®, Raving Rabbids™ 4 and a new episode of Assassin’s Creed®, which will be the first in the series to have an online multiplayer mode.

so it seems like there will be a side game. - killer garry

Yes, this game is called "Assassin's Creed:Brotherhood". It stars Ezio but it is INBETWEEN ACII and the soon-to-be ACIII. You could say that it is AC2.5 but it is NOT Assassin's Creed 3 Tom LV69 18:38, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

This does not belong on this page!!! BROTHERHOOD IS NOT AC3 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 81.11.189.183 00:36, August 27, 2010 (UTC)

AC3
it could be in WW2 cause it would have a good plot. You try to assassinate Hitler and his staff, who are secretly Templars, from finding a piece of eden to win WW2. It could be based on real assassination plots, like the July 1944 bomb plot. Since multiple countries tried to assassinate him, you could play as alot of different assassins from different countries. that would be awsome.


 * No it couldn't. I believe it was the... uhh... storywriter(?)... who said that it wouldn't be set in WWII. And guys, remember to sign your posts with ~ ... -- Master Sima Yi 17:37, January 17, 2010 (UTC)


 * its still a good storyline, maybe for assassins Creed 4, if they make it, hopefully with guns too, probably a hidden pistol with a silencer. And I dont really care what anyone says its still a good plot. Third Echelon 22:48, January 17, 2010 (UTC) Third Echelon 22:47, January 17, 2010


 * Yeah, I wouldn't mind seeing it personally either. It has already been stated in AC II that Hitler was a Templar and was killed by Assassins. They said they wouldn't give it this time era as they want to let players explore other time periods in history. -- Master Sima Yi 07:36, January 18, 2010 (UTC)

Anybody ever thought about that maybe it'd take place BEFORE Altair's time? "Altair was the middle of a very very long timeline" I think that'd be interesting. The italian renaissance was about as near to modern times as I cared for, anyways. ~Shyanmar 14:23, January 23, 2010

You do realise that they said that the Assassins Creed Series would be a TRILOGY. Like three times... -- Spoonodeath 13:30, February 26, 2010 (UTC)


 * Once they finished Desmond's story, they can just start with another's, like Daniel Cross'. -- Master Sima Yi 14:28, September 29, 2010 (UTC)

I think that what they meant with "middle of a very very long timeline" was starting from Jesus I think Because what would be the use of going further back than Altaïr? and WWII? Hell NO this ain't a shooter go play some Call Of Duty or something!


 * Just because it's WWII doesn't necessarily mean it has to be a shooter. You play as an ASSASSIN, I highly doubt he would attract attention by using some form of heavy firearm. -- Master Sima Yi 14:28, September 29, 2010 (UTC)

Anyway Ubisoft already said it wouldn't be in WW2, they like it to be in little known ages of time. So my suggestions are: -French Revolution -Ancient Japan or China -South American in colonial times -Wild West (Not so sure but it would be cool)Le Vulpe 00:21, October 5, 2010 (UTC)

cool idea
What about the 1920s? Like mafioso and stuff? Al Capone could be an ally and Elliot Ness a templar?


 * Yeah, Capone as an Assassin could be cool. The Untouchables as Templars as well. However, except for that there isn't much happening at the time. -- Master Sima Yi 07:36, January 18, 2010 (UTC)

AC3
In an interview with Patrice, he said it could be in WWII era, but his personal favorite idea is that of Japan. And yes, the scriptwriter, Cory, said that as long as he is writing for Assassin's Creed it will not be set in WWII era, so unless Ubisoft wants to fire their scriptwriter, its not going to be in WWII. 98.112.8.159 01:20, January 19, 2010 (UTC)Chess

This *rumor* about feudal Japan is been going since AC1 was released. I personally don't like it. Anyway, do you have a link to your source? -- D. Cello 01:22, January 19, 2010 (UTC)

I quoted it wrong actually. It wasnt Patrice, it was someone else that works with ubisoft. And it wasnt a personal favorite, it was a general favorite... but heres my source... 98.112.8.159 01:47, January 19, 2010 (UTC)Chess

http://www.gadgetreview.com/2009/10/gaming-rumor-assassins-creed-3-to-be-set-in-feudal-japan.html

I would love a Feudal Japan storyline. I know quite a lot about it, as my interest rose after playing Samurai Warriors. I could easily see Oda Nobunaga become the main antagonist. He's usually portrayed as a cruel man and he was very fascinated about the Western culture, so in the game universe he could possibly have turned to a Templar. If he would be the antagonist, we would get one interesting final battle... the Incident at Honnō-ji, in which Nobunaga was rebelled against by Akechi Mitsuhide. -- Master Sima Yi 12:36, January 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * I think Feudal Japan will be awesome! *_* I'm kinda hoping that the story will be more into Classical Japan such as Heian period, although that is so unlikely cuz Heian period took place even before Third Crusade =/ - Silver  Summoner TaLk 14:31, January 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * Hm... the Heian period is also a good choice. Seeing Taira no Kiyomori as the main antagonist is a good idea. But I don't think it falls under Feudal Japan. I thought Feudal Japan was from the Azuchi Momoyama period to the early Edo period. -- Master Sima Yi 15:49, January 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * That's why I said Classical Japan :D it took place before Third Crusade, if I'm not mistaken. - Silver  Summoner TaLk 15:58, January 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * I believe it ended about 2 years before it with Kiyomori's death. So it is highly unlikely. Feudal Japan seems more logical as there would be about 2 generations between Ezio and the new ancestor. -- Master Sima Yi 16:01, January 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * Indeed it is. But honestly, Desmond has no Asian features at all O.o new character, perhaps? - Silver  Summoner TaLk 16:03, January 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * Well, if the ancestor would have married a Western woman, and their child(ren) would, and so on and on, I'm pretty sure you won't see any Asian features again. Got me? XD -- Master Sima Yi 16:06, January 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * haha... XD yeah I got you~ but I think the features will still be visible up until 3 or 4 generations (this is purely based on observation XD). Unless 400 years is enough to build more than 4 generations, Feudal Japan is not really suitable cuz Desmond has no Asian features and thus will make some plotholes~ XD you know what I mean? - Silver  Summoner TaLk 16:26, January 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * Agree with Silver, 400 years can hold about 5 or 6 generations (sometimes more), but Desmond ain't got nothing asian. Maybe they will move to Elizabethane England or Industrial Revolution or something like it, to make Desmond irish descendant and go to EUA. Although... we got any proof he's really american besides the language and accent? -- D. Cello 16:47, January 19, 2010 (UTC)

FYI
FYI

Assassin's Creed 2's sales have reached 8 million worldwide and Ubisoft is wasting no time on the game's follow-up. Assassin's Creed 3 was announced last month by Ubisoft in a press release and they revealed that it would out during the 2010-2011 fiscal year. During a third quarter financial call, Ubisoft has revealed more details about the game. We already knew that it would include a multiplayer mode and that it would again star ACII's Ezio. Ubisoft's CEO Yves Guilletmot announced today that the new game will take place in Rome. He stated that this time Ezio will "strike directly at the heart of the Templars order in Rome". He also mentioned the game's multiplayer mode that "players will also be able to challenge their friends in a very innovative assassination multiplayer." We will have to wait to see exactly what that will mean when more details are released.

We expect Assassin's Creed 3 to be here hopefully this holiday season but no official date has been given yet. I'm sure we can probably expect it to be announced for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and the PC like previous games.

 * Altough the site says it's AC3, the Ubisoft press release only states it's a new episode. Until we have a confirmation from a Ubisoft Release with the name "Assassin's Creed III" in full letters, it will be considered a spin-off, not a sequel. -- D. Cello 17:13, February 15, 2010 (UTC)

This site has the quote, which is in this article, however it states more from another producer and even has (assuming) concept art(?) I'm not sure the information is valid. And the art could be fake, but I'm just not sure if it should be included in this article. http://community.eu.playstation.com/t5/PlayStation-3-Games/Assassins-Creed-3-will-see-Desmond-become-the-Ultimate-Assassin/m-p/9792714 -- Altaïr March 09, 2010 (UTC)

The concept art seems to be fanmade. There are no Ubisoft patches and there's an author sign. We can't assume it to be official, since, officially, nothing has been stated about it. -- D. Cello 23:00, March 10, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, that looks like its straight from Deviant Art or something of that nature. But is AC3 really going to be just a continuation of Ezio's Story!? If it is, im somewhat dissapointed, i really like Desmond, his ingenious part of the story is why i PLAY these games. I mean, atleast Feudal Japan sounds more sound (though even that seems a little far off.) Oh, and i apologise if that was a little difficult to understand, my english isn't perfect. :) J.h.jaraub 23:12, March 10, 2010 (UTC)

No, it's not said to be a continuation of Ezio's life. The next Ezio's game is a separate game, like Bloodlines. -- D. Cello 23:18, March 10, 2010 (UTC)

The Turk Crusade?
I was a bit baffled when I read this, cause I don't know what this means. Are people sure that he doesn't mean Third Crusade instead of Turk Crusade, although I read it from other sites too, but again one could have copied it from the other, thereby copying wrong information. -- Altaïr March 09, 2010 (UTC)
 * Agree. Turk crusade donesn't make a lot of sense. oO -- D. Cello 23:03, March 10, 2010 (UTC)

Setting
I remember Lucy talking about subject 16s talking about africa, the middle east and afew other places, and then having an obsession with Italy. So I was thinking that maybe Japan, or, possibly Africa. Of course there where more countries, but i think Africa could be likely because, as said before, traits can be passed down and still stay, but skin tone, if partnering with a western person, and agasin with a western person, it would most likely get whiter each time. And Desmonds skin is still slightly darker than others, so its semi plausible. just an idea.LOLKING 21:08, April 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * It could also just be referring to 'Those who came before' as they originated from Africa. Doesn't take away that Africa is a potential setting, cause it would make sense they would investigate Africa if they want to find out what truly happened in order what is going to happen... Altaïr 23:20, March 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * I just hope they surprise us with a great, fun and inexpected setting like Italy in Renaissance. Making three good games in a row isn't a easy task. -- D. Cello 21:29, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

Japan
Me again, sorry, my crazy ideas, know this should probably be on a forum, but people are saying it wont be Japan because Desmond dosnt look asian. But they changed Desmonds look slightly in assassins creed to make him look more like ezio, so they could tweak him just a little to make him look of asian decent. like just a bit, bit thinner eyes maybe, hope im not being racist. LOLKING 02:55, April 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't think that will happen. To change someone from Syrian to Italian is not far stretched, cause Altaïr and Ezio both look Caucasian. The reason they changed him is just so they could use the same model for all three of them. Even Altaïr had Ezio's face, but they're still meant to be the same. But changing to Asian would require a larger change in his looks. It could still be set in Japan, as one Assassin travels there maybe... But again we have no idea if this is true -- Altaïr 5:01 April 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * My 2 euros on the subject: Asian isn't jsut stretched eyes, there also skincolor changes. And we have to consider that the games are moving *forward* in time, first Middle Ages, now Renaissance. To go back to Japan, maybe could not happen. -- D. Cello 03:44, April 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well the skin colour can be explained. I mean look at Brandon Lee. He's a half-blood. So his skin is more Caucasian. That's how you could explain it. However I don't think it will take place in Japan... It would be odd to switch from the renaissance to Japan. -- Altaïr 14:57 April 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * It definitly can't be in japan because wouldn't the time everyone is pointing out be a jump backwards form the 1400's? also it will probably be in modern times don't know the place though im guessing the whole world because he has to collect all the PoE and go to the temples so it will probably either mainly be in the U.S. or in europe because the company abstergo is in english so
 * Cello, there is no need to go back. The probably most famous era of Japan was Feudal Japan, which took place in around the 16th century. Oda Nobunaga would make for a great villain. Concerning the skin colour, the ancestor doesn't need to be full blood Asian. He could still be half-Caucasian. -- Master Sima Yi 11:53, June 4, 2010 (UTC)

Ezio?
I read recently that due to the reception of the second game, Ezio has been confirmed to make a return... Has this changed? O.o Batjimi 16:54, April 24, 2010 (UTC)

Ezio will be back in a game that (currently) is called 'Assassin's Creed II: Episodes', which is a continuation of the second game, however it's not 'Assassin's Creed III'. Altaïr 19:30, April 24, 2010 (UTC)

Ancient Africa
I have reason to believe the main character and setting will be from/in Ancient Africa. If you listen to Assassin's creed 2 Dialogue, when talking about Desmond's ancestors, they say some have been from many important places, and they name three as examples, which I quote, "The Middle East, Ancient Africa, and Italy." Two are already made (Ezio/Italy, Altair/Middle East). So does anyone think AC3 may take place in ancient africa? 74.5.181.154 20:45, April 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's likely, after all Those Who Came Before are from ancient Africa. So it is possible that they'll investigate the roots Altaïr 00:46, April 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * I can't see how that would work. There are no buildings to climb in Ancient Africa, let alone high buildings to use as view points. Besides, how they mix it with history? There is almost nothing known about Ancient Africa, as for as I know. -- Master Sima Yi 14:21, September 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * For some reason I've felt that AC3 might consist of many different time era's. Instead of focusing on just one ancestor it might focus on many. As well as I think AC3 will be the final game. So I think Desmond will play a major if not the biggest part because the entire reason of AC2 was to train Desmond. Why train him if he wasn't going to be used?
