Ben-DutkaAssassin's Creed III isn't the only potentially awesome game that comes out on October 30.
There's another AC title, a standalone adventure that acts as the perfect complement to the PS3/360 iterations: It's Assassin's Creed III: Liberation for the PlayStation Vita, which was officially unveiled at E3 this year and features a new protagonist, new setting, and new story (that ties in with ACIII).
We get another great look at it with a fresh Extended Trailer, which shows off Aveline's many capabilities. She's a full-fledged assassin, capable of taking on groups of enemies, scaling buildings with ease, and even performing that trademark swan dive into bales of hay from a gazillion feet up. This is probably one of the biggest reasons to own a Vita.
For more, be sure to check out our preview .
Looks amazing. Definitely day one! After this I expect the Vita to have an influx of AAA games.
Just thought of this. If Desmond will be the one revisiting his past in the Animus, I wonder how he will react to being in a female body. All of the AC games had sex or at least implied. This may be quite a conundrum.

Thought Desmond ended with Revelations.
That's on the verge of being a spoiler World. Thanks.
It is? I never got past AC2 and Ubisoft told us that months before Revelations released.
Er… maybe that was Ezio who was finished.
AC3 will have Conner and AC3:L will have Aveline. Will the Animus have only one user? Will it be a male of female? Then again anyone can enter the Animus so we will just to wait and see.
Also.. Maybe I was not paying attention or have a short term memory but how is it Desmonds story "ENDS" in Revelations? I must be getting old. lol

Desmond's story is suppose to end in AC:3, Ezio/Altair were finished in Revelations.
Oh I wasn't saying it did, I've never played the game. Just thought that was the case but I guess I was wrong.
dude, desmonds story is not finished yet!
if you cant be bothered finishing revelations at least go look up the ending online!
its actually 1 thing that makes me really confused why AC3 is how it is, and why were not playing as desmond.
only reason the animus has been used is to train him and find the locations they need.
plus they have said multiple times that this will contain allot more sequences playing as desmond than the previous games have.
Ezio's story ended in Revelations.
Desmond's story will end in AC:3. The reason for this is because the main plot of AC for the last 4 games has centered around an event that is meant to happen at the end of 2012. Hence why that storyline is finishing at the end of 2012, which also means Desmonds story ends.
The character in AC:Liberation is not Desmond, it is another female character. My guess is that it is the other female that Desmond is supposed to "be with".
Ubi has told us that you will spend more time in the present day than in previous games.
I don't think they will do a current day AC, if they do that, what reason could they give us to justify going back to the past again?
Really looking forward to this – looks epic :).
Yes folks this trailer was from the most advanced two stick portable handheld in the world! Amazing! Only good things on the horizon for the Vita. I know it's been tough for a lot of people but just be patient and you will be rewarded.
really disappointed by this.
still far too early to say we have not seen any gameplay yet, but from what little we have seen this looks very similar to AC3.
whats the point of going to all the effort of creating a new game when its so similar to its big brother?
i was really hoping this would be like AC bloodlines, a completely different game to AC2!
Are you ever NOT disappointed by anything?
@Akuma07
Hey Akuma07, what you are doing now has been proven to be the biggest waste of time. __________ is never happy, will never be happy and is incapable of happiness. Just skip over his/her posts.
not my fault developers have to change their franchises into things totally different!
i swear its not, the postage idiots lost my mind control ray gun!
🙁
Bloodlines was pretty terrible in comparison to AC 2 and the DS AC game is even worse. I've been hoping for a while to have an AC experience on the go that comes close to matching the great experiences I've had on the home consoles. Finally it seems like that might happen.
I really wish they could have this one being the main game, and the other the Vita game.
There is something about this female assassin that's just so endlessly more appealing than those macho grunts that's been the main character in AC so far.
