Although the single-player adventure still takes center-stage, the multiplayer is always something refreshing.

Ubisoft has announced that the Assassin's Creed: Revelations multiplayer beta will kick off this week; it'll run from September 3 through September 11. Remember, this is exclusively for PlayStation Plus members and select PS3 Uplay members; if you qualify, you can even pre-load on September 2 "to take the proverbial leap of faith into the action the moment the beta starts."

In the beta test, we'll be able to sample no less than nine characters (including The Guardian, The Vizier, The Trickster, and The Champion), three maps, and four modes: Wanted, Manhunt, Deathmatch, and Artifact Assault. This is only a sample of the final available content, too. Have fun!
