Assassin’s Creed fans rejoice: Ubisoft announced that they are collaborating with Hybrid Technologies to release a series of short movies on the internet. Their purpose, aside of generating excitement for the upcoming Assassin’s Creed 2, is to explain the actual history and background of Assassin’s Creed. The movies themselves are a mix of live-action and CGI, with high production values.
The first one, a 14 minute movie, has been publicly released. I must say it was 14 minutes well spent. Here’s the video so you can watch for yourself:
I loved every moment of the video, but what do you think of it? Additionally, what do you think of the events in it?
Assassin’s Creed 2 hits shelves November 17th.



VERY high production values. After watching the trailer, I wasn’t sure until about 5 minutes into this whether the characters themselves were CGI or not. Took me a while to realise they were live action actors. Amazing little short film though, I’d bet it was all done in green screen, but it looks so natural.
