Assassins Creed 3 Achievements List

Despite being a month and a half away from release, Assassin's Creed III's achievements have already surfaced online. Weighing in at 50 awards (four are denoted as "Secret Acheivements"), the achievements add up to the Microsoft-required 1000 Gamerscore points and, presumably, will correspond in a similar manner to PlayStation Network trophies.

As evidenced by the lasting demand for Metal Gear Solid 4's trophy support earlier this year, achievements are a big deal among hardcore gamers and passionate fanbases. They're also conducive to spoilers. And while not all of us here weren't brave enough to peruse the entire list, breaking down every potential mission or the names attached to each achievement, there are a few revealing tidbits about side quests, collectables, combat moves, multiplayer leveling, and explorable landmarks that present themselves right away. Continue on at your own discretion.

The Assassin's Creed III achievements first appeared on Xbox360achievements.com. The site isn't affiliated with Microsoft or Ubisoft, but has a near-impeccable track record for reliability.
