The Kenways are definitely kicking ass even outside the realm of gaming. Play Arts Kai today released a couple of new photos featuring their upcoming PAK Assassins Creed wave. The wave will feature Assassin's Creed III star Connor Kenway and his grandfather Edward Kenway.

Thanks to Amiami for these photos. Damn. I wonder if the market is open for a good pair of liver. HAHA! 

Good job PAK.

Assassin's Creed Movie gets a Release Date

The Michael Fassbender produced Assassin's Creed adaptation is now working towards a deadline - May 22,2015.

Collider reports that the game adaptation from Ubisoft that's been announced that'll be released for 2015 following 'The Avengers 2". Another news worth taking note of, the film has also received a writer - Michael Lesslie. Until now though, there's no word if this movie will revolve around Desmond Miles or his ancestors Altaïr ibn-La'Ahad or Ezio Auditore da Firenze.

I can only say this much:

McFarlane Toys to Release Kenway Clan 3-Pack Action Figures

The Kenways are making waves (no pun intended) with the announcement about an upcoming 3-pack figure set from McFarlane Toys.

McFarlane Toys has stated that they plan to release the set which features the three generations of Assassins from the Kenway family (and one turncoat bastard by the name of Haytham).So if you're still unfamiliar with the characters here they are (from left) Connor Kenway, Haytham Kenway and Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag star Edward Kenway.

No release date as of yet.

Connor's Grandfather Edward Kenway Stars in Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag First Trailer

The release of the new trailer for Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag made several important revelations. The biggest one so far answered the question who do players control in this new game from Ubisoft. 

So who is it anyway? It's actually Connor Kenway's grandfather Edward Kenway.

UPDATE Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag Might Just Be the Next AC Game

IGN posted a new photo on their Facebook page featuring what might just be a new Assassin's Creed game.

There's very little detail about where they acquired this photo let alone the rest of the poster. It's obviously a pirate-centric themed story (I do not want to call it a game at this stage of development). So is Ubisoft currently jonesing on naval battles and fights in high water. Because I don't want to pay good money to play a game involving pirates and privateers and buccaneers. Nosiree. 

Honestly though I'm not pleased with how this franchise is going.  Assassin's Creed III wasn't THAT bad as what some hardcore fans are thinking but it did leave some sour taste in my mouth what with them killing off Desmond Miles and all that. 

Still hoping that this won't be the case for the next Assassin's Creed. Hope they get it right the fourth time.

Here's an update folks:

Could Ubisoft Be Abstergo in Real Life?

Won't it be fun if during the final moments of humanity we find out that Ubisoft, the company behind the Assassin's Creed games were actually Abstergo in real life?

Actually it wouldn't be cool at all, more like cool followed by sarcasm and then a sudden realization that all free will is going the way of the dinosaurs. 


This piece of interview gave me the idea:

“Another thing that is very important for the lifecycle is the transmedia offer. All the figurines, the books, the publishing, and we have a movie in the next coming year. So it’s not only about games, we are talking about a global brand, and this is the life cycle management we want to set up now,”

This statement was given by Geoffrey Sardin who is Ubisoft's chief sales and marketing officer. 

Assassin's Creed III Hoodies and Bathrobes

Wanna feel like Connor from Assassin's Creed 3 without having to cosplay him and while staying at home? Why not get the Assassin's Creed III hoodie or bathrobe from Insert Coin. 

Ubisoft's Watch Dogs - Why the Wait for the Game

E3 2012 showed a lot of great looking games but if you took the time to watch all of the videos currently streaming online, you would have to agree that Ubisoft's Watch Dogs has got to be the most intense and realistic game from the bunch.

Here are some of the things that got my attention, which ultimately lead to me getting the game, enjoying the game and eventually review the game.

A Compilation of Different Assassins from Assassin's Creed

The Assassin's Creed Reddit page is currently featuring some amazing looking Assassins in line with the multi-cultural approach the game has been doing since releasing information about Assassin's Creed III and Assassin's Creed III Liberation. In line with this I decided to feature some amazing Assassin designs if the game decided to feature other cultures and countries.
