Assassin's Creed Unity possible leak *potential spoilers*

I'm actually super interested in this even though I've skipped all the AC games after Brotherhood. At the same time though, it feels a lot like a sort of fake that simply hints at what lots of people really want, rather than what the game is. I guess we'll find out soon enough?

Well, Mr. Leaker has said that he's going to post some off-screen footage. So either he's got something to show, or he was willing to snuff out the flames of his own 'leak' so soon.

Fuck, I'm interested as all hell. I need to hurry up and finish Liberation and Black Flag before Unity.

I believe any game made before 1997 is "essentially cave man art."
Yeah, maybe you don't spend all that much time in France but instead you spend it all across those listed mission types. That is a tall task even for a dev team of 1000

There quite possibly might be a test of some kind..Who knows...
Cant say anymore due to NDA

All I'm saying is that Reddit poster is an asshole who doesn't seem to take NDAs seriously.



Also that quote is bullshit and he is speaking out of his ass.

Oh, sounds like it might not be what we think it is. Lol. Probably some bonus side content stuff with the same assets as the main game to satisfy some fan requests?
 
This was my exact reaction too.

Hype level rising through the roof right now.
Me too, trying to digest the info.

Is this thing separate to the main Paris & Arno campaign? The poster on Reddit seems to say we can 'free roam' these levels but also compete for points or something, Ireland and the famine was mentioned. Only thing I can see as to it being fake is the weird background to every box and the reused art for Aveline, Ezio, Edward and Altair. The art also doesn't seem consistent.

From the leaker:

Currently network code is atrocious. But on the occasional that the connection goes through it is very interesting having multiple players.
As an example in one place I tossed a bag of coins on the ground and people started swarming it to collect the money. Guards approached to see what the commotion was about. After they were in range my partner dropped a stun grenade and knocked the group out.
Edit: Please bear with me. Due to this being a new account I can only post so fast.

is coin tossing a thing in Assassin's Creed Unity? I haven't anything to suggest that.

Again...he is making shit up and talking out of his ass.

Keep my hype in check. That many different locations in the first true next gen seems a bit ambitious. But, if it's true....then

If this really is true, then I actually have reason to pre-order the game because god damn this sounds exciting.
At the same time, I am prepared to be disappointed. ;__;

This looks like a lore selection menu to me, which would make sense to have as a the first game on new platforms.

That could be it. Maybe stuff you unlock from collecting stuff in the main game, and that's the menu where you play the videos after you unlock them.
 
Don't do this to yourselves GAF. Do not jump to conclusions from a reddit poster who is flat out lying about things. He is simply doing it for more clicks.

If real, this is amazing.

Needs Connor though.

EDIT: I'm guessing The Lone Eagle is supposed to be Connor and the Haytham picture is a placeholder?

Devils of the Caribbean was one of the Abstergo Entertainment projects in AC4, maybe those are all games they made or something? Maybe its connected to the modern day somehow.

Of course, maybe its fake. If thats fake Ill be sad for days.

Exactly. Even the titles sound like titles to lore segments. Unlocking lore video's through side missions or collectibles just makes a lot of sense, as it would give you a reward for completing something, and also fill you in on the lore that a lot of people either never knew, or have forgotten about.
 
After seeing the rush of "don't believe this fool" comments, I'm gonna revert back to my original guess: they're collectible snippets of/trailers for in-universe Abstergo Entertainment products.
