PlayStation 3 gamers who haven’t met the Assassin’s Creed series’ renaissance man can become thoroughly acquainted for a reduced price in November. Sony announced the Assassin’s Creed Ezio Trilogy this week, a PS3-exclusive compilation of Assassin’s Creed II, Brotherhood, and Revelations, which will head to retail November 13 for $40.
The three games cover the fictional lifespan of Italian renaissance assassin (renaissassin?) Ezio Auditore from birth to his golden years spent stabbing orderlies in exotic retirement villas (fine, guards in Constantinople.) All associated DLC for ACII is included in the pack, though Sony made no mention of DLC for the other two games.
The trilogy pack will be preceded on October 30 by Assassin’s Creed III, the first series entry to star a new assassin since Ezio came onto the scene in 2009. ACIII associate producer Julien Laferrière told Eurogamer that Ubisoft made three games starring the suave master assassin because fans “loved Ezio,” and that future appearances of new assassin Connor Kenway will be equally dependant on player reaction.

1. Diablo III
2. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
3. Mass Effect 3
4. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
5. Skylanders
6. Battlefield 3
7. Max Payne 3
8. Assassin’s Creed Revelations
9. Mario & Sonic At The London 2012 Olympic Games
10. Saints Row: The Third
Keep in mind there’s a bunch of things this list doesn’t factor in, such as Collectors Editions, Game of the Year re-releases, and digital downloads. Still, when Australian gamers are reaching backwards for their next gaming fix, it’s either an interesting indictment on their tastes, or on the standard of games released in 2012. What’s your take?

]]>We don’t know if this is really the end for Ezio, but there’s a real feeling of finality to the trailer. Though the launch trailer was released today, the game doesn’t actually launch until November 15 in all territories (the PC version is out November 29). And no matter the conclusion of the game, this isn’t truly the end for Ezio, as he’s playable in January’s Soulcalibur V.

While the deal has yet to be finalized, it’s expected that Ubisoft’s film division would retain a high degree of control over the property, though Variety speculates that the picture could be of a large enough scale that both studios would bankroll the production. Ubisoft confirmed that its brands command “high interest from top Hollywood studios,” though neither company would comment further on just how far planning has come. It’s unclear, for instance, whether Ubi’s plans for a 3D Creedwould come wrapped into this deal (especially given the diminishing returns shown on 3D pictures since that announcement).
The last big-screen adaptation of an Ubisoft property was 2010’s Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time with Disney. Sony’s own gaming properties also enjoy varying stages of big-screen development, most notably in the form of the company’s ongoing efforts to realize an Uncharted movie.

]]>This wasn’t the only video we got from Ubisoft today, as the second one we received is a much more informal look at Ezio assassinating in style. Wielding almost every weapon we’ve seen in the series to date, this violent montage gives you a smattering of kills that should satisfy the most bloodthirsty of Ass Creed fans. Revelations hits store shelves worldwide November 15.
