The US Official PlayStation Magazine has published a few new snippets of info that should be of interest. Firstly, the mag noted that the game will be released in Europe early in 2007 on the PlayStation 3 (although rumour has it that the game will also arrive on Xbox 360 at some point). The magazine also reveals that we can expect new game content delivered over the internet, and some form of multiplayer co-op play.
The first game in the Assassin's Creed franchise is set in 1191 AD, when the Third Crusade was tearing the Holy Land apart. Shrouded in secrecy and feared for their ruthlessness, the Assassins intend to stop the hostilities by suppressing both sides of the conflict. Players, assuming the role of the main character Altair, will have the power to throw their immediate environment into chaos and to shape events during this pivotal moment in history.
While noooz.com was talking to a Ubi employee who asked not to be named, he accidentally let slip that Assassin's Creed is being developed on 360 as well.

Assault Heroes 2 is available now on Xbox LIVE Arcade!
What's this? An announcement about Assault Heroes 2? I just turned on my Xbox 360, and the ad on my Media blade says (quite clearly) "Assault Heroes 2? with a corner slice of text stating "Out next Wednesday". I guess that solves that one, eh?
