Assassin's Creed confirmed for PC

Thursday 31 August 2006
PS3 title Assassin's Creed will "indeed see the light some day" on PC in the UK, it has today been confirmed.

We spoke to publisher and developer Ubisoft following a preview that appeared in the latest issue of PC Gamer magazine and it was confirmed that the medieval adventure game will definitely be making the transition from PS3 to PC, with Ubisoft promising further details soon.

When this would happen is unknown, however, or if this news also means that an Xbox 360 version is on the cards. But after the long-running rumours from earlier in the year that the game was heading to PC and Xbox 360, our thinking is that Sony will enjoy a limited PS3 exclusive on Assassin's Creed for a good few months before the stealthy murder sim sneaks off to the competition.
