Need to Know – Assassin's Creed III

Assassin's Creed III – setting

So far we know that Boston and New York will feature in the game, and concerns about wide streets and less-crowded buildings can be put to rest as there are plenty of trees and rooftops for free-running action. You can also now crash through open windows, startling occupants as you race out through the other side of buildings during frantic pursuits.

The wild frontier zone will offer an environment never before seen in an Assassin's Creed game. Deep snow will slow you down and cause you to stumble, while trees and rocks offer plenty of opportunities to dish out death from above. You can also jump over or slide under obstacles for a smoother free-running experience
