Out of the embers of his burning village, a new assassin will rise. Born of Mohawk and British blood, his fight for freedom and justice will be forged in the flames of revolution.

Assassin's Creed 3

The first trailer has finally been released for Assassin's Creed 3. Connor, our Native American protagonist, is shown cutting down British Red Coats while George Washington gives one of his famous speeches.

Although being 'half British', the name Connor is Irish for Wolf Kin, or Lover of Wolves, which is fitting since the trailer also shows Wolves clearing up after the killings!

No real hints as to what cities may be involved, however New York was the largest city at the time. A screenshot below shows British Guards at what looks like a dock, and since New York was under British Control throughout most of the revolution, this may be one of the areas we interact with.

It is definitely an interesting time period surrounded in conspiracy theories and hidden agendas, so I for one am looking forward to seeing how they intertwine the Assassin's Creed story with the forming of today's most powerful nation.

A few days ago some screenshots were 'leaked' online. They can be found below the video.
