Since its launch in 2007, Assassin's Creed has become one of the world's best-selling game franchises, with the first four console games selling more than 38 million units worldwide. This year, Assassins Creed 3 will mark the biggest launch in Ubisoft's history, thanks to more than three years' development spent on revolutionizing the franchise's epic, intense and immersive gameplay and storytelling. Assassin's Creed also has transcended console gaming by branching out into other areas of entertainment, including comic books, novels, and short films. With today's announcement, Ubisoft and GREE are committing to delivering a new and innovative social gaming experience to the franchise, available exclusively on the GREE Platform and through Android™ and Apple® iOS devices.
