Assassin's Creed: Revelations Sneaking Up On You In November

Creative, title, huh?  We already knew it was coming in November, though.  Ubisoft showed off an epic new trailer, complete with now 52-year-old Ezio Auditore de Firenze kicking some ass.  He's the nimblest old guy I've ever seen!

Revelations follows Ezio on a journey as he travels to find what Altair, the protagonist from the first game, left behind.  Altair will actually be playable in the game, so I suppose we should prepare for even more time-jumping.  As always, Desmond will be playable as well.

Anyway, a demo of the game was then shown, focusing solely on Ezio; the setting was Constantinople in 1511.  Ezio talks to a friend and undergoes a mission; a few take-downs and some very cinematic moments later, Ezio is onboard a ship to meet a contact, leaving several other (burned and destroyed) ships in his wake.  It was cool stuff.

As before, I'll post a video when one is available.

UPDATE: Video


Arguably the best trailer this year:


Also, here is the gameplay from the demo:


Lastly, at the beginning of this video is the flash short mentioned in the Overview post; the trailer follows it, but it's all low quality, so make sure to watch the trailer from the first video above; anyway, the flash short:
