Hasta La Gadget!

There were rumors in the past concerning a co-op multiplayer mode in Assassin’s Creed 3, but so far nothing has been substantiated just yet. Well, I guess it is a great way to end the week on a good note with word that the co-op multiplayer mode is indeed real in Assassin’s Creed 3. This particular multiplayer mode that requires you and a teammate (or another 3) to work together is known as the Wolf Pack, where it is capable of supporting up to a quartet of players as your entire team work together in tracking down and assassinating NPCs through the entire slew of 25 sequences.

It does seem to be a spin on the standard Assassin’s Creed multiplayer, where Wolf Pack was first revealed at Comic Con and and picked up by IGN managed to sniff down the expansion pack. Assassin’s Creed 3 is tipped to arrive at the end of October on both the Sony PS3 and Xbox 360 platforms, while those who want to play it on the Wii U will just have to wait until the console launches. Those who want to rock to the PC version will have to wait until right before Christmas.

Despite being just another game in a long-running franchise, Assassin’s Creed 3 is probably one of the most anticipated games to be released this year. With all the hype built up over the past few months, and especially its numerous E3 awards, a lot of folks are dying to get their hands on the game. Well, if you’re one of them you’ll still have to wait for October 31st. However, to somewhat sate your appetite or make the wait a little more bearable, a new trailer for the game has been released today.

Unfortunately it’s not action-packed like the previously released footage we’ve seen before, but it does show off how much money went into the game’s advertising budget. Either way, it’s a pretty entertaining video to kickstart your Wednesday. Check it out above.

You can easily find instructions to make your own Assassin’s Creed-style hidden blade, but if you don’t have the skills to put one together, check out this life-sized replica by prop maker NECA. It’s not made from steel, but I think we can all agree that that’s a plus.

The replica is based on the armored vambrace worn by the assassin so nice you played as him thrice Ezio Auditore in Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood. It’s made of PVC and ABS plastic, has buckle and velcro straps and a scary effective spring loaded mechanism that pops the blade out quite quickly.

Yikes. Even if it has a safety lock I’d be more comfortable if the blade was on the upper part of the gauntlet, Wolvie style. You can pre-order the replica from GameStop – where assassins shop and trade-in second hand weapons – for only $40 (USD). Reckless play will cost you a lot more than that.
