Assassins Creed Brotherhood to have the largest map ever!

At a UK press event last week, Ubisoft demonstrated both the single-player and multiplayer gameplay components of the highly-anticipated Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood. Talking with the game’s Associate Producer, Jean-Francois Boivin, Electronic Theatre was informed that the playable area within Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood would be the largest map the series has yet produced.

Set in Rome, our protagonist Ezio Auditore da Firenze returns to avenge the death of his uncle, Mario, and call upon his fellow assassins to destroy the Templar Order once-and-for-all. Though the details of whether Ezio will be able to travel between several destinations, as with the first two games in the series, currently remain under wraps, Boivin categorically stated that Rome would be the “largest ever map” featured in an Assassin’s Creed game.

In multiplayer, of course, the map presented relies on divided districts as opposed to delivering the full length and breadth of the single-player playscape, and rightly so. Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood is set for release this November,
