Right off the back ill tell you that this is not a full fledged console Assassins Creed game. This is an iOS game that will be released later this month. That's right Assassins Unite, we got a new mobile game releasing with in the next 4 weeks.  

"ASSASSIN’S CREED IDENTITY is the first Assassin’s Creed ActionRPG game for mobile devices that lets you create, evolve and customize your own Assassins and play them in Fan’s favorite setting: Renaissance Italy.
Embody an Assassin and experience the freedom of movement that made the franchise unique while unraveling the mystery of The Crows and solving dozens of quests." - Ubisoft

It appears that this game isn't going to be the half-assed ordeal that we get from most rushed to mobile games. Ubisoft is describing console like gameplay in their description of the features.

• Experience the FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT: Run, jump, climb and feel the thrill of the leap of faith on your mobile screen!
• Head straight into battle or execute a silent assassination. PLAY HOW YOU WANT TO with simple tap-to-move, dual virtual stick controls or with a gamepad.

• Every place you visit in the ITALIAN RENAISSANCE will be an open map for you to explore: Santa Croce Area in Firenze, the Colosseum area in Roma etc. " - Ubisoft

Thoughts

If you guys have been following me over the last few years you'll know the my love for the series has been depreciating since Assassins Creed III. It doesn't necessaraly mean I don't like the series anymore, its more that I'm not as enthusiastic as i used to be prior to III. There is also no word on an Android version of the game but I do expect one in the future...
