Tiny Diggers – An iPad Construction Truck Game for Kids Age 2-5

The rumors had been swelling around the Internet about a multiplayer Assassins Creed title coming out this fall, and it appears that the news was half right.  Yes, Assassins Creed Brotherhood, is now official, and it does contain a multiplayer component, but it also will have a single player storyline that features the protagonist of the second title, Ezio.

Ezio returns to the spotlight, now a master assassin, and he will also have the ability to summon the Assassins Brotherhood to assist him in his battle against the Templars in the hopes of extinguishing them once and for all.  It is not explained in any greater detail, so no word on if it plays as a squad based title, or if you will play through the single player in a co-op mode.  Brotherhood will also allow players to take up arms as The Templars, with all the training they could ask for from Abstergo, the corporation where Desmond is being held against his will.

Like I said, the press release was a bit vague on details, with the exception that they will hve a full breakout expose in the July 2010 issue of the Official Playstation Magazine.  Read more after the jump.
