Earlier this year we were told by Jean-Francois Boivin (associate producer on Brotherhood) that Assassin's Creed 3 won't be released in 2011. Now Ubisoft isn't so sure about that.
In a interview with CVG Eric Gallant, senior international brand manager, said the comments made by Boivin were "personal opinion" and it "was misleading information, it was more of an expression of personal opinion, or observation."
While he didn't completely deny it, Gallant continued to be reserved on the subject saying, "I can't talk about next year or the following years. The only thing I can say is that it is our biggest franchise and we're always thinking about new ways of keeping our fans excited and into the brand, so there could be surprises and announcements in the following months - I don't know." Something tells me he does know.
Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood is set for a November 16 release. For them to release the third game in 2011 will undoubtedly give them a negative response from fans and press, not to mention that games with such a short development cycle are generally not high quality.
