Over the years, Desmond Miles has played a pretty large role in the Assassin’s Creed franchise. Â As the descendant of both Altair and Ezio, Desmond has seen plenty of screen-time in all four Assassin’s Creed titles. Â Assassin’s Creed III will be no different, according to Matt Turner, the lead writer for the game.
“All I can say about Desmond’s story is you’re going to experience more Desmond than you’ve ever had before,” Turner told CVG. Â “We’re spending more time on the present than we have in past games…rest assured, you’re going to see a lot of Desmond. Â More so than in any past game. ”
Turner didn’t reveal much about the context of how Desmond will factor in to the story of Connor, but Ubisoft has said that Desmond’s story will come to a close prior to the in-game date of December 2012.
Assassin’s Creed III is set for an October 30th, 2012 release on Xbox 360, PS3, PC, and Wii U.
