Assassin's Creed III: Liberation

Sony last night revealed Assassin's Creed III: Liberation, a new title exclusively for the PS Vita.

The game will feature a female assassin, Aveline, and a whole new storyline to experience as she fights for freedom in New Orleans.

The game will utilise the PS Vita's front and rear touch buttons, as well as gyroscopic controls.

"The release of Assassin's Creed III Liberation will be the series' most ambitious handheld offering to date," said Geoffroy Sardin, chief EMEA sales and marketing officer at Ubisoft/Tony Key, US senior vice-president of sales and marketing at Ubisoft.

"Combining the console-like experience with Sony PlayStation Vita exclusive features, Assassin's Creed III Liberation will be a leading example of what gamers should expect from a handheld experience."
