Assassin’s Creed 3 AnvilNext engine struts its stuff

Featuring the most dramatic narration for a tech demo ever, the newestAssassin’s Creed 3trailer shows off Ubisoft’s proprietary graphics engine, dubbed AnvilNext. The engine is capable of dynamic weather in all four seasons, absurd numbers of NPCs on-screen at once, and plenty more. There’s also a little bit of Ubisoft bragging that with 1,000 new animations for Conner, he’s become “the most detailed third-person action character ever created.” See, that’s the kind of thing you might not otherwise appreciate while stabbing people in the neck....

This is your second spoiler warning — eventually you have a choice at the end of the game, in the spirit of the narrative itself, to set Chloe free or keep her as your robot assistant....
