Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood PS3 Multiplayer Beta Dated, PC Version Pushed To 2011

Ubisoft has revealed that virtual killers looking for an early taste of the new multiplayer portion of the upcoming action-stealth continuation Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood will have their chance on October 4 when the multiplayer beta lands exclusively on PlayStation 3.


According to VG247, Ubisoft will be passing along beta invites to those people who’ve preordered any of the various versions of the game. Players will have their pick of nine characters, two maps--Rome and Castle Gandolfo--and will be able to enjoy the multiplayer stealth slaying with up to eight other players in either Alliance or Wanted mode.

Brotherhood
is scheduled for release on PS3 and Xbox 360 November 16, however Ubisoft confirmed today that the PC version has been pushed to Q1 2011. It isn’t clear why at this point, but separate release isn’t terribly surprising either, given that Assassin’s Creed II released for PC in March 2010, four months after the console versions. I'm waiting to hear back from Ubisoft about the delay, so I'll keep you posted.

    Well that really sucks! I do have both the PS3 and the Xbox 360, but I prefer to play most of my games on the 360. I just really don't care for how the PS3 controller feels in my hand. I pre-ordered this game for the 360 but can I get the beta for the PS3? Like I said I do have both systems.

    The release is clearly just a demo, and they might MIGHT work out online problems. That's it. You don't release a 'beta' a month before the game comes out. It's just to make a buzz and get people interested.

    I don't understand. They are going to do a beta test just a little over a month from the games release? I just don't see how that is going to be enough time to to let the beta run, gather and process the data, and fix any bugs/problems or make any additions/subtraction to the game/game play before the game ships...

    I own a PS3 so im happy to hear this. Sorry Xbox360 owners. Win some you lose some. Although, I dont think I'll play the beta too much unless everything I unlock is carried over to the main game.

    I think its a stab at stimulating a community so hopefully this will help PSN's community. Just like Battlefield bad company 2 us 360ers had to sit and watch PS3 people get to beta test that one too.

    i really hate when companies make betas and demos exclusive, to me what it seems to do is actually hurt your sales or even the effectiveness of your testing because you aren't testing for every possible situation on every media out put the game is being released for...also the beta testing seems to be more like a demo here because its coming out about a month before the game is released i don't see that as an effective time span to tweak certain things like reach did releasing a beta test 4 months in advance so they can get down the balancing and take data.

    This is such bull, I was so excited for the beta to be released this month >.<

    I can't wait to play this game. It is definitely the most anticipated game for me this year.
