Assassin's Creed to feature downloadable content

The US Official PlayStation Magazine has revealed that the highly anticipated Assassin's Creed will feature downloadable content and co-op.

One of the stars of E3 was Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed. Its jaw dropping visuals combined with new levels of in-game animation had journalists dropping to their knees during behind closed doors previews.

The US Official PlayStation Magazine has published a few new snippets of info that should be of interest. Firstly, the mag noted that the game will be released in Europe early in 2007 on the PlayStation 3 (although rumour has it that the game will also arrive on Xbox 360 at some point). The magazine also reveals that we can expect new game content delivered over the internet, and some form of multiplayer co-op play.

For now you can check out what we thought of the game in our E3 preview.
