If you’ve wanted more modern day Assassin’s Creed gameplay, you’re in luck: Assassin’s Creed 3 will feature more of Desmond in the modern day setting than any previous game in the series.

“All I can say about Desmond’s story is you’re going to experience more Desmond than you’ve ever had before,” lead writer Matt Turner told CVG. “We’re spending more time on the present than we have in past games.

“It’s a big part of our story and I don’t really want to give too many details away because I want people to experience what that is. But rest assured, you’re going to see a lot of Desmond. More so than in any past game.”

Assassin’s Creed 3 is due for release on October 31 on Xbox 360 and PS3 – Wii U and PC versions will follow. For more on the game head our to our recent Assassin’s Creed 3 interview and Assassin’s Creed 3 preview.

If Desmond gets to go full-Assassin and use the skills he’s learnt in the Animus we’ll be very happy.
