Ubisoft has released a new trailer for Assassin’s Creed III, and it’s a good one, folks.

This trailer — dubbed as the “World Gameplay Premiere” — was unlocked through fans liking the Assassin’s Creed Facebook page. I’m sure glad that Ubisoft got what they were asking for because this trailer is pure awesome.

Connor, the protagonist of Assassin’s Creed III, is up to a number of cool things in this trailer. He stabs Red Coats in the chest with their own bayonets, he shoots men with his bow, and he dodges an attack from a bear.

Yep, a bear.

Joystiq confirms that gamers will be able to control Connor as he fights the bear seen in the trailer.

Assassin’s Creed III definitely seems to be heading in the right direction. Hopefully, we’ll hear of more assassin-on-animal fights before the game comes out on October 30 in the US and October 31 in Europe for PC, Xbox 360, and Playstation 3 platforms.

    Two OMG moment for me in that trailer. 

    First was the snow in the bear scene. when he’s walking and even the dodge roll, he’s sinks into the snow and the imprints stay. Dunno why just little details like that catch my eye.

    Second was the free running THROUGH the building. Only played AC2, not the other 2 after so i don’t know if they did it, but including interior spaces in the open world is pretty cool.

    LOL – “Or if a big bag of money told him to shut up”.

    The interior piece looks scripted to me… slow-mo as you leap out the other side?

    Where as the trailer is neat, it reminds me of a movie (The Patriot) which reminds me of a movie
    (Braveheart). If the game story runs on those lines. Ho hum. Will say for those who like the
    Assassin Creed games have fun.
