The Rome-set, multiplayer-enabled follow-up to Assassin's Creed 2 due out this fall is officially titled "Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood" and slated to arrive on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, publisher Ubisoft has confirmed.

The confirmation came about after Kotaku was provided with promotional GameStop boxart for the game, with Ubisoft later saying that it "confirms the authenticity of this image and will provide more information next week." Destructoid obtained a high-quality scan of the art, which notes that GameStop pre-orders get an "exclusive multiplayer character."

I don't personally see how you can turn this title into an online game.

Annoying races? Check. One-dimensional combat? Check. Terrible jumping puzzles? Check. Tedious missions? Check. Tedious collections? Check. Awful story line that makes no sense? Check.

Yup guys, think we got a hit on our hands.

For the record I kind of enjoyed Assassin's Creed 2 .... until I played it for about 6+ hours and realized I was wasting my time and went and played Uncharted 2 instead. No desire to ever go back and play it.

Isn't it a little quick to get a new game with MP out by this fall??? Unless they were working side by side with the 2nd game I can't understand how a new game would come out this quick.

  They're using the same engine. This isn't a direct sequel, it's more like a spinoff. AC2.5 if you will. : ArcKnight
  - And this game was most likely started before ACII's development finished. : IndigoAK

A new entry only a year after the previous game? I know publishers love making money and all, and I love playing (most) of their games, but I believe a gap of at least two years should exist between entries in any series. I feel it gives dev teams more time to be creative with what they're going to do next, and it also keeps me, the consumer, from getting burnt out on their worlds.

One of the theories about how to make this a MP game was effectively a clone of The Ship: everyone has one target, and everyone is a target of someone else.

The controls and flow of the AC game engine might not fit so well with that. I am interested to see what they do with it though.
