The first trailer for 20th Century Fox’s live action Assassin’s Creed film debuts, detailing the many changes from Ubisoft’s source material the movie has made.
Expectations for the Assassin’s Creed franchise have likely never been higher. In prior years, the fact that Ubisoft boldly claimed that no Assassin’s Creed games in 2016 would make the upcoming movie even better by comparison might not have been difficult to justify. However, hot on the heels of an Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate game that breathed new life into the series, such a statement has served only to increase fan expectation for the Assassin’s Creed film.
Ubisoft and film producer 20th Century Fox have been hard at work maintaining that expectation and translating it into palpable anticipation, between the tantalizing release schedule of movie stills or the $1,200 Assassin’s Creed movie ticket combo that includes a replica crossbow. Today, however, the Assassin’s Creed movie marketing endeavor began in earnest, as 20th Century Fox released the debut trailer for the upcoming film based upon Ubisoft’s incredibly popular stealth-based adventure game.
