Assassin’s Creed 2 is looking pretty nice. While the idea of Assassin’s Do These Same Tedious Missions Over And Over Again Creed getting a sequel didn’t originally thrill me, I have to say, the footage of Ezio Firenze gliding around on Leonardo da Vinci's flying machine started to warm me up to the idea. The double face stab didn’t hurt either.
But Assassin’s Creed 2 isn’t going to be out until this November, which means that there’s still quite a while until we see how it turns out. Ubisoft must be pretty confident about its reception, though, since they’ve already gone and confirmed that an Assassin’s Creed 3 is pretty likely to be on the way.
When asked during a video interview at E3, associate producer Vincent Pontbriand assured that Ubisoft is “of course” thinking about the sequel’s sequel. No specific setting has apparently been pinned down, but Pontbriand stated that it would need to be at a “pivotal moment in history.” Though it can’t take place before the events in the original game, apparently.
He also says that there “are plans” for Assassin’s Creed 2 DLC, but was unable to go into any detail.
So does this news actually surprise anyone? Both events seemed pretty likely, given that the first Assassin’s Creed sold quite well.

No surprise here.
To answer your question, no, I'm not surprised
Wait, the game isn't even out yet. Doesn't anyone else find this revolting.
I wish DLC was never invented as the number of companies that abuse it vastly outweigh those who release decent content.
Wouldn't it be fucking great if a developer said "we thought of doing this for DLC since we didn't have the resources at the time, but thought, what the hell, let's put it in the retail release".
Besides the obvious Katarmari shitstorm, The Maw just sickened me. It was like a 2 hour game that had planned, finished episodic content.
Oh god I hope so.
It's pretty much obvious it's set in Dec. 2012 as templar's will release a brainwashing beam thingy with the piece of eden and other artifacts and since the first game was set in Sep. 2012.
I thought that as well, I'm pretty sure AC was always going to be a trilogy. I'd also like to second that Victorian London would be insanely awesome.
And obviously it's going to happen. The first game sold like crazy (and, like Far Cry 2, was only really as repetitive as you made it by your decisions), the sequel is riding a massive hype train already, and the concept itself has tons of possibilities. I'd frankly be surprised if the series stopped at 3.
After AC1's disappointment, I'll be waiting for reviews on AC2 and if I wait long enough to find out that the DLC adds hours of gameplay and important story elements, then reviews need to tell me that the game is worth $80 (or whatever the price may be) instead of the usual $60. They're more likely to lose a sale than not.
