Who knew Assassin's Creed's Ezio was this well socially connected?

In this latest teaser spot, Ubisoft gives us a look at three of the factions you'll encounter in Assassin's Creed II, each of which will offer Ezio different services and skills. Mercenaries will teach you how to fight, while the Thieves will teach you how to climb... and also let you hit on them, apparently. The Courtesons, led by Paola and her ample bosom (discretion much?) will teach Ezio how to blend in, walk with the crowds. 

If I get anything from this trailer is that Ubisoft is definitely trying to offer more in terms of gameplay variety and story for Assassin's Creed II. Of course, if the game just comes down to three types of missions -- fighting, climbing, and blending in -- we have an issue. 

We'll know more when Assassin's Creed II hits shelves on November 17.

Well, glad to see they're trying to introduce more variety into the game. The first one was very fun, if slightly redundant by the end. I hope they'll be able to keep things interesting this time around.

Love it! It's going to be a huge improvememnt on what AC1 left out. And it's great that they have progression incorporated throughout, he just doesn't start out awesome like Altair. Because we can see how it began and develop skills along with Ezio.

Add my stamp to the sold column on this one. Every time I see something new for this game, it gets me more and more excited.

It's always gangs, gangs, gangs these days. Did everyone making video games in the last 4 years get dragged to West Side Story by their wife or something?

The ending (in both this trailer and the last) sells it for me every time! lol

She's gonna teach how to blend in? Her? That chick? The one with the bosom that surely attracts about a thousand glances and second looks a day?

Yeah, okay.

Really looking forward to this game, seriously. It's actually one of the main reasons I'm getting a PS3, now that I think about it.
