gamescom 2014: Paris is your playground in Assassin’s Creed Unity

Ubisoft isn't hosting any fancy press briefing at gamescom this year, but that doesn't mean they aren't going big. As we reported last week, Ubisoft has an impressive lineup of games at the show including Far Cry 4, Tom Clancy's The Division, and Assassin's Creed Unity. And to kick things off, they've released a new trailer for that last one.

In Assassin's Creed Unity, Paris is your playground, the developer says. "From the skyward reaching spires of Notre Dame to the tunnels and slums inhabited by the city’s less fortunate, you can run, climb, and leap from nearly any surface," Ubisoft teases. Today's video shows you just what's possible with Arno as he traverses the rooftops, streets and back alleys of French Revolution era Paris.
