Here’s Your First Look at the Boxart for Assassin’s Creed Unity

Historical curiosity.

Assassin’s Creed Unity looks absolutely amazing. The first truly next generation Assassin’s Creed game looks like it will change the rules of an Assassin’s Creed game, and there’s already a whole lot of hype about it.

So naturally, the new boxart is going to fuel that hype even further. Especially when you consider that the artwork released alongside it has Napoleon and King Louis XVI on it! Napoleon! And King Louis XVI! I don’t know about you guys, but as a history buff, that announcement makes me hard, and makes me excited at how these two major historical figures may be integrated into the main narrative. Hopefully, it’s more like Assassin’s Creed II and Leonardo da Vinci, or Assassin’s Creed IV and Blackbeard, than Assassin’s Creed III and Benjamin Franklin.

Check out the boxart for yourself and tell us what you think in the comments. Are you excited for this game? What system will you get it on?
