In the following trailer and gameplay footage we see that the British are mostly the enemy, something I wish the game was more on the aspect that the natives were neutral in the conflict and didn't support either side more than the other. Apparently our assassin, Connor is assisted by George Washington, Ben Franklin and other founding fathers.
In the gameplay we saw the soundtrack was great and the tree movement was fluid and natural. This game focuses on fast combat rather than quick time button mashes like some other games since firearms are more common here. It is said that the game will not only cover the revolution but a 30 year period around it, going from New England forests to European metropolises.
