Ubisoft have revealed more details about the Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood multiplayer beta.
Those PlayStation 3 owners who pre-ordered Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood – be it standard, Auditore or Codex edition – will be able to access the multiplayer beta from October 4th.
The Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood multiplayer beta is exclusive to the PlayStation 3
The beta will give PlayStation 3 owners a taste of what to expect from The Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood multiplayer mode, allowing them to play as nine different characters. The characters include a doctor, an executioner, a priest and a courtesan which all offer alternative and unique ways for players to kill each other in the Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood multiplayer beta.
Up to eight Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood players will be able to simultaneously use new ways to assassinate their targets in two different modes:
Wanted – challenges Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood players to get the higher score by killing their assigned targets and escaping their hunters in clever ways.
Alliance – allows Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood players to compete cooperatively in teams of two, fulfil contracts and confuse enemies in tandem.
Both multiplayer modes take place different maps located in Rome and Castel Gandolfo, both new locations for Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood.
The bad news for PC gamers is that Ubisoft have confirmed that Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood will be delayed and won’t be on that particular system until the first quarter of next year. The PC version was originally scheduled to for release alongside its console brothers.

seems to me like a desperate attempt at getting in to the multi-player genre, I don’t see how they couldn’t do a better co-op type gameplay, such as Splinter Cell Conviction was able to accomplish.
Yes multi-player has over taken gaming drastically and to make a good game now you probably need a multi-player mode of some kind, but I really can’t see how this works to an extent in which it can be a feature that it is known for or keeps a player enticed for longer.
