Ubisoft will release Assassin's Creed III on October 30, it said during a call with investors on Wednesday.

Arriving less than one year after the release of Assassin's Creed: Revelations, Assassin's Creed III is expected to star an all-new protagonist in an experience Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot said will be "the biggest launch in Ubisoft history."

Guillemot explained that the developer has been working diligently on the new game for three years, describing what the team has achieved in that time as "fabulous."

While Ubisoft has yet to reveal where exactly Assassin's Creed III will take place, the game's setting has been speculated to be anywhere from Ancient Egypt to the American Revolution. Imagine performing Assassin's Creed's trademark Leap of Faith off the Great Pyramid of Giza. Of course, Assassin's Creed III's storyline will also finally be bringing the story arc of the main Assassin's Creed trilogy to its long-awaited conclusion.

Ubisoft has not said what platforms for which it will release Assassin's Creed III, but it will most likely be coming to Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC (and maybe Wii U).
