Ubisoft has unveiled a new Assassin’s Creed title for the DS.

As in the Xbox 360 and PS3 sequel, in Discovery the player takes on the role of Ezio Auditore di Firenze, an assassin and nobleman from Florence, Italy.

The DS game will focus on an untold part of Ezio’s story as he travels to Spain to rescue fellow assassin’s being held by the Inquisition. However, he soon discovers a Templar plot to sail West and discover the New World.

In gameplay terms, we can apparently expect “exhilarating speed and breathtaking acrobatics,” as well as “intuitive controls” and the ability to put your own ugly mug in the game via the DSi’s camera.

“Assassin’s Creed II: Discovery is a great way for fans to experience a new chapter of the Assassin’s Creed II storyline,” said Ubi’s John Parkes.

“We think Nintendo fans will be impressed with all the unique features in the game designed specifically for Nintendo DSi and Nintendo DS.”

Assassin’s Creed 2: Discovery is due for release on DS on 20 November at an SRP of £29.99 GBP.
