You must manipluate switches and break through obstacles in ways that will make you question whether what goes up must, indeed, come down.

Assassin’s Creed Revelations (Canadian) Pre-Order Bonuses for Retailers

Sep 26, 2011

In a way to reduce confusion, Ubisoft’s Canada office sent us the details of the Retailer specific Pre-Order Bonuses. Now I’m not sure (yet) if the Best Buy / Amazon pre-order deals will carry over to  U.S.

Some North America News though: Assassin’s Creed 1 will be available with the first million Assassin’s Creed Revelations PS3 copies. This number includes all pre-orders. The game will be on the same Blu-Ray disc. No separate master nor PSN voucher.
