Is Jesper Kyd still composing Assassins's Creed 3?

Jesper Kyd is probobly one of my favourite composers and his work on the Assassin's Creed series has undoubtedly been fantastic however I haven't heard whether or not if he is working on AC3. Anyone have any idea? On wikipedia is says Lorne Balfe ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorne_Balfe)is the composer. He worked with Jesper on Revalations.

I remember something about him not doing a particular game anymore. It might've been Hitman Absolution, though. He scored the older Hitman games and they basically were what put him on the map. He's close with the I/O guys (I think he was friends with a couple of them before they all started working).

Not sure about AC3, though. Would make sense to introduce a different composer with a totally new setting, at least.

He's been composing music for Darksiders 2, which sounds awesome.

He's currently making music for a live-action scifi TV show, Heavy Metal (yes that Heavy Metal!). Also, a movie called RADICAL.

Sounds like he's got a busy plate, so I doubt he's scoring Assassin's Creed 3.

Which is fine, he's an independent dude and it means I don't have to play an AC game.

I just love his music, hopefully Lorne Balfe will do just as good a job with the music *fingers crossed*

also Jesper Kyd - Aphelion

@Grillbar: Are you sure that's by Jesper Kyd though? I mean I hope your right but I don't think 'Aphelion' is a legitimate AC3 track.
