So I was scrolling through GameInformer like usual when I stumbled upon this article. It's a picture of Assassin's Creed 3, but no one knows if it's real or not. Most people are leaning towards that it must be fake but you know how things get leaked early? Well, some comments on this article state that Ubisoft is going to announce the next Assassin's Creed in May. People even said that 2 symbols at the end of Brotherhood hint that it could be during The French Revolution. I'll post 2 of the comments below.    So it either could be really good fan art, or the next Assassin's Creed game in Paris,

So here are two of the comments:

I think the French Revolution is a good thing to go with, but something about that picture doesn't seem legit to me. 

I'd really be happy in France with the next game. I was actually hoping for either Russia, England or France so it's awesome by me! But something about the art on that doesn't look very Assassin's Creed-y. They don't usually show off such mystical things in the art... the "mysterious" part of the game is always kept very secret. I mean look at the end of AC2. Who the hell seen that coming?

Fake. I think the next will still have Ezio as the playable character. And if you play the Da Vinci DLC, it gives you hints as to where the series is heading next.

I'm going to say "Fake". It doesn't look half bad, but I've been fooled before by better looking pictures. 

It's fake. The fact that the picture tries really hard to look official is what gives it away. That's a movie poster, not something Ubisoft would do for a sequel that we all know is coming.

I'm calling fake on it too guys, but it is pretty awesome.

Probably fake, but I would be totally okay with it being real.

Is there actually going to be a game called Assassin's Creed 3? I know back when the first one came out they were hyping it up as a trilogy, but I think Brotherhood kind of throw a wrench in things.

fake, its on deviant art, the dude also makes other poster fan art that is well done

I'm calling fan art.

I'd prefer old fashioned london, or Egypt. But this is pretty cool if its real.

I WANT TO CLIMB THE EIFFEL TOWER



(Even though the tower wasn't even there during the revolution, I still want to climb it.)

If there was going to be a new Assassin's Creed this year wouldn't they have announced it by now? (Same for a new Call of Duty)
Do games get announced at E3 and come out the same year?

I call fake, this rumor ran around before, but right after 2 shipped, and Montreal said first that they weren't sure what they were going to do, and then that this probably wouldn't be it. Seems like someone took that rumor and ran with it. Also, the background looks too blurry to be legit and the light thing by the dude's face looks really poorly done.

Built about 100 years later after the time period depicted.

That's a very logical conclusion that AC III is the French Revolution for reasons stated in the OP, but also because I remember Michael Pachter having a slip-up on The Bonus Round around the time AC II was coming out where he said, with a lot of confidence, that it took place during the French Revolution till someone corrected him.

Gotta be fake.  If that's gonna be the next Assassin's Garb, someone needs to get back to the drawing board STAT.

I don't think it's real.  Part of the reason being the color scheme of the poster.  The color scheme of every AC thing so far has been light to my knowledge.

I'm going to guess that it is a fake. Regardless, I'm going to go play some Assassin's Creed 2.

The general rule of thumb is that it's fake until proven true.

It's fake.  Read the guy's DeviantArt page for it.

I'm calling fake, but goddamn would it be awesome if it was true. The French Revolution has never been explored, and it's one of the bloodiest chapters in European history.

" I WANT TO CLIMB THE EIFFEL TOWER(Even though the tower wasn't even there during the revolution, I still want to climb it.) "

Definitely fake.

I like the gold color. First game was blue, second was red, and gold seems like a good fit.
