The Art Of Assassin's Creed III


Imagine creating a whole world.  Try to wrap your mind around tackling such a task.  Picture designing buildings, characters, clothing, geography and everything else that constitutes a populated world.

Daunting?  You bet.  But that's just what the people behind Assassin's Creed II did and in Titan Books new The Art Of Assassin's Creed III you get to share in the creative process.

Pages are packed with production art, character designs and each and every part necessary to create a world-right down to the smallest detail.

Andy McVitte guides readers through page after page of stunning art, providing descriptive text and expounding what it took to create a game spanning the centuries.  

The beautifully rendered oversize hardbound book demonstrates the talent involved to produce art for a breakaway hit video game that has sold in excess of 38 million copies.  After looking through the book it's easy to see why.
