Assassin’s Creed IV contains 5 hours of modern day content, only has to be played for 30 minutes
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Assassin’s Creed IV will offer an extensive amount of content in its modern day setting, but gamers won’t be forced to play through it all.
In a new blog post, Ubisoft estimated a five hour playtime to experience every bit of the modern day elements. But just 30 minutes is needed to progress through the main story.
Ubisoft says players will depart from the Animus a total of five times. What’s accomplished in each session only takes three to four minutes, the publisher said.
“It’s there to progress the story because there’s this meta story that we’re telling. Why are you researching Edward? Why him specifically? What did he do that’s interesting? There is a story that connects everything together. We pretty much tried to boil it down to its most core essence because we know there are people out there who really don’t like the present day, and that’s okay. You don’t have to like it, but it’s part of the brand. For the people who like the present day and are big fans, we put in a lot of fan service and a lot of fun optional content. You get to choose if you want it or not.”

Gameware Europe’s Kickstarter for its new James Pond project has ended. The campaign had until October 20 to raise a total of £100,000, but it seemed like funds would fall well short of that goal.
Now the question is, what’s the future of James Pond? Gameware doesn’t seem to be giving up, as the company acknowledged in a new update “that there sure is still a lot of love for this plucky secret agent fish and we believe it’ll only take the right game and the right campaign to make James Pond 4 a reality.”
“But is this the end for Pond? We sure hope not! If there’s one thing we’ve learned from running this campaign it’s that there sure is still a lot of love for this plucky secret agent fish and we believe it’ll only take the right game and the right campaign to make James Pond 4 a reality. So stay tuned and we will be back with more news soon.”
