PS3 only exclusive Assassin’s Creed III Benedict Arnold content announced

PS3 only exclusive Assassin's Creed III Benedict Arnold content announced Assassin’s Creed III is the most ambitious looking game in the series and its set to hit the store shelves October 30th. Ahead of its release Ubisoft is taking the gloves off on the secret PS3 exclusive content that centers on Benedict Arnold.

Ubisoft’s scriptwriter for Assassin’s Creed III, Matt Turner sat down with the PlayStation Blog  to reveal what this content will be about. Apparently, this extra content will span four main missions for the story arc and will revolve around Benedict Arnold’s “secret plot to betray West Point and sabotage the American Revolution.”

The content is said to last hours and will offer up side missions that span the “mundane” tasks to flushing out Loyalist spies as well as working undercover for Benedict Arnold on George Washington’s orders.

Turner said that his favorite part in the Benedict Arnold mission arc was the opportunity to put in historically documented dialog that was reproduced word-for-word in some of the conversations.

In addition to the PS3 only content, those who pick up Assassin’s Creed III: Liberationfor the PS Vita will receive some cross-benefits with additional missions that take place in New York along with some rare weapons and items.
Its looking like Assassin’s Creed III for the PS3 may be the definitive version to get.
PSB: On a final note, what might have happened if General Washington hadn’t learned of Benedict Arnold’s treason and put an end to it?
A simple fact is that the Hudson River was the single most strategic body of water during the American Revolution. It essentially split the colonies in two, so whoever controlled the river controlled the supply lines. And West Point was by far the most heavily fortified area during the war for this very reason. Where the fort was built, the river narrowed and made a small ‘S’, allowing enough room for only one tall ship to pass through at a time. The Patriots built a massive chain on rafts floating across the water stopping any ship from making its way up because they were so outmatched in terms of the navy. It was the only way they could hope to hold it – and it worked.
A large portion of Revolutionary historians contend that if West Point had been captured by the British, and the chain destroyed, the Patriots would have lost the war.
