A fresh batch of screens for Ubisoft Montreal's forthcoming American Revolution sim, Assassin's Creed III, and its pint-sized Vita-powered companion, Assassin's Creed 3: Liberation, have hit the worldwide Interwebs, and they're looking so dang inviting, we just had to share them with you.

Obviously the stand-outs here are the wide-open environments, much of which is new ground (as a main stage) for the series. And then of course there're reminders of a functioning day and night system, plus all the explosive action we've come to expect from the franchise since inception. Oh, and a couple of multiplayer screens and a snowman to boot!
