The steady slide into more consistent game releases for the rest of the year begins this month, but for many, all eyes are on October 31st where we'll finally see a proper, new installment in the Assassin's Creed series with the third major chapter.

We've already seen plenty of the game though, but what Ubisoft has decided to focus on in today's video is the engine driving the new adventure to new heights - their proprietary AnvilNext game engine. It's honestly difficult to get a full appreciation of the tech in video form, but having seen the game up close and personal, I can attest to this being the most ambitious and visually-stunning Assassin's Creed yet.
