Assassins be seated – Council is in session

Assassins-Creed-Unity

Wouldn’t it be nice, if Ubisoft, say, launched a new platform for fans to discover more about the Assassin’s Creed universe? Wouldn’t it be a dream if you could be rewarded with exclusive content on there and meet and communicate directly with the team members behind the game and other members of the Creed community?

Guess what? They’ve only gone and done it.

Ubisoft have revealed the new Assassin’s Creed Council, a place for fans of the series to take advantage of direct access to the developers, get exclusive behind-the-scenes takes on the series and are updated on the most up to the minute news, direct from the game’s producers.

Members will also be able to decide the look and fate of the Council by posting their own content, participate in up/down voting on other member’s content as well as electing members to form an exclusive ‘Council Chamber’ who will win a trip to the studio, meet the developers and participate in special events.

Membership to the Council is free and you can sign up right here.
