Top 5 Settings We’d Like to See in Assassin’s Creed III

Assassin's Creed III Location Speculation

Now that Ubisoft has confirmed Assassin's Creed III will be launching later this year, all that's left to find out is… well, everything, actually. Release date aside, we've heard shockingly little about what exactly the game will entail. So far, all we know for certain is that Assassin's Creed III won't feature Ezio or Altair, instead putting us in the shoes of another one of Desmond's ancestors.

Of course, not knowing anything about the game is only a minor hurdle for your average fan, and speculation has been predictably rampant. Folks have been busy combing through the ending of Revelations looking for clues as to where the franchise is headed next. At the moment, the most popular theory is that the game will be set during the American Revolution, but it's really anyone's guess.

We figured we'd contribute to the discussion by throwing our own theories into the mix. Here are five settings we'd like to see in Assassin's Creed III, along with an honest appraisal of their chances.
