Ubisoft is auctioning off some of its incredibly rare “very special edition” copies of Assassin's Creed III in order to raise money for charity. Only ten of these special editions have been made, and eight of them are to be put up on eBay, with the money raised going to Sydney Children's Hospital Foundation.
This is quite a bundle, too. You get a custom made trunk with copies of both Assassin's Creed III Freedom Edition on either PS3 or Xbox 360 (with all that entails, steel book case, figurine, extra game content, etc.) and Assassin's Creed Liberation, and a whole load of other stuff including a themed backpack and tomahawk keychain. Here's the full list:
·Assassin’s Creed III Backpack satchel
·Assassin’s Creed III Tomahawk USB Key
·Assassin’s Creed III Steel postcard
·Assassin’s Creed III Notebook
·Assassin’s Creed III Belt Buckle
·Assassin’s Creed III Wristband
·Assassin’s Creed III Iron on patch
·Assassin’s Creed III Steel Book
·Assassin’s Creed III Lead Figurines
·Assassin’s Creed III Tomahawk keychain
·Assassin’s Creed III Liberation keychain
·Sony PS3 ULC – Captain of the Aquila, Colonial Assassin, Red Coat Multiplayer Pack
·Sony PSVita ULC – Mysteries of the Bayou
·Assassin’s Creed III Liberation for PlayStation® Vita – Game
·Assassin’s Creed III Freedom Edition – Game
If you've got the money to spare – and this first bundle is already at AU $200.50, with four and a half days left to go – then you might as well get your limited edition game with a side helping of charitable good will.
