VGHQ today reported that they had received concept art of Assassins Creed III from a “tipster”

The apparent images show what would most likely be the games lead character, while the text suggests that the game will be taking place during the French revolution in 1789, specifically July of 1789 when the Storming of the Bastille took place. Given Assassins Creed past it would seem likely that this new lead character had a major role to play in the revolution.

Under closer examine the character in the images has a more femine look in the hair and facial structure. Of course it’s hard to tell

Whether his images are real, or simply a fake is not known, but if they are true then Assassins Creed III could be rather special indeed.
