A posting on Amazon.UK revealed some of the PlayStation 3 exclusive down loadable content for the upcoming Activision game Assassin's Creed 3. According to box art posted on Amazon UK, The historical action-adventure open world stealth video game will include an additional hour of gameplay on the Play Station 3.

Ubisoft has yet to unveil what the exclusive game content will be, but had previously announced during E3 that it would offer four missions as downloadable content that will be released to coincide with the launch of Assassin's Creed 3.

This is the second time an Assassin's Creed PlayStation 3 version has offered extra content. Assassin's Creed Brotherhood included the Copernicus Conspiracy mission as bonus content for PlayStation 3 gamers.

Assassin's Creed 3 is the fifth major installment of the franchise and is set before, during and after the American Revolution from 1753 to 1783. The game features a new protagonist, Connor Kenway, who is a warrior son of a Native American mother and British father. Boston and New York will be featured cities as well as the American Colonial Frontier, spanning forest, cliffs, and rivers.

The game has a release date of October 30, 2012 for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Microsoft Windows. The release date for Wii U is yet to be announced

Awesome. It's nice to see that the PS3 is getting favoured by a developer.

I hate console exclusive / timed exclusive content. But I am happy I do get it.

When will developers understand that this is only punishing gamers? Who the hell cares if you have a 360 or PS3? A multiplatform game should have the same content regardless and having timed exclsives just makes one userbase feel left out, and ultimately harms the developer. I will never support developers doing this (and if Sony has paid for this timed exclusive, shame on them) and it really puts a bad taste in my mouth.

_{im glad we get console exclusive content for this franchise since these days developers almost always gives it to the Xbox or they get content earlier than everyone else}

This is pretty cool news, it's nice to be handed a free treat every once in a while like this.

I don't really care since they made something just to mention PS3 got exclusive content.Remember Copernicus missions(PS3 exclusive) in brotherhood? They lasted less than 45 min to complete. or Vlad the Impaler prison(collector edition exclusive) which was less than 10 min and was just platforming without any NPC around.

I wish they could give us something like an exclusive small city instead.

Great to see a game company giving the PS3 users an exclusive for a change instead of it always being Xbox 360 exclusives
