Assassin's Creed III confirmed for an October release this year

It was kind of expected that another Assassin's Creed game was going to come out this year (since it's now yearly like Call of Duty) but we weren't sure what kind of Assassin's Creed game to expect this year. Well, we officially know now. Ubisoft has confirmed that they are releasing the long anticipated third game as early as October this year. It may not be the last Assassin game but they said that it WILL end the story of Desmond. Apparently they have actually been working on this game, secretly, for the past three years. Other things such as new gimmicks and a new Assassin ancestor was not mentioned.

So does this excite everyone that they are finally making the third game? At least it's not another Ezio spin-off.
