News: Assassin’s Creed Liberation HD arrives on the PS3 with it also hitting the Xbox 360 on Wednesday, January 15.

Assassin’s Creed Liberation HD is now available on PS3. Completely remastered, featuring unique assassin gameplay mechanics, an immersive Assassin’s Creed storyline delivered in stunning high definition, Assassins Creed Liberation HD will also offer new content with new missions that dive deeper into Aveline’s story, as well as updated world design for more gameplay options during missions.

As Aveline, the first playable female Assassin in the Assassin’s Creed saga, the player must use their skill, instinct and weaponry – including a machete, poison-dart blowpipe, a whip and dueling pistols – to hunt down and eliminate enemies as they embark on an unforgettable journey that will take them from the crowded streets of New Orleans to voodoo-haunted swamps and ancient Mayan ruins.

The year is 1765. While the seeds of the American Revolution are being sewn in Boston and New York, Spanish forces in the South plot to seize control of Louisiana for the Templars, threatening to forever shift the balance of power in the New World. As Templars secretly take hold of the slave trade in New Orleans, Aveline de Grandpré, an assassin of mixed French and African heritage, stands ready to defend her people. She soon finds herself on an unforgettable journey that will take her from the crowded streets of New Orleans to voodoo-haunted swamps and ancient Mayan ruins. Whether eliminating her enemies with new assassination skills or luring them into cunning traps, Aveline strikes mortal fear into the hearts of those who would stand against freedom.

Taking full advantage of its new hardware, Liberation HD introduces a complete graphical overhaul, re-mastered music and sound effects, a revamped gameplay experience, and new missions that dive deeper into Aveline’s story. Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag on the PS3 and PS4 also has some exclusive content featuring Aveline.

Assassin’s Creed Liberation HD is currently available on PS3 and will be available on Xbox 360 beginning Wednesday. It will be available on both platforms for $19.99.
