Word dropped sometime last week on Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood when a Gamestop employee leaked the box art, and Ubisoft promised "more information next week". Well, the info in, and there's not much more to it, but now it's, you know, "official".

The critically acclaimed single player experience of Assassin’s Creed is back and better than ever as Ezio returns in a powerful struggle against the powerful Templar Order. Now a legendary Master Assassin, he must journey to Rome, center of power, greed and corruption to strike at the heart of the enemy. Defeating the corrupt tyrants entrenched there will require not only strength, but leadership, as Ezio commands an entire Brotherhood that will rally to his side. Only by working together can the Assassins defeat their mortal enemies.

And for the first time, Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood offers a never-before-seen multiplayer layer. Players can help the Templars by using Abstergo to train in the art of Assassination to eliminate the Assassins once and for all. Players can choose from a wide range of unique characters, each with their own signature weapons and assassination techniques, and match their skills against other players from all over the world in different game modes.

That last bit sounds like a Fox News Special Report in the making.

Along with the first official details, we have the first official teaser trailer. Check it out.

Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood is expected out sometime in Q4 2010.
