A brand new trailer for Assassin’s Creed 3 has just leaked on the web, this time focusing on Desmond Miles, the current-day protagonist of the franchise, and charts his journey throughout the games that have been released in the franchise.

Assassin’s Creed III may introduce a new hero, Connor, and a new historical setting, that of the American Revolution, but the overarching story, that of Desmond, will continue, as the intrepid assassin must now face his ultimate mission, that of stopping the Templars.

A special trailer that focuses on Desmond has now leaked on the web, via AGB, and shows off his story as well as his goal, that of stopping the Templars before the world ends on December 21, 2012.

The video seems official, but it has yet to be released by Ubisoft and makes no mention of Connor, but you can expect something to be released by the French publisher soon, ahead of Assassin’s Creed 3’s launch at the end of the month.

Until then, check it out below.
