The next installment in the Assassin's Creed franchise will be unleashed on October 31 and Ubisoft promises a whole new experience for fans of the genre.

Although the developer already offered details on Assassin's Creed III storyline, as well as info on Connor's new abilities and the range of weapons he can use, little has been told on the multiplayer side of the game.

Ubisoft released a trailer back in August, which presented two of the seven multiplayer modes that will be available in the final version of the game.

Today, Ubisoft released a new multiplayer trailer that shows off more details on characters, abilities, perks and modes.

There will be no less than seven Assassin's Creed III multiplayer modes, which are detailed below:

- Wanted Mode (4 to 8 players): the main objective is to kill designated targets and avoid being killed by your pursuers. - Manhunt Mode (4 to 8 players, 2 teams): each team takes turns pursuing the other team. - Deathmatch Mode: (4 to 8 players): find and kill assigned targets and avoid being killed by your pursuers. Players compete in a small area without triggering chases or using the compass. - Artifact Assault Mode (4 to 8 players): the main objective is to score by stealing the enemy's artifact from their base and carrying it back to yours. - Domination Mode (4 to 8 players): work together to capture territories and defend them from the opposing team to score. Fill the scoring gauge fast to win the game. - Assassinate Mode: (4 to 8 players): Identify, acquire and assassinate the target of your choice. Avoid being killed by other players. - Wolfpack Mode is a co-op mode where 1 to 4 players work together to maximize their score by eliminating hordes of enemies.

Players will get to choose from 14 multiplayer characters, each unique abilities and perks: The Lady Maverick, The Independent, The Preacher, The Silent Shadow, The Night Stalker, The Pioneer, The Mountebank, The Carpenter, The Commander, The Huntsman, The Robber, The Hessian, The Bear and The Strong Man.

Seven multiplayer maps will be included in the original Assassin's Creed III game, but more will be added via monthly DLCs. For more details on the abilities and perks of each multiplayer character, check out the video below and Ubisoft's site.
