The first actual screenshots from Assassin's Creed III have just been leaked on the web, confirming the cover and artwork we saw earlier this week.

Assassin's Creed III is eagerly awaited by lots of fans from all over the world, largely because it introduces a new protagonist and a fresh historical setting.

After getting to see the first actual artwork and details from the game earlier this week, another batch of images were leaked, this time in the form of some screenshots from the upcoming action adventure game.

As you can see above and in the gallery below, the new Assassin will be hunted down by British forces throughout the game. It also seems that combat will be seriously overhauled, as swords are no longer used during the American Revolution, when the action takes place.

The first official details will be revealed next week by Ubisoft but, until then, you're more than welcome to check out the screenshots below, via AllGamesBeta.
