Assassin's Creed: Rogue PC release date, eye-tracking support confirmed
Pre-order via Uplay and get another AC title free.
Ubisoft has confirmed a 10th March PC release date for Assassin's Creed: Rogue in Europe.
The nautical adventure was originally released year for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, and served as an offering for last-gen platforms that missed out on PS4/Xbox One entry Assassin's Creed: Unity.
Rogue's story acts as a coda to the Colonial North American era covered in AC3 and AC4: Black Flag, and sees the return of various fan favourite characters.
The city of New York, a wide wilderness area based around the Appalachian mountains, and a nautical map covering the Northern Atlantic Ocean are all available to explore.
Pre-order the PC version via Uplay and you get to choose one of seven other Assassin's Creed games for free.
The digital edition also includes two bonus packs: The Siege of Fort de Sable and The Explorer.
A physical Collector's Bundle edition is also available to pre-order. It contains an artbook, lithographs, a soundtrack and bonus in-game armour and weapons.
Intriguingly, the PC version includes Tobii Tech eye-tracking support, allowing you to pan the screen just by looking to the left or right.
