Ubisoft officially unveiled a new trailer for Assassin’s Creed 4 yesterday and today we have the unveiling of a special edition that’s exclusive to Uplay. For those of you that don’t know, UPlay is Ubisoft’s online store, similar to EA’s Origin, where you can buy games online. This version will not hit retail shelves, so if you decide you want it, you’ll have to purchase it directly from Ubisoft. I have to say it’s one of the biggest special edition releases I’ve seen yet, with a statue, steelbook, canvas prints and lithographs making up the bulk of what you’ll get in addition to the game. Here’s the full list:

  • Premium Quality 55 cm Diorama of Captain Edward on the Jackdaw’s Bow
  • Exclusive SteelBook™
  • High-quality artbook
  • The official soundtrack
  • Two Lithographs in their protective envelope
  • Two canvas prints
  • All existing additional Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag Unlockable In-Game Content, including single player missions, skins and weapons
  • Collector’s box
  • Physical pirate booty:
  • Parchment world map
  • An original Black Flag replica

Those interested in pre-ordering this special edition will have to do so through UPlay, but if you’re an Assassin’s Creed fan it seems more than worth it. Other smaller special editions will be available at GameStop and traditional game retailers, but this one takes the cake. Let me know what you think about this special edition in the comments below!
