Assassin's Creed 3 (http://www.joystiq.com/game/assassins-creed-3/) for PC will allegedly launch in November, according to a Eurogamer publishing informant. Eurogamer reports it was tipped about the delay by a source, who provided a promotional image for the Czech Republic (http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2012-06-21-assassins-creed-3-pc-delayed) featuring the November date. Ubisoft told Eurogamer in follow-up, "The Windows PC release date is still to be announced."

Awkward. Okay, we asked Ubisoft to clarify the PC release date and the publisher told us: "Ubisoft does not comment on rumors or speculation." So ... it's a rumor that the PC version was expected to launch October 30 (http://www.joystiq.com/2012/02/15/assassins-creed-3-arrives-on-october-30/) with the console version?

When it comes to Ubisoft, not having a staggered release between console and PC (http://www.joystiq.com/tag/ubisoft,pc,delay) would be a huge surprise at this point.http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif (http://www.joystiq.com)Rumor: Assassin's Creed 3 PC delayed to November (http://www.joystiq.com/2012/06/22/rumor-assassins-creed-3-pc-delayed-to-november/) originally appeared on Joystiq (http://www.joystiq.com) on Fri, 22 Jun 2012 18:15:00 EST.

Guess their DRM coding is taking longer than expected.

Yawn... Late PC game. Again.

2003 called, it wants this back.

Ubisoft seems to do this regularly. I think the first Assassin's Creed was one of the most pirated PC games ever.

Not a big deal for me nowadays. I can wait. I just get upset when there is no PC version, or it is announced much later.

The Dark SOuls PC release for example....cool but way too late.

WOuld like to have seen a Dragon's Dogma PC version. Wn't be surprised if it suddenly appears eventually.

I'd be VERY shocked if this were the case. In fact I'd be surprised if it were in the top 20.
