Assassin’s Creed Obstacle Course Coming Back to Comic-Con

Ubisoft announced its San Diego Comic-Con plans today, revealing that it is building another Assassin’s Creed-themed obstacle course at the convention to promote the upcoming release of Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate.

If you’re going to Comic-Con, you have the chance to run through the course, which features several tasks evocative of moves and activities from the Assassin’s Creed series. You’ll run up a wall and swing and jump from a pendulum, among other tasks. The final activity has you complete one of the series’ most iconic moves, the leap of faith. Participants will jump from a tower down to the ground to land on cushions.

This year’s course is modeled after Syndicate’s Victorian England setting, complete with a replica Big Ben tower. You can go try the course at Comic-Con next week from 10 AM to 6 PM from Thursday through Saturday and from 10 AM to 5 PM on Sunday.

Attendees can also try out Ubisoft’s upcoming shooter The Division. Competitive multiplayer is playable at the Xbox Lounge.

The publisher is also holding two panels. The Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate panel takes place next Friday from 2 to 3, and it will feature the voice actors of both main characters as well as the creative director of the game. An animated short will premiere during the panel. The Toy Soldiers: War Chest panel is on Thursday from 12 to 1 and will feature discussion about the inclusion of G.I. Joe and He-Man figures in the game.

Last year, Ubisoft set up an Assassin’s Creed obstacle course based on Assassin’s Creed Unity. You can check out video of it here.

Comic-Con runs July 9-12 in San Diego. Keep an eye on GameSpot for all video game news from Comic-Con as it becomes available next week.
