Assassin's Creed 2 PC release date revealed

PC News | System specs also unveiled.
Initially due alongside its console brothers, the PC version of Assassin's Creed II has eluded gamers until now, with Ubisoft confirming that the belated release date will be on 16 March. To sweeten the deal, the game will be packing in the title's two downloadable add-ons.

PC gamers will be able to purchase two versions of the game upon release: standard edition and a "Black Edition" that is exclusive to digital distribution outlets. Both editions will pack the Battle of Forli and Bonfire of the Vanities add-ons at no extra cost, with Black Edition buyers also getting unspecified "additional content" thrown into the mix.
