Vol trots heeft Ubisoft vandaag bekend gemaakt dat Assassin's Creed 2 in de Guinness World Records is opgenomen. De reden hiervoor is dat de game op de voorkant van maar liefst 127 magazines heeft gestaan en dat, dames en heren, is een wereldrecord.

"Assassin's Creed is one of our most well-loved brands," said Alain Corre managing director EMEA at Ubisoft. "The worldwide interest for the brand, coupled with the energy and creativity of our press team made for a winning combination and I am proud of receiving this Guinness World Record."

"Gaz Deaves, Editor of Guinness World Records Gamer's Edition, said: "The evidence submitted by Ubisoft was extremely thorough, with full details of every publication that featured the game. It's been a pleasure researching this category and we were pleasantly surprised that Assassin's Creed II took the record - I'm sure plenty of commentators (including myself) would have predicted another well-known game winning the title instead, and this achievement is even more impressive in view of the other 2009 releases that Assassin's Creed II was able to beat".
