Kotaku's scooped a photo of what's apparently the placeholder box art for GameStop's shelf displays, confirming the game's title, multiplayer gameplay and other details.
The front clearly has the game's title - Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood - just as a previously Ubisoft-registered domain had suggested, which Ezio taking centre stage followed by what would seem to be the 'brotherhood' in question.
But it's the blurb on the back of the box that's really interesting. "Live and breathe as Ezio, now a legendary master assassin, in his struggle against the Templar order. Lead your own brotherhood of Assassins and strike at the heart of the enemy. Rome," it reads.
Even more revealing: "And for the first time, take part in an innovative multiplayer layer allowing you to embody an assassin of your choosing and define their killing style."
It goes on to promise: "A never-before-seen online multiplayer experience. Lead your own brotherhood of assassins, as Ezio, and conquer Rome."
A bonus sticker also teases a multiplayer character offered as a pre-order exclusive through GameStop.
That's surely as near to official confirmation as you're going to get without word from Ubisoft itself.
