The Brotherhood set for 4 editions in March

Last week we learned that Ubisoft’s praised Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood was destined to launch on PC on March 17th in the US and on the 18th in the UK. Today, we not only get the official word, but also info we had hoped would have been included in the actual reveal seven days ago: what editions there will be and what’s to be included.
