Listings on the Xbox marketplace and the Playstation store reveal plans to sell in-game currency for real world money in Assassin's Creed 3, according to Eurogamer . The listings sell set amounts of "Erudito credits," which is thought to be the currency used in Assassin's Creed 3's multiplayer mode.

Listings on the Playstation store have prices, too:

  • Assassin's Creed III 155 Erudito Pack – ($4.99)

  • Assassin's Creed III 20 Erudito Pack – ($0.99)

  • Assassin's Creed III 380 Erudito Pack – ($9.99)

  • Assassin's Creed III 50 Erudito Pack – ($1.99)

  • Assassin's Creed III 925 Erudito Pack – ($19.99)

Ubisoft haven't spoken about in-game microtransactions yet, but it's out tomorrow on consoles in the US, so we should see what we'll be able to buy with Erudito coins soon enough. Assassin's Creed 3 is due out on PC on November 20 in the US and November 23 in Europe.
