Assassin's Creed 3 has taken the revolution to North American televisions with a new commercial that personalizes the impending American Revolution.

The trailer, which premiered Wednesday night during the NFL season opener, is set to "Coming Home" by Diddy featuring Skylar Grey. As the song plays, a montage sets the stage for war in 1770s America, in which Assassin's Creed 3's protagonist, Connor, will play a pivotal role.

"It seems we are well and truly at war," says an unidentified Scottish narrator. "I only hope this madness is soon ended."
