The UK pre-order site for Assassin’s Creed II has detailed two limited editions; the Black Ultimate Edition and the Limited Edition White Collection.

Amazon lists Black Editions for PS3 and Xbox 360 but they are currently unavailable.

The Black Ultimate Edition, a Play.com UK exclusive, will be available for the PS3 and PC, and includes the rarest premiums including 3 in-game bonus quests, exclusive development team insight in the Conspiracy, and a figure of Ezio with an upgraded cloak.
