Fans are highly anticipating the movie adaptation of Ubisoft's "Assassin's Creed" franchise, and it looks like the production is holding nothing back when it comes to bringing the game to life.

Entertainment Weekly has given fans a closer look at the props that will be making their way to the big screen, and the details look amazing. Michael Fassbender's character, Aguilar, is a new one created for the movie, and it looks like the Assassins will be facing off with the Templars just like in the game as well.

Production armorer Tim Wildgoose says that he drew inspiration from Islamic art and architecture when it came to making the costumes. Wildgoose was also sent a massive digital cache by Ubisoft so that he can use them as references for the movie, especially when creating the game's most iconic weapon, the Assassin wrist blade.

Wildgoose said, "Although we're designing the weapons ourselves ... there are certain things you have to stick to — the way the wrist blades work. In that sense, we were going the Ubisoft reference as a design guide. At the same time, there are assassins from the games in the film as well. In some case, we could directly copy the Ubisoft weapons onto their characters."

Though rumors have been going around that some signature weapons of the game will be in the background as Easter eggs, a lot of the weapons will be created specifically for the characters who wielded them.

Hollywood is seeing a lot of video game movies coming out recently. Though the "Warcraft" movie was not a critical success, the movie did gain a lot of money in the box office, and fans of the franchise will be waiting in anticipation for the sequel. Other games are slated to get their own movie soon are "Tomb Raider," "Life is Strange," and "Mortal Kombat."

The "Assassin's Creed" movie will hit theaters in December this year.
