Ubisoft said today that the Palazzo Medici, commissioned by Cosimo de Medici in the mid-15th century, will be a GameStop-exclusive preorder incentive for the anticipated action adventure Assassin's Creed 2.

Assassin's Creed 2 is expected to arrive for the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC on November 17. For more on the game, check out GameSpot's previous coverage.
