Amazon has updated its Video Games Live page with details on how to get a seat for the free event, scheduled for Saturday July 20 8PM at the San Diego Civic Center.

This is expected to be a well-attended event, which means get ready to stand in another line. But if you’re not ready to risk losing a seat to chance, there will be other ways to score entry into the event, and they’re both tied into the Jackdaw boat docked behind the Convention Center to promote Ubisoft’s upcoming Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag video game.

The first way is to participate in a “swashbuckling, photo-snapping” scavenger hunt on both Friday July 19 and Saturday July 20, starting at the Jackdaw. The second will be to pre-order Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag from Ubisoft at the Jackdaw ship – easy, since it’s a likely pre-buy for video game fans anyway.

Both ways are while supplies last, so you’ll want to do this as soon as you’ve hit land landed in San Diego.
