The setting is 1191 AD. The Third Crusade is
tearing the Holy Land apart. You, Altair, intend
to stop the hostilities by suppressing both sides
of the conflict. You are an Assassin, a warrior
shrouded in secrecy and feared for your
ruthlessness. Your actions can throw your
immediate environment into chaos, and your
existence will shape events during this pivotal
moment in history.
As an assassin you will master the skills,
tactics, and weapons of historyâs deadliest and
most secretive clan of warriors. Plan your
attacks, strike without mercy, and fight your way
to escape.
* Four PC-exclusive investigation missions make
the game an even better experience than its
console predecessors, including the Rooftop Race
Challenge, a race to a specified location and the
Archer Stealth Assassination Challenge, where the
player must assassinate all archers in a certain
zone to help out fellow Assassins.
* Experience a living, breathing world in which
all your actions have consequences. Crowds react
to your moves and will either help or hinder you
on your quests.
* Eliminate your targets wherever, whenever, and
however. Stalk your prey through detailed and
historically accurate environments. Scale
buildings, mount horses, blend in with crowds.
* This game immerses you in the Holy Land of the
12th century, featuring life-like graphics,
ambiance, and the detail of a living world.
* Find action blended with fluid and precise
animations. Use a wide range of medieval weapons,
and face your enemies in sword fight duels.
