His eagle vision has greatly improved with age and experience, and now he can follow the path of where his enemies have walked, as well as see his targets light up gold, and enemies red. In the interests of being delightfully vague and not giving anything away, Desmond will again delve into the memories of his ancestor Ezio Auditore da Firenze and also those of Altaïr Ibn La’Ahad (the super bad-ass-assasin from the original game.)Įzio has moved on considerably from the carefree young man we met on the rooftops of Florence at the beginning of the second game, and is now definitely in the twilight of his…er, assassining. The developers seem to have been quite careful not to really go into “what happened” so that if you did want to go back and play Assassin’s Creed 2 after this, you’ll still have some mystery to uncover.

And certain issues need to be fixed stat, or Desmond might not make it through this adventure. The story begins with Desmond, and continues directly on from the rather “out there” ending of Assassin’s Creed 2. Note: as a massive fan of the previous games, I appreciate that people get quite attached to the story and characters, so whilst ‘nothing is true, everything is permitted’, I will do my absolute best to ensure that no spoilers are included in this review. Both previous games have been massive titles, and from the looks of the opening credits, Ubisoft have thrown enormous resources from what seems like every studio they own globally at putting Assassin’s Creed: Revelations together.Ī long time coming, Revelations was a massive press-hype dealio at both and Gamescom this year, and it is with great anticipation that we at Gameskeys finaly got into the 360.
