ASSASSIN’S CREED is one of the most popular franchise of all time. Its success has been built through years with famous titles such as Assassin’s Creed Syndicate, Assassin’s Creed Unity, Assassin’s Creed Black Flag etc.
Gameplay
Assassin’s Creed: Identity primarily takes place in Florence and Rome during the Renaissance. New locations, and items, can be unlocked by playing through the game. The database returns, offering entries on historic monuments, characters and events.
The missions in Identity center around the Crows gang and the First Civilization. Missions are short and varied, generated from sixteen different mission types. Players can choose to hire friends and other players to help complete objectives.
Identity allows players to train, develop and equip two different Assassins. Players can choose from four classes: Berserker, Shadow Blade, Trickster and Thief. Each class has its own strengths and weaknesses. Assassins can be customized with unique outfits and color variations. Using the forging system, players can create new items and use it to customize their Assassin.
Identity supports tap-to-move, dual virtual stick controls and gamepads. Running on the Unity engine, the game features custom-made HD textures, shaders and models, as based on the Assassin’s Creed console games. It also includes a dynamic crowd system and lighting, as well as night, day and weather presets.
In order to effectively solve most enemies, the Kill Token can be gained by killing guards, which increases the meter by one bar; conversely, every injury in combat decreases the meter by one bar. Represented by a meter with three tiers. When the meter upon being completely filled, it grants Lo Sparviero the ability to execute the target.
Trivia
- The film was originally named «Secret Project Number Three» by UbiWorkshop.
- A variation of Octavian de Valois’ death is shown in the introduction of the short film. There, Octavian and several of his men held Pantasilea Baglioni hostage in the Roman Forum, and were attacked by Ezio, who was wearing his usual Assassin robes. Ezio would then strike from above and stab Octavian with his Hidden Blade
Octavian’s final words also differed from the ones spoken in Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood, saying that he only played a small part in Cesare’s plans, rather than him admitting his desire for respect.
.
- Juan Borgia’s murder appears to have taken place in the Tiber Island headquarters. Whether this is considered canon or not is yet to be confirmed.
- The building where Oliverotto and Vitellozzo’s dinner supposedly took place appears to be the Borgia Tower nearest to the Caserma di Alviano that kept Bartolomeo d’Alviano’s forces at bay, until Ezio destroyed the building. However, this causes conflict in the timeline, as Ezio destroyed and had the Assassin Order occupy the tower in 1500, while the murders of both generals took place in 1502.
- The film shows one of the few instances where Cesare was seen using a crossbow, utilizing it to subdue Oliverotto. The crossbow Cesare possessed in the film had a unique design, embedded with a small metal decal of a woman.
- The film is included with the Assassin’s Creed: Lineage Blu-ray disc.

Plot
In 1492 Andalusia, during the Granada War, Aguilar de Nerha is accepted into the Assassins Brotherhood. He is assigned to protect Prince Ahmed de Granada from the Knights Templar. In 1986, adolescent Callum «Cal» Lynch finds his mother killed by his father, Joseph, a modern-day Assassin. Gunmen led by Alan Rikkin, CEO of the Templars’ Abstergo Foundation, arrive to capture Joseph, who convinces his son to escape.
In 2016, Cal is sentenced to death for murdering a pimp, but his execution is faked by the Abstergo Foundation, which then takes him to their research facility in Madrid. He is told that the Templars are searching for the Apple of Eden, in order to eliminate violence by using the Apple’s code to control humanity’s free will. Sofia, Alan’s daughter and the head scientist, reveals that Cal is a descendant of Aguilar, the last person confirmed to be in possession of the Apple. She puts Cal in the Animus, a machine which allows him to relive (and the scientists to observe) Aguilar’s genetic memories, so that Abstergo can learn what he did with the Apple.
In 15th-century Spain, Aguilar/Callum and his partner Maria are deployed to rescue Ahmed, who has been kidnapped by the Templar Grand Master Tomas de Torquemada, to coerce Ahmed’s father, Sultan Muhammad XII, to surrender the Apple. Aguilar and Maria intercept the Templars, but are overpowered and captured by Torquemada’s enforcer, Ojeda. Cal is quickly pulled out of the Animus by Sofia.
Cal encounters other Assassin descendants held captive at the facility, most of whom are suspicious of his motives, with the exception of Moussa, the descendant of an 18th-century Haitian Assassin named Baptiste and a key leader. Cal begins experiencing hallucinations, dubbed «the Bleeding Effect», of both Aguilar and Joseph. Cal and Sofia build a rapport during their sessions; she confides that her mother was likewise murdered by an Assassin, sharing his hatred of the Brotherhood of which his father is a member.
Back in the Animus, Aguilar and Maria are scheduled for execution but he manages to free them, leading to a rooftop chase in which they escape through an Assassin «Leap of Faith». Cal’s mind reacts violently to the session and he is temporarily paralyzed. When Cal learns that his father is also at the facility, he confronts Joseph over his mother’s death. Joseph informs him that the Bleeding Effect will allow modern Cal to possess Aguilar’s combat abilities. He also learns that his mother was an Assassin, and she chose to die by Joseph’s hand rather than be forced into the Animus. Unconvinced, Cal vows to destroy the Assassins by finding the Apple. Meanwhile, Alan is pressured by a Templar Elder, Ellen Kaye, to shut down the multibillion-dollar Animus Project because they have already «won … people no longer care about their civil liberties … they’re content to follow», leading Sofia to question her father’s true intentions.
Reaffirmed by his encounter with his father, Cal willingly enters the Animus once again, whereupon Aguilar and Maria ambush a meeting between Muhammad and Torquemada. They succeed in killing the Templars and retrieving the Apple, though Ojeda captures Maria in order to force Aguilar to surrender it. Instead, Maria chooses death, and stabs herself on Ojeda’s blade. Aguilar kills him and escapes through another Leap, the force of which causes the Animus to violently malfunction. Aguilar gives the Apple to Christopher Columbus, who promises to take it to his grave. When Moussa and the modern Assassin prisoners start a riot in order to escape, Alan orders the facility purged. Abstergo security kills Joseph and most of the other prisoners.
Cal stands in the Animus chamber and is met with the projections of a number of his Assassin ancestors, including Aguilar, Arno Dorian, Joseph and his mother, while Sofia glimpses the projection of an Assassin identical in appearance to her. Persuaded by his mother, Cal embraces his Assassins’ Creed and, having fully assimilated Aguilar’s memories and abilities, joins Moussa and two other surviving Assassins in escaping the facility.
Having retrieved the Apple from Columbus’ burial vault, Alan and his followers converge at a ceremony in a Templar sanctuary in London to celebrate their triumph. Inside the sanctuary, a disillusioned Sofia meets with Cal, who has come to take the Apple, and she reluctantly allows him to act. Cal retrieves the Apple, but kills Alan to do it. While Sofia vows revenge against Cal, the Assassins depart, vowing to once again protect the Apple from the Templars.

Penalty for disobedience
Middle Ages
- «Your selfish act beneath Jerusalem placed us all in danger! Worse still, you brought the enemy to our home! Every man we lost today was lost because of you!»
- ―Al Mualim reprimanding Altaïr, 1191.-
Al Mualim forcefully reminding Altaïr of the Creed
On most occasions, the breaking of one or more of the tenets of the Creed led to the execution of the involved Assassin, though there have been exceptions. Before the restructuring of the Order, Levantine Assassins were known to take their own life if necessary rather than compromise the Brotherhood. [citation needed]
During the Siege of Masyaf in 1176, Ahmad Sofian was captured and interrogated by the Saracens about the identity of the Assassin who infiltrated the camp. Ahmad broke and gave the name of Umar Ibn-La’Ahad. This resulted in him breaking the third tenet of the Creed, as Umar was executed for this, and though he was spared Ahmad could not bear the shame and guilt and took his own life, but not before begging the young Altaïr for forgiveness. Umar himself also technically broke the first and third tenets as well by killing a Saracen nobleman, who was not his target and which resulted in the Saracens electing to continue the siege unless the killer surrendered himself, which would have resulted in many Assassin deaths. Umar elected to give himself up for execution to save his fellow Assassins.
In 1191, Altaïr broke all three tenets during an important mission at Solomon’s Temple. By murdering an innocent, an old man whom he thought could have alerted the guards, and revealing himself to Robert de Sablé, Altaïr inevitably led the Templars back to Masyaf, jeopardizing not only his own safety, but the livelihood of the entire Brotherhood in the resulting attack.
Upon his return to Masyaf, Altaïr was publicly chastised and «executed» via stabbing as punishment by his Master. However, the execution was only an illusion, as Al Mualim wished to grant him a second chance. Instead, Altaïr was merely stripped of all his weapons and equipment, and demoted to the lowest rank of novice, forced to re-earn his rank through the Hunt for the Nine.
Following his return from exile, Altaïr decided to eliminate those of Abbas Sofian’s followers who had compromised the Brotherhood by harming civilians, while leaving alive those that still lived by the Creed.
Renaissance
- «Our tenets are clear. One of our brothers has decided to disobey them and must pay with his life.»
- ―An Assassin of Jerusalem.
In 1498, Perotto Calderon also broke the tenets of the Creed out of his love for the Templar Lucrezia Borgia and their newborn son. He broke his cover as a spy amongst the Borgia, compromising the Brotherhood in the process, and killed several of his fellow Assassins in an effort to steal the Shroud of Eden they protected, which he thought could cure his child’s deformities.
Though he was successful, a team of Assassins later tracked Perotto down, and executed him as punishment.
Around 1511, one of Ezio’s Ottoman apprentices broke the first tenet after mistaking a cleric for the Templar Cyril of Rhodes and rashly assassinating him. Instead of punishing him, Ezio ordered him to reflect on his mistake and gave him the chance to redeem himself when they confronted Cyril again. Ironically, Ezio himself broke the first tenet indirectly during his visit to Derinkuyu, when he ignited the Templars’ cache of gunpowder to destroy it, resulting in a firestorm that engulfed the underground city and killed many of its civilians.
During this time, an Assassin of Jerusalem broke the Creed, and the Ottoman Assassins were asked to intervene. Despite his treachery, the other Assassins of his guild asked that he be executed covertly with a crossbow.
French Revolution
In 1793, the French Assassin Council expelled Arno Dorian from the Brotherhood for repeatedly assassinating targets without consulting them. He was accused of compromising the Brotherhood and pursuing a personal vendetta. However the expulsion was temporary as the Council decided to reinstate the young Assassin years later, after he had matured and demonstrated true fidelity to the Creed.
Геймплей
Игра сделана на новой версии движка Anvil Engine. Будет возможность владеть двумя оружиями и выполнять цепь убийств. Движения ударов будут полностью изменены, из-за чего Коннор будет похож на «хищника». У Коннора будет большое разнообразие оружия, включая томагавк, пистолет с ударно-кремниевым замком, лук и стрелы, Шэнбяо (дротик на веревке, позволяющий подвешивать врагов) и, конечно же, скрытый клинок, который может повернуться и превратиться в кинжал.
Игрок сможет забираться на деревья и другие естественные элементы в дополнение к обычным городским структурам. Будут загадки, подобные Истине, но они будут не от Объекта 16. Будут присутствовать контекстно-зависимые действия, такие как использование врагов как живые щиты. Убрали систему захвата на противнике. Её заменили на автоматизированный выбор врагов, что изменяет боевую динамику.
Дезмонд вновь будет переживать «значительные события», но уже на Анимусе 3.0. В заданиях будут контрольные точки, что позволит не проходить заново все задание, чтобы получить 100% синхронизации. Карта мира будет включать Бостон, Нью-Йорк и большую сельскую местность. В сельской местности будет проходить примерно 30% игры и она будет местоположением многих событий в игре. Сельская местность по площади будет приблизительно в 1.5 раз больше, чем Рим в Братстве крови.
Также будет присутствовать и кооперативный режим, называемый «Волчья стая». По словам Ubisoft Annecy, для многопользовательского режима был придуман сюжет.
Development
The series was initially planned as an expansion of the travels of the Assassin Ezio Auditore, but it was moved to an entirely new setting and character to provide greater artistic freedom to the writers. Despite this, the comic still utilized the long-standing feud between the Assassins and Templars for the basis of its story.
Inspiration for The Fall came from the book The Manchurian Candidate by Richard Condon. The main character, Captain Bennett Marco, was brainwashed by the Communist Party to act as their sleeper agent, acting on their orders whenever he saw the Queen of Diamonds playing card. In The Fall, Abstergo programmed Daniel Cross to kill the Mentor when the moment of opportunity presented itself.
Ассасины и гашиш никак не связаны
Одно из расхожих мнений об ассасинах состоит в том, что они, во-первых, использовали гашиш в своих обрядах и тренировках, а во-вторых заслужили благодаря этому увлечению и свое название. Орден и вправду назывался «хашишины», но это связано либо с именем их лидера, Хасана, либо происходит от их уничижительного прозвища — «травоеды», то есть нищенствующие. Что же касается использования каннабиса в подготовке убийц, то это кажется весьма маловероятным:
Отдельно по этой теории прошелся Эдди Иззард, показавший, насколько абсурдными были бы ассасины под гашишом:

Наконец, Россия, 1918 год. Убийца Николай Орлов отправляется по поручению руководства Братства в поместье, находящееся под контролем большевиков. Там Николая необходимо освободить царскую семью и добыть ценную вещь, за которой охотятся и ассассины, и тамплиеры.

Promotion and release
Ubisoft acquired thepost-production visual effects studio Hybride Technologies based in Montreal on July 7, 2008, as part of their strategy to extend its brands to other media forms, and to converge gaming and filming entertainment. A year later, during a press conference held at E3 2009, Ubisoft revealed the making of short films based on the universe of Assassin’s Creed II using the game’s engine, with the participation of Hybride and Ubisoft Digital Arts.
Ubisoft then released more details about the project during 2009’s Comic-Con, revealing some behind-the-scenes shots at the same time. The first episode was shown to the press during a premiere at a theater in the Champs-Élysées on October 19, 2009, and a public teaser trailer was released that same day.
The first episode was released on YouTube on October 26, 2009. The second episode premiered on Spike TV on November 12, 2009 at 12am, and the third episode premiered in the United Kingdom on Film24 on November 22, 2009 at 9pm.
Ассасины — это не только убийцы, но и клуб богемных декадентов
В XIX веке в Париже существовал так называемый «Клуб Ассасинов». Это было литературное объединение дерзких, но популярных поэтов и прозаиков, в которое в том числе входили Бодлер, Дюма-отец, Гюго и Бальзак. Помимо экспериментов с давамеском эти столпы литературы прославились популяризацией образа ассасинов и Хасана ибн Саббаха, загадочного мистика и повелителя Аламута. Многие из клише, оставшихся в массовой-культуре, были созданы именно ими и с них же начинается традиция художественного искажения фактов о низаритах.
В каком-то смысле Ubisoft поддерживают и развивают мифологическую систему, которая будучи основанной на реальной истории, была дополнена вымыслом французских классиков и заядлых любителей гашиша.
Trivia
- Revelations was the first Assassin’s Creed game in which Ezio’s default outfit was not predominantly white. It was also the first game where his default outfit did not have a cape, although he did wear one before his arrival at Masyaf.
- The lack of a missing ring finger on the Levantine Assassins previously seen in Assassin’s Creed was corrected in Revelations. However, this introduced a new inconsistency, as the Assassins would lack a ring finger even after Altaïr had introduced changes that made the ritual obsolete.
- Altaïr’s voice was provided by Cas Anvar, who spoke with a Middle-Eastern accent authentic to Altaïr, unlike his Western accent heard in Assassin’s Creed provided by Philip Shahbaz. Altaïr’s Middle-Eastern accent was only previously heard in Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines.
- Despite the crossbow having been originally removed from Assassin’s Creed due to historical inaccuracies, it made an appearance in one of Altaïr’s memories, being used by Haras to execute several Assassins.
- The identity of Juhani Otso Berg, participating in the second stage of the Animi Training Program, was left unmentioned until the release of Assassin’s Creed: Initiates, though it did detail his rise through the ranks of the Templar Order, becoming a Master Templar and a member of the Order’s Inner Sanctum.

Production
Development
Michael Fassbender as Aguilar
Ubisoft began development of the film in May 2011, where it was confirmed for a 3D release. Later that year, Ubisoft was reaching a deal with Sony Entertainment to distribute the film. The terms and conditions surrounding the agreement were described by Hollywood insiders as «unheard of», with Ubisoft getting the final say on the budget, principal cast, script, release date and more.
The level of control is afforded to Ubisoft divided critics of both games and films, with many noting that while Hollywood insiders considered Sony’s move to have killed the film before it had even begun, gamers considered the move to be beneficial to the franchise’s future, as in recent years, game adaptations had tended to be of poor quality. Senior Vice President of International Marketing, Jean de Rivieres, echoed this sentiment, and claimed that the film will «reflect the brands accurately and consolidate our fan base.»
Michael Fassbender came aboard to star and produce a year later. He explained «I met up with the guys from Ubisoft and they told me the story behind it, and I thought it was very interesting — the idea of reliving memories.«
On 22 October 2012, it was announced that Ubisoft Motion Pictures had chosen to develop the film in close collaboration with New Regency, because they were «a talent and filmmaker-driven company, with the same independent and creative mindset that we have at Ubisoft Motion Pictures.» The development of a screenplay began immediately, and the project was fast-tracked, while still allowing Ubisoft to maintain control of key elements of the film’s creative direction. Ubisoft also changed their distributor from Sony Entertainment to 20th Century Fox, though the reason for this has not been made known.
It was decided that characters from the games would not be used, as the film was about «finding a character that was fresh.»
Ubisoft hired English writer Michael Lesslie to pen the script for the movie, and Conor McCaughan to help Fassbender produce the film. In 2013, screenwriter Scott Frank (Minority Report, The Wolverine) was rewriting the script.Adam Cooper and Bill Collage, who wrote the original draft of Ridley Scott’s Exodus: Gods and Kings, were assigned to rewrite the script the following year.
In April 2014, it was reported Fassbender was looking to reteam with director Justin Kurzel, with whom he collaborated on the upcoming film version of Macbeth. In August, Fassbender confirmed Kurzel was attached to the project, as was his cinematographer Adam Arkapaw.
Pre-production
Promotional image
In February 2015, it was announced that the film had entered production. Costume designer Sammy Sheldon Differ said, «I have much respect for the historical accuracy and vast characterization represented in each game. This has been a fantastic starting point to understand what is needed to be faithful to the artistic content and begin creating our film world. Bearing in mind this rich base, I have used our period of 15th century Spain, with its strong influences of Moorish deco, to give the Assassin’s looks a nomadic warrior personification.»
Filming
Filming began on 31 August 2015 and took place in London, Spain and Malta. The movie has also been confirmed to be set within the same universe as the franchise’s other media. Shooting wrapped on 15 January 2016. The original ending of the film had Callum as the lone survivor. He would then go on in subsequent films attempting to escape the Templars. Test audiences did not react favorably to this ending, so it was changed prior to release.
