Assassin's Creed Unity

Assassin's Creed Unity is an action-adventure game set in Paris during the French Revolution. Players take on Arno Dorian, a deadlier breed of assassin than his ancestors, who sets out to expose the forces secretly steering the political turmoil. New tools support his work, chief among them the Phantom Blade, a Hidden Blade fitted with crossbow capabilities.

The game places a heavy emphasis on stealth, parkour and close combat, with reworked free-running mechanics and a revised fighting system that give players a high degree of control over their movements. Its open world recreates eighteenth-century Paris at full scale, a once-magnificent city dragged into terror and chaos.

As the nation tears itself apart, players witness history unfold firsthand, taking part in key events such as the storming of the Bastille and the execution of King Louis XVI. A cooperative multiplayer mode supports as many as four players sharing the streets of a city on the verge of transformation.
