The seventh video game in the main saga of the Assassin’s Creed series, bringing the Kengway saga to a close. In it, you control Shay Patrick Cormac, a former member of the fictional Assassin’s Order who joins a fictional Templar Order, an enemy of the first, during the Seven Years’ War. The gameplay retains the strong maritime component of the previous title, this time set in different parts of the North Atlantic, although other locations such as parts of New York, Paris and Lisbon appear. Despite the high degree of historical reinterpretation, it stands out for the richness of its setting and the interaction with the environment and the appearance of historical characters such as Lawrence Washington, George Monro and James Cook.

Third installment in the Assassin’s Creed series. It continues the plot of the previous title, as well as sharing the same graphics engine, design and gameplay. The plot is set in the Italian cities of Monteriggioni and, especially, Rome, although there are missions in other Italian locations and in the city of Viana, in the Kingdom of Navarre. It is set in the first decades of the 16th century, specifically at the end of the papacy of Alexander VI. Despite its historical licences, it stands out for the richness of its setting, the meticulous recreation of the cities and the interaction with the environment and characters such as Rodrigo Borgia, Cesare and Lucrezia Borgia, Leonardo da Vinci, Machiavelli, etc.

Fourth installment in the Assassin’s Creed series. It continues the plot of the previous title, closing the story of Ezio Auditore. It shares the same graphics engine, design and gameplay as its predecessor -although the use of a grappling hook is implemented to improve mobility through the scenarios-. The plot shifts to the East, specifically to a Constantinople newly christened Istanbul after the Ottoman conquest, although there are missions set in the underground city of Derinkuyu in Cappadocia, Masyaf in modern-day Syria, and locations in the Orontes Valley. It is significantly less historically accurate than its predecessor titles, but is notable for its rich setting, detailed recreation of cities and interaction with the environment and other characters.
