Although I did play every single Assassin’s Creed game, I never stopped to wonder just how many of them exist. While listing the titles so I could start writing this article, finding out that Ubisoft put out twenty-three unique Assassin’s Creed games shocked me.
Despite the controversy that surrounds the franchise, Assassin’s Creed will probably remain one of the most recognizable game series for years to come. The first installation revolutionized the way stealth-based games work, and it became one of the most memorable titles from the ’00s.
Come to think of it; I get very sentimental remembering the innocent elementary school days when I’d hide sticks up my sleeves and stab my classmates. Even though the sticks weren’t pointy or dangerous (some were actually), I doubt my teachers or friends appreciated the video game references I was making.
Since we’re done with revisiting the physical and emotional trauma my peers had to endure, we can get on with the complete list of all Assassin’s Creed games in order. I’ll provide you with a brief review of each game on the menu, in case you’re looking to pick up a copy for a replay session. Furthermore, I’ll give you some personal recommendations on what I think the best Assassin’s Creed game is.
Assassin’s Creed Series: Main Games
First, let’s talk about the games that belong to the ‘canon universe’ of Assassin’s Creed. After we finish with all 12 of the main Assassin’s Creed titles, we can jump to the mobile and non-canon releases.
Trust me, the evolution of the franchise is quite breathtaking.
Assassin’s Creed
Supported Platforms: Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360
Assassin’s Creed Release Date: November 13, 2007
The original Assassin’s Creed was the first time any of us could take the role of an enraged assassin with a personal vendetta. Long story short: there’s a certain someone who tried to ruin your life; showtime – you’re out for blood. Now that I think about it, vendettas are a theme for the majority of protagonists in this series. You know what the Bible says: “Hell hath no fury like an assassin scorned.”
Without any spoilers, I’ll let you know what the original AC is all about: An evil tech company kidnaps an innocent bartender. Desmond Miles was enjoying his peaceful life of serving drinks up until he turned out to be a descendant of a powerful assassin. Using futuristic technology, called the Animus, the organization manages to transport Desmond’s consciousness into the body of his ancestor. Next, he relives Altair ibn La-Ahad’s memories in an attempt* to find out where the ancient Assassin hid a great treasure.
However, there’s something that stopped this game from becoming as successful as its sequel.
Was the story enticing? Yes. Was the gameplay revolutionary? Definitely. Did it get repetitive after a certain amount of time? Extremely. For this sole reason, the original Assassin’s Creed game isn’t considered to be the one that set the series up for popularity that it later attained. However, it certainly laid the groundworks for it and made the title recognizable among gamers worldwide.

Assassin’s Creed II
Supported Platforms: Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Xbox One, OS X
Assassin’s Creed II Release Date: November 17, 2009
I think everyone acknowledges that Assassin’s Creed II is the most popular game in the whole series. Those who don’t agree are unquestionably going to put the second installment within their top 3 picks. So, I’m okay with making this bold claim.
Again, the story begins with the adventures of our present-day protagonist. He wakes up inside an Abstergo (the organization which did experiments on him) building and escapes using the assassin skills which he retained from his time spent in Altair’s mind. This time, he jumps into another ancestor of his – Ezio Auditore da Firenze.
Ezio is the most recognizable face in the series and with a good reason. The second installment of Assassin’s Creed launched the game series to stardom. A deeply emotional story will undoubtedly make Ezio your favorite character of the entire series. The fact that you continue to follow his development through the next two installments only reinforces this claim. A complete story of how he goes from a wealthy Renaissance Italian kid to an experienced killer who saved the world numerous times is genuinely inspiring. Plus, you get to meet Leonardo da Vinci.
Furthermore, Ubisoft had significantly improved both the gameplay and visuals. The things that made the first game tedious were removed and utilizing the new gameplay additions; you could now actually enjoy the full 40 hours required to 100% complete this game.
Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood
Supported Platforms: Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Xbox One, OS X
Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood Release Date: November 16, 2010
This time, a more experienced Ezio is located in Rome, trying to stick his deadly weapons into the very heart of evil. Meanwhile, Desmond continues to relive his ancestor’s memories learning how to become a better assassin in the present day. However, both have a similar goal: locating powerful artifacts to stop the Templars from taking over the world.
Despite being a standalone title, Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood is a direct continuation of Ezio’s and Desmond’s adventures from last game. While it doesn’t significantly improve the visuals and the gameplay system, it does add a few fun elements.
For example, you could now recruit your assassin initiates and train them (hence the game’s title). Also, Ezio could now send his recruits on missions which yielded gold and resources or call upon them to assist him in battle. Finally, this is the first time Ubisoft included a multiplayer mode in the series.
Overall, Brotherhood is similar to the first installment, but many fans felt that the story was weaker.
Assassin’s Creed: Revelations
Supported Platforms: Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Xbox One, OS X
Assassin’s Creed: Revelations Release Date: November 15, 2011
Again, you play as Ezio. By the final part of his trilogy, he is older, and tired from running around killing everyone to save humanity. However, age hasn’t made him any less cunning or deadly. Ezio embarks on a mission to rid the world of any known threats before retiring his cape and hidden blades.
If you were attached to either Ezio’s or Desmond’s story, then you are going to enjoy Assassin’s Creed: Revelations. However, in terms of gameplay, it’s entirely forgettable. Aside from the “hookblades” which you could use for ziplining across the Ottoman empire, there were no new additions or changes.
Assassin’s Creed: Revelations is by no means boring or bad. Furthermore, the story elements are incredibly emotional and vital for what comes next in the Assassin’s Creed series. If you played through both II and Brotherhood, you’re due to see an end to Ezio’s story. Will it be grim or satisfying? I couldn’t resist finding out, and I hope neither can you.
Assassin’s Creed III
Supported Platforms: Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Wii U, Nintendo Switch
Assassin’s Creed III Release Date: October 10, 2012
This time, Desmond makes another ‘time-jump’ as he follows the memories of his Native-American relative throughout the American Revolutionary War. Ratonhnhaké:ton is the son of a white soldier and a Native-American woman. To blend in with the American society, he adopts the alias ‘Connor’ and becomes a badass assassin.
You know what this means… No more Ezio for us. 😞
In terms of gameplay, Assassin’s Creed III is extremely innovative – unlike its prequel. The series introduced new RPG elements that the fans haven’t seen before. For example, you could go on side-quests, which would reward you with treasures and resources that strengthen your combat skills. Also, Assassin’s Creed III included a plethora of unique weapons, along with breathtaking naval combat.
Additionally, Ubisoft added hunting & crafting challenges that let you use animal skins for creating various helpful accessories. Ubisoft later applied this gameplay feature to Far Cry 3 and subsequent FC games. (We talk about those in our review of the best RPG games in 2020.)
Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag
Supported Platforms: Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Wii U
Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag Release Date: October 29, 2013
Do you remember the Pirates of the Caribbean video games and how terrible they were? Luckily, most people don’t. However, it scarred me for life.
Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag captures the essence of the famous movie quite nicely, although the two series aren’t related. Many even consider Black Flag to be the spiritual adaptation of Disney’s famous movie franchise.
This time around, you visit the memories of Edward Kenway. The charming rogue pirate is the grandfather of Connor (from the previous sequel), and the story explains a lot about what happened during the last game. Additionally, Black Flag reveals a portion of Desmond’s family history.
Black Flag remains a classic Assassin’s Creed title, reusing the same old formula with some additions. Most importantly, the open world is much larger than that in any of the previous games. Furthermore, the game gives you immense freedom to roam and explore the Caribbean to your heart’s content. Naval combat is also upgraded compared to the previous sequel. You now have multiple options regarding ship upgrades, crew recruitment, and the actual battles.
Other than that, we were pretty much familiar with the gameplay element as a whole. The crafting system remained the same, and you still could recruit assassins like in Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood. Overall, Black Flag was an entertaining game to play, especially if you’re a fan of pirate-related multimedia.
Assassin’s Creed: Freedom Cry
Supported Platforms: Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Xbox One
Assassin’s Creed: Freedom Cry Release Date: February 25, 2014
Assassin’s Creed: Freedom Cry was a DLC for Black Flag. However, Ubisoft quickly re-released Freedom Cry as a standalone title. The fact that Freedom Cry was originally intended to be an expansion pack is noticeable, and fans weren’t happy about it.
The game takes place two decades after the events of Black Flag, and instead of Edward Kenway, you’re now in control of his first officer – a slave turned assassin, Adéwalé. Known as the ‘Breaker of Chains’ or ‘Mother of Dr…’ No, wait, that’s a different franchise. Jokes aside, Adéwalé’s story is hugely inspirational, as he fights his way through countless of Templars to free the world of metaphorical chains, as well as free his kinfolk from real ones.
The story was so good that the Writer’s Guild of America nominated freedom Cry for best writing. However, it lost to The Last of Us, which is no small feat considering the excellent writing in the PlayStation exclusive.
The story is entirely original and features active anti-racism elements. Also, the devs included some new weapons and unique gear that make it distinguishable from Black Flag. Overall, playing through Adéwalé’s adventures is something that I’d recommend to everyone.
Assassin’s Creed: Rogue
Supported Platforms: Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Xbox One
Assassin’s Creed: Rogue Release Date: November 11, 2014
After Assassin’s Creed III and Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, this was the final installment to be set in the colonial era. Originally, Ubisoft released Rogue exclusively for PS3 and Xbox 360, but it received a port to PC a year later. The remaster from 2018 is available on both Xbox One and PS4.
The gameplay elements, featured in Assassin’s Creed: Rogue, are the same as the ones we experienced in Black Flag. Thus, the system received a similar public reaction as the Freedom Cry did: no one understood the lack of innovations. Aside from that, the story was fun and enticing, as it was in all of the previous Assassin’s Creed games.
Following Shay Patrick Cormac, you’ll be able to experience a unique Assassin’s Creed storyline – utterly different than what the series has gotten us used to. This time around, you’re not an Assassin hunting evil Templars. Instead, Rogue showcases the wrong side of the Assassin Order and features a story of an Assassin recruit who turned Templar, saving the world from the Brotherhood. Shay’s story is definitely among my favorites in the series, and if you pick up the remaster from 2018, I guarantee you won’t end up disappointed.
If gameplay elements from the previous three installments didn’t bore you, then you will enjoy playing Rogue.
Assassin’s Creed: Unity
Supported Platforms: Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, Xbox One
Assassin’s Creed: Unity Release Date: November 11, 2014
Assassin’s Creed: Unity takes us back to Europe, with no more naval combat (which got somewhat dull, so thank you Ubisoft.) This time, we take control of Arno Dorian, an assassin based in France during the French revolution.
Although the release state of the game wasn’t that great, the patch quickly fixed it, and it remains one of my favorite titles in the series. The gameplay direction has shifted back to Assassin’s Creed II, with some notable improvements.
The story no longer features ‘out-of-animus’ sections, which many considered to be dull. In Unity, you can experience Arno Dorian’s unique story with no distractions. The historical accuracy is also impressive, and I’m sure history nerds (like me) are going to appreciate that.
Assassin’s Creed: Unity also included a considerable amount of RPG elements that earlier games didn’t have. You could now choose your loadout before missions and strategize depending on the way you want to complete your assassinations. Additionally, fans said they appreciate having to think and act like a human being who needs to use cunning to achieve the impossible. Compared to being a walking stockpile of weapons, like Connor was.
Storywise, you could now make decisions that would impact how the narrative ends. That, combined with the combat diversity, gives Assassin’s Creed: Unity a much higher replay value than that of its predecessors.
Following the tragedy at Notre Dame, Assassin’s Creed: Unity was made available for free by Ubisoft for a limited time.
Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate
Supported Platforms: Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, Xbox One
Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate Release Date: October 23, 2015
In Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate, we can see Ubisoft repeating the past. Just as Black Flag, Freedom Cry, and Rogue were similar to Assassin’s Creed III, Syndicate offers virtually no new gameplay elements compared to Unity.
In Ubisoft’s 2015 murderous release, you visit Victorian-era London. The good guys, assassins, are killing templars, saving the common folk, and meeting famous people from the past behind every corner. However, one thing is different. You have the option of choosing from two assassins and playing story missions with one of them. To make it even more interesting, they are twins.
Jacob and Evie Frye are recruited by none other than Charles Dickens to rid London of templars, or at least stop their terrible cause. Again, as it was the case in Unity, you can make meaningful choices to influence how the story ends. Furthermore, the ‘strategic kills,’ which I already talked about, appear again – you’re able to strategize before each mission or even complete optional side quests to make the assassination easier and more stealthy.
Overall, the game is enjoyable, but it has its downsides. There are almost no new gameplay elements compared to the previous installment, and the storyline is a bit weak. It’s not bad by any means; it’s just not emotional at all. Overall, if you’re into looking at beautiful visuals and having a great time assassinating people, yo love Unity.
Assassin’s Creed: Origins
Supported Platforms: Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, Xbox One
Assassin’s Creed: Origins Release Date: October 7, 2017
Initially, the fans believed this game would be called Assassin’s Creed: Empire. Ubisoft hasn’t allowed any leaks for this particular release, so the fanbase was shocked when the devs revealed the real title. Assassin’s Creed: Origins brought to us a long-awaited overhaul of the series. Of course, the fans had mixed feelings but, overall, it received a positive reception.
Coming into Ancient Egypt, you’ll be playing as Bayek of Siwa. The story in Origins is more compelling than the one in Syndicate, with numerous plot twists and ‘world-is-at-stake’ moments sprinkled all over the main campaign. Getting caught into various webs of intrigue, finding out the shocking truths about Pharaohs and Royal Families, and having your morality tested each step of the way. Story-wise, I loved Origins.
Gameplay makes Assassin’s Creed: Origins a completely different video game, compared to any of the previous titles. Instead of polished but weird ‘animation combat,’ Ubisoft introduced hitboxes. Now, you could damage multiple enemies using a single attack which also put your assassin at greater risk when a higher number of guards attack you. If you played any of the previous titles, especially Assassin’s Creed III, you are aware of the possibility to literally kill infinite enemies just chaining finishers and countering attacks. Combat evolution was a welcome change, as being sneaky and staying in shadows is now encouraged.
Origins being the first truly open-world game was surprising. Moreover, the world is much larger than anything we could see before in Assassin’s Creed game series. Fast travel is also available, and you’ll find yourself jumping between various ancient cities hunting bad people and shiny treasures. If you enjoyed the original story, you’re going to love Assassin’s Creed Origins DLC packs which feature new missions and locations to explore.
Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey
Supported Platforms: Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, Xbox One
Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey Release Date: October 5, 2018
Playing as Alexios or Kassandra, you’ll be able to experience a game that brought both new players and old fans of the series together to form a singular opinion. Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey is fantastic.
Taking place during the Peloponnesian War, you will be able to play as either of the two characters mentioned above. You play the prologue as King Leonidas (Gerard Butler in ‘The 300’.) and later on, you use a fragment of his spear for assassinations. Yup, one of the greatest weapons of all time is now your hidden blade.
The thing that made all of us fall in love with Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey is the fact that they finally did what we were expecting them to do for more than a decade:
- Take the previous installment
- Polish the pre-existing elements to perfection
- Add TONS of new gameplay elements
- Tie it in together with an enticing story
Finally, we got an Assassin’s Creed game that we all wanted for years. Complicated combat and RPG elements from Origins are here again, except that this time they are made to be both enjoyable and complicated. The storyline is full of twists that will give you adrenaline rushes and make you genuinely care about the characters. Finally, there is so much different content and ways to complete missions that the game is as from repetitive as it could be.
Also, an old friend is returning to the series, and it’s someone we all know and love. Let’s give warm applause to Mr. Naval Combat. 🌊
Yeah, although the ship battles are a bit different than we remember them from Black Flag & Sons. But, you don’t have to worry, as they are nothing short of exciting and innovative.
Overall, between my emotional connection to Assassin’s Creed II and the sheer awesomeness of Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey, I’d have a hard time deciding which of the two is my favorite. If you want to, you can ping me on my personal account, and I’ll make a reminder to notify you when I make up my mind.
All of this helps Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey advance to our list of the best RPGs of all time.
Assassin’s Creed Game Order: Spin-offs
Let’s talk spin-offs. I’ll be honest with you, none of them are that great compared to the main games, but they can be fun. Let’s look at all the spin-off titles.
Assassin’s Creed: Altair’s Chronicles
Supported Platforms: Jave ME, Nintendo DS, Windows Phone, Android, WebOS, Symbian, iOS
Assassin’s Creed: Altair’s Chronicles Release Date: February 5, 2008
The first spin-off is just a year older than the first Assassin’s Creed game. A prequel, happening years before we first met Altair, is called Assassin’s Creed: Altair’s Chronicles.
Story-wise the game talks about Altair’s past and also shows us a glimpse into what’s happening in the main story. It’s nothing breathtaking, but it’s worth looking at if you’re a massive fan of the series.
Gameplay features a side-scrollable combat system which isn’t something I expected from a series made famous by its open-world exploration. However, it can be fun and keep you glued to the screen for the limited amount of hours that Altair’s Chronicles have to offer.
Ubisoft originally released Altair’s Chronicles as an exclusive for Nintendo DS, but it later received its port to Android, iOS, Windows Phone, Java ME, and Symbian.
Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines
Supported Platforms: PlayStation Portable
Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines Release Date: November 17, 2009
A high-quality PSP exclusive, Assassin’s Creed Bloodlines is very different than Altair’s Chronicles. Thanks to updated hardware in PlayStation Portable, you could now roam the world in 3D as well as enjoy the gameplay that is quite similar to the first installment.
Again, you’ll be playing as young Altaïr Ibn-La’Ahad to stop templars from unfolding their evil plans. Ubisoft hasn’t put too much complexity into storylines featured in spin-offs, but that doesn’t make them any less entertaining if you are a fan of the AC universe.
Assassin’s Creed II: Discovery
Platforms: iOS, Nintendo DS
Release Date: November 17, 2009
Assassin’s Creed II: Discovery puts you into shoes of our beloved Ezio Auditore da Firenze, once again. The story takes place in the year 1491, while Ezio was searching for the Apple of Eden. The Venetian Thieves Guild approaches the protagonist, and he uses his skills to help them in return for a favor.
As for gameplay, 2D-scrollable combat made a return for the first time since Altair’s Chronicles.
Although the game is 3D, you’ll have to manage without the open-world features that Assassin’s Creed II had.
Assassin’s Creed III: Liberation
Supported Platforms: Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PlayStation Vita
Assassin’s Creed III: Liberation Release Date: October 30, 2012
Originally released as a PS Vita exclusive, Assassin’s Creed III: Liberation came out alongside the third part of the main series. Playing as Aveline de Grandpré, the Brotherhood will task you with stopping the Templars during the French and Indian war. The game takes place in New Orleans, and the story is longer than you’d expected, making Liberation’s size extremely close to that of the main series titles.
Worry not, the gameplay isn’t 2D anymore. Even better, it’s pretty much the same as what you experience in AC3. What’s even better is that you won’t have to buy PS Vita to enjoy Aveline’s adventure. Ubisoft originally ported Liberation to Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. In March 2019, they also remastered it for Xbox One, Playstation 4 and Microsoft Windows.
Assassin’s Creed III: Liberation is a pretty enticing title, and the remastered visuals are top-notch. I’m even thinking about getting it for my PC since the last time I played it was in 2015 on a PS3.

Assassin’s Creed: Pirates
Supported Platforms: Android, iOS
Assassin’s Creed: Pirates Release Date: December 5, 2013
If I could, I wouldn’t even mention this game, but I’m obliged to talk about it. Ubisoft released Assassin’s Creed: Pirates as a mobile title for Android and iOS in 2013. At first, it was available for purchase, but due to lack of interest, it became free to play.
Following Captain Alonzo Batilla who doesn’t belong to either the assassins or templars, you’ll experience what it’s like to play a bad mobile game. No, but seriously, it’s not all that bad, but Ubisoft removed it from both the iOS App Store and Google Play since for *unknown reasons.
*unknown reasons – it was bad
Assassin’s Creed: Memories
Supported Platforms: iOS
Assassin’s Creed: Memories Release Date: August 20, 2014
Another Smartphone app carrying the name of our beloved series, fans soon forgot Assassin’s Creed: Memories. As it was the case with the Pirates, this one was also nothing like the main series titles. Mainly because the gameplay shifted in a completely different direction.
Between collecting various types of cards and doing missions which are nothing more than waiting for timers, you’ll also be able to play mini-games that involve tapping your screen and tapping your screen even faster.
The story setting is in the present day, but you’ll be experiencing various era’s on your missions as you progress through the linear storyline. The devs also included a multiplayer option which spiced up the game a bit. Overall, Assassin’s Creed: Memories is a generic freemium mobile game with an Assassin’s Creed reskin.
Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: China
Supported Platforms: Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation Vita
Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: China Release Date: April 21, 2015
In Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: China, we return to the 2D combat back from the first spin-off. ACC: China and the next two sequels are part of the same trilogy following a unique storyline through three different eras and countries.
The female protagonist, Shao Jun, is a protege of Ezio Auditore da Firenze. Returning to her homeland back from Italy, she decides to exact revenge on Chinese Templars.
The game features 12 levels, and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a fun title with a satisfying storyline.
Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: India
Supported Platforms: Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation Vita
Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: India Release Date: January 12, 2016
Even though Ubisoft released the first part of the trilogy along with the Unity season pass, Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: India had to wait almost a full year for its arrival.
Taking place in India, we’re thrown right in the middle of the war between the Sikh Empire and the East India Company. This time around, our protagonist is Arbaaz Mir who first appeared in the graphic novel Assassin’s Creed: Brahman.
The assassin must find out why a mysterious Master Templar has come to town, and try to disrupt his plans. India features 2D combat similar to its prequel and the only innovation to the gameplay are the new weapons which are more era-specific..
Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: Russia
Supported Platforms: Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation Vita
Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: Russia Release Date: February 9, 2016
The final installment of the Chronicles trilogy takes you to Russia. The graphics and the combat system remain the same with one slight change. Guess what? New weapons.
Taking place just after the October Revolution has ended, you’ll take control of Nikolai Orelov, an assassin who made his first appearance in the comic book Assassin’s Creed: Subject Four. Before leaving Russia with his family, Nikolai has to complete one final mission for the Assassin Order.
Overall, Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: Russia was an enjoyable game, much like its predecessors.
Assassin’s Creed: Identity
Supported Platforms: Android, iOS
Assassin’s Creed: Identity Release Date: February 25, 2016
Finally, we got an AC game for smartphones that was actually good. Assassin’s Creed: Identity is set in Renaissance Italy, back when Ezio was still running the show. During an attack on Villa Monteriggioni, you take control of an unnamed Assassin and get caught up in a far-fetched Templar scheme.
Working together with various famous characters from Assassin’s Creed II, you’ll go from a side-character to a centerpiece in this exciting adventure. Ezio, Leonardo da Vinci, and Machiavelli will all help you stop the Templar Order from putting the world under their control.
The gameplay is incredibly refreshing, and it’s quite similar to what we saw in the second installment of the series. Since the two were released almost ten years apart from each other, there were some minor upgrades, but most of them are not worth mentioning. Regarding new features, one thing that comes to mind is the inclusion of classes and skill-trees that you can utilize to tailor the nameless Assassin to your preferences.
Assassin’s Creed: Rebellion
Supported Platforms: Android, iOS
Assassin’s Creed: Rebellion Release Date: November 21, 2018
Featuring a weird ‘chibi’ design, this is one of the most bizarre AC games that Ubisoft released to this date. Assassin’s Creed: Rebellion isn’t a classic action-adventure like the previous spin-off. Instead, it falls somewhere between the strategy and the RPG genres.
Taking place during the Spanish Inquisition, a plethora of famous characters from previous games are featured and used for story purposes.
Assassin’s Creed Series: Remasters
Assassin’s Creed: Liberation HD (2014) – We already mentioned this one in the Assassin’s Creed Liberation review. The first remaster of the original Assassin’s Creed Liberation has brought it to Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Microsoft Windows.

Assassin’s Creed Games in Order: Summary
Whether you took a stroll down memory lane remembering Ezio’s adventures, or you got excited about the new titles which you haven’t played yet, we hope you had fun reading the complete list of all Assassin’s Creed games in order.
In conclusion, some people are happy about the latest turn in the series, and others tend to be nostalgic. If you don’t belong to the latter group, you might enjoy other awesome sandbox games that allow you to play around with the game world.
