AC Unity Confession. Double commented walkthrough - parkour through
Watching Assassin's Creed Unity Gamescom 2014 trailer together with you.
As Arno himself says early on in this 11-minute gameplay video (narrated by Creative Director Alex Amancio): Opportunities are everywhere. The video showcases one of Arno’s first assignments as an Assassin – but it also shows off the new mission setup for this new-gen game. Called “black boxes,” the missions are now designed to let players carve out their own path and craft their own experience however they see fit. Missions will even change depending on any number of tasks you complete along the way, further allowing you to make Assassin’s Creed Unity a personalized experience – even in the narrative-driven solo campaign.
Along with the black box missions, the video also offers new insights into the upgraded parkour and the improved stealth experience that, as Amancio says, gives you the “silence and agility of a predator.” Also noteworthy: the Notre Dame. From the stunning views atop the cathedral to the fully modeled interior, this landmark is a sight to behold. And, as Amancio adds, “All iconic landmarks in ACU have fully modeled custom interiors all filled with various activities.” Including, of course, assassinations.
Paris, 1789. The French Revolution turns a once-magnificent city into a place of terror and chaos. Its cobblestoned streets run red with the blood of commoners who dare to rise up against an oppressive aristocracy. Yet as the nation tears itself apart, a young man named Arno will embark upon an extraordinary journey to expose the true powers behind the Revolution. His pursuit will throw him into the middle of a ruthless struggle for the fate of a nation, and transform him into a true Master Assassin.
Have a nice game!

Assassin’s Creed Rogue River Valley Land Gameplay Walkthrough. Gang Head...
Now with Whispers and Compass - seriously, how can you find Assassin without compass?
Courtesy Ubiblog:
You’ve hunted down Templars and assassinated them, fulfilling your contract and your duty. But this time it’s different. In Assassin’s Creed Rogue, you step into the boots of Shay Patrick Cormac, a former Assassin who turns against the Creed and turns toward the Templars, becoming a deadly Assassin hunter. And in this all-new River Valley Land Gameplay Walkthrough – narrated by Game Director Martin Capel – you’ll get to see this in stunning action.
Shay has an expanded Templar arsenal that he’ll need to use to create confusion, manipulate his surroundings, and take on new foes. Check it out to see the grenade launcher (which includes different area-of-effect ammo) and an air gun (for precision attacks – also with an array of different ammo) in action. And stick around to the end to see an full-on Templar / Assassin chase.

Assassin’s Creed Rogue Arctic Naval Gameplay Walkthrough - AC4 Reinvented
Arctic Naval Gameplay AC Rogue - it's like playing AC4 Naval. Oh, no, it's more like Freedom Cry naval, right? :)
Courtesy UbiBlog:
The Morrigan is a deadly beast, easily cutting through the treacherous waters of the North Atlantic. Armed to the figurative gills with the best weapons Templar money can buy (which is quite a lot), she is certainly an impressive foe for any enemy ship. Like, for instance, the French ships in the demo below. Assassin’s Creed Rogue brings back naval combat in a new and exciting way. Witness Shay at the helm (with a little support from a familiar face) in a battle against a small fleet of French ships.
Set during the Seven Years’ War (also known as the French and Indian War), Assassin’s Creed Rogue will take you from the crowded streets of New York to the Appalachian River Valley and up into the frigid North Atlantic. This war marked one of the first global conflicts in history as the British went to war against the French and the Native Americas.
We had some hands-on time with this particular demo and were able to get a good feel for how the Morrigan handles. Though many of the systems are similar to Edward’s Jackdaw, there is something about the Morrigan that just feels more aggressive. Maybe that’s all the Templar cash poured into her, or maybe that’s the souped-up version of her we were able to play, but whatever it was, we fell in love instantly. There’s something incredibly addictive about picking up speed right before you slam into an enemies hull, only to pull away and batter them with the puckle gun, an old-fashioned machine gun-type weapon added to your arsenal.
In our own hands-on demo, a ship pursued us, coming up behind us, but a trail of burning oil (another new tool) slowed it down and quickly ate away at its health. Our enemies defeated, we sail straight through an ice field – something that can only be done after an upgrade to the Morrigan, as she won’t have the ice ram in the beginning of the game. Again, we were playing with a highly decked-out ship in our demo. As we rip through the ice, our crew begins to sing. “Shanties were very popular and they were very common among seafarers, so yes, we definitely brought them back,” Luhe explains. “We’ve removed all the very pirate-themed shanties and brought in Irish ones for Shay and also some New York-themed ones.”
As we head to our destination – a shipwreck encased in ice – we run into another group of ships, this time belonging to a gang allied with the Assassins. Like the Pirate Hunters in Assassin’s Creed IV, the gangs will come after you when your Wanted level is raised. We deal with the brunt of the attack and are suddenly rammed by an enemy ship before they start pouring onto the Morrigan. This is one of the biggest new features of the naval combat; you can now be boarded by enemy crews. Much like boarding in Black Flag, you’ll have objectives to complete in order to successfully defend your ship. The crew isn’t particularly difficult to take down, but the captain is Assassin-trained and has a few tricks up his sleeves. Once dispatched, our journey to the shipwreck is smooth sailing.
We pass new harpooning animal on our way: the narwhal. We’ve always thought of narwhals as the unicorn of the sea, so we chose not to go hunting this time. Once we reach the Sapphire Shipwreck, we immediately notice another new change. As soon as we hop of the ship and step into the water, our screen begins to ice up and little by little, Shay’s health depletes. It would be unwise to stay in freezing water for too long. As Luhe pointed out, Shay is a very strong swimmer, but he’s only human. In other, more southerly areas of the map, Shay will fare just fine in the water, but here it’s best to be cautious and avoid a lengthy swim out at sea.
As we explore the area we come across a few groups of adorable auks (they look a bit like penguins), a lone polar bear and a locked door protecting legendary Templar armor. You’ll have to collect all the necessary keys in the world to gain access to that armor. Finally we make it to a viewpoint in the area and get a glimpse of the vibrant Northern Lights before the demo ends.
“We saw this as our chance to close out the North American saga,” Luhe tells us. “There were a lot of unanswered questions, especially in Assassin’s Creed III. Why is the Brotherhood in such disarray? Why is Achilles pretty much on his own? This was our chance to close out the story we’ve started over the last couple of years and really bring it home. Plus, it was a great opportunity to show what it’s like to be a Templar as well.”
Have a nice game!

Assassin's Creed Rogue: Assassin Hunter Shea Patrick Cormac. AC Rogue Tr...
Assassin's Creed: Rogue is an upcoming Assassin's Creed game for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
Experience the journey of a Templar, Shay Patrick Cormac, hunting down his former Assassin brothers.
As Shay you’ll hunt those you previously called brothers from the streets of New York City to the frozen and fractured glacial landscapes of the Arctic Circle. Is Shay a traitor, rebel, renegade or something else entirely? Only one thing is certain, he follows his own creed.
Play as Shay, an Assassin who finds himself at a crossroads and ultimately turns his back on The Brotherhood in order to hunt them down. Assassin’s Creed Rogue will be available exclusively on Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 November 11th.
• Play as an all-new type of Assassin in the throes of a dark transformation from an adventurous Assassin to a loyal Templar committed to hunting down his former allies in the Assassin’s Brotherhood.
• New weapons such as the deadly air rifle and a variety of ammunition as well as specialized grenades can be used to distract, eliminate, or confuse enemies.
• Use Shay’s enhanced Eagle Vision and locate hidden Assassins to either avoid or eliminate them.
• Sail the icy and perilous seas of the North Atlantic for thrilling naval gameplay including new enemy tactics, exotic new weapons, and an arctic world full of icebergs and other dangers.
• Explore a diverse open world including the city streets of New York City, lush river valleys of the North East, and icy seas of the North Atlantic Ocean.
Rogue will incorporate naval combat in the North Atlantic Ocean, providing the player with a new ship, the Morrigan. Naval combat elements from previous games will be refined and incorporated.
Set in the 18th century during the Seven Years War, Rogue completes the North America saga that began with Assassin’s Creed III and Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag. From loyal Assassin brother to the Templar’s favored hunter, Shay will travel through the arctic North Atlantic Ocean, the Appalachian River Valley and a bustling New York City on his mission to destroy the Assassins.
In addition to the new environments, Shay will have access to some never-before-seen weapons as well as a new ship, The Morrigan, to help him take on threats on the open ocean with the return of naval gameplay.
Arm yourself with Shay’s air rifle and the variety of ammunition available. Whether you’re using specialized bullets or grenades, the gun is excellent for both short- and long-range combat. The Morrigan also comes equipped with a new set of tools to help you take on enemies in the frigid North Atlantic Ocean, including the puckle gun (a machine gun-like weapon) and burning oil, which creates a trail of fire behind your vessel. Be ready to defend your ship, as Assassins will be able to board you.
Have a nice game!

AC Unity Anime - French Revolution Animated. Assassin's Creed Unity trai...
Assassin’s Creed Unity teams up with famed musician and Master of Horror Rob Zombie to depict the chaotic and brutal events behind the French Revolution. Illustrated by The Walking Dead co-creator, Tony Moore, this animated short brings to life the gory details, bloody battles, and terrifying events of the revolution.
Go behind the scenes with famed musician and Master of Horror Rob Zombie and The Walking Dead co-creator Tony Moore as they explain the development of their latest animated short which reimagines the dark and violent history behind The French Revolution, the upcoming setting for Assassin’s Creed Unity. Watch in-depth interviews with the creators as they provide an inside look into each part of the development process, from the initial concept to the finished feature film.
This type of video was a first for Moore, who came to this project thanks to poster artist Angryblue. “I’ve had some stuff turned into motion comics before, so in my head that’s kind of what I anticipated, but I wasn’t really prepared at all for the level of execution that these guys were putting together,” Moore explained. “I was kind of thinking on that wavelength ahead of time and I was drawing art that was more suited to being cut up into little pieces and moved around. I had no idea how far these guys were going to take it.”
Of course, fans who are familiar with Tony Moore’s work will know his history with gore and horror, which makes him a perfect fit to capture the bloodshed of the French Revolution (and have fun doing it). “There’s this one part in the storming of the Bastille where we zoom in on a guy getting stabbed in the eye,” says Moore about his favorite part of the short. “We thought about it a lot and me and the animation team when back and forth with it and we went over the pacing and the viscosity of the blood and we just really dug in on it. Then the animation team went in and did this 3D mapping over a section of the face and had all the blood spurting out and all that great stuff. When they turned that in, it just blew my mind because it had been a long time coming with a lot of rough cuts and then when they were like, Here’s what we’ve got. It just blew me away.”
