When Callum Lynch saw his mother die at the hands of his father, his life was never the same again. Years later, Lynch is in death row and scheduled to be executed, but he woke up a facility in Madrid, Spain where a woman who introduced herself as Sophia Rikkin told him they needed his past to find an end to violence. Lynch does not know anything about the conflict of the Assassins and the Templars. Aguilar de Nerha was an ancestor of Lynch believed to have been the last person to possess an Apple of Eden. He and other assassins were supposed to protect the Prince Ahmed of Granada from becoming a pawn by Tomas de Torquemada to force Sultan Muhammad XII to surrender the Apple.

Assassin's Creed Embers

Image
Set years after Assassin's Creed Revelations, Ezio Auditore lives in a countryside with Sofia Sartor and their children Flavia and Marcello. A retired assassin, he was alarmed to find a hooded figure talking to Flavia one day. It turns out the stranger, who introduced herself as Shao Jun, was looking for Ezio to ask him how to rebuild the assassin order in her country and how to help her people. Ezio at first refused but Sofia convinced Ezio to let her stay. Shao Jun (left) and Ezio Auditore Ezio and Sofia "... love of people, cultures, and the world... fight to preserve that which inspires hope and you will win back your people." This sad and beautiful 21 minutes and 22 seconds short animation film shows Ezio at the twilight of his life. Though dissatisfied and full of regrets, he is still a formidable fighter in the film even if he's slower than the hero in the three games. Ezio's fans will love this peek at Ezio's last moments (and...

Assassin's Creed Ascendance

Image
Assassin's Creed Ascendance is a short animated film set after Assassin's Creed II and before Assassin's Creed Brotherhood. Ezio Auditore was informed that a new threat is growing in Roma. Pope Rodrigo Borgia's son, Cesare, is brewing up trouble to take control of all of Roma. In the next 13 minutes and 32 seconds, Ezio learns how his would-be nemesis rose to power. Ezio Auditore Cesare Borgia (middle) The picture story animation is reminiscent of the artistic style of the Renaissance. The music, voice acting, and scenery will all be familiar to the gamers. There are fewer action scenes than in Assassin's Creed Lineage and mostly just recollection of Cesare's deeds to get to where he is at the start of AC Brotherhood. The picture story might be new to the viewers but it's just as beautiful as the animation in the games. Voice Actors: Roger Craig Smith - Ezio Auditore Andreas Apergis - Cesare Borgia Carlos Ferro - Leonardo da V...

Assassin's Creed Ezio Trilogy

Image
Note:  My review will not include the multiplayer modes for AC Brotherhood and Revelations and most of the DLCs. I will provide a list however of DLCs included in this edition (refer to cover above). Assassin's Creed II is the direct sequel of Assassin's Creed, while Brotherhood and Revelations follow up on the story of the trilogy's lead character Ezio Auditore. The gameplay is similar to the first game. Memories are accessed through the Animus. These memories form sequences and must be completed by performing the necessary objectives of each mission. Ezio's abilities are pretty much the same as Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad's in Assassin's Creed  but with several improvements. The wall climb and roof run, Leap of Faith, and tracking targets by stealth or gathering information are basically the same.  At the start of Assassin's Creed II, Desmond Miles is rescued by Lucy Stillman out of Abstergo Industries, the Templars, and brought to a secret, t...

Working as an assassin for Lorenzo de' Medici, Giovanni, stumbled onto some conspiracy to bring the Medicis down after the assassination of the Duke of Milano. The loss of the duke meant also a thinning of Lorenzo's allies and a threat to Florence's power. Giovanni has to discover who is behind the conspiracy. Giovanni Auditore From left: Giovanni, Uberto Alberti, and Lorenzo de' Medici Rodrigo Borgia AC Lineage shows the familiar wall climbs and roof runs that fans of the franchise enjoy. It also features characters who will be important in AC II. The fight scenes are awesome and the scenery beautiful. The three-episode short film shows the places Ezio Auditore will later explore in AC II and the possible reason why Giovanni and two of his sons were executed in game. Cast: Romano Orzari - Giovanni Auditore Ma...
