Assassin's Creed (literally "the Creed of the Assassins") is a series of historical action-adventure and infiltration video games in the open world (platform limit), developed and published by Ubisoft. The main titles developed by Ubisoft Montreal were released on 7th generation consoles (Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3), 8th generation (Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Wii U and Nintendo Switch) and 9th generation (Xbox Series, PlayStation 5) as well as only on PC, while the secondary episodes were released on portable consoles (Nintendo DS, PlayStation Portable, PlayStation Vita) and on mobile phones (Java, Android, iOS).
The principle of the game is based on the “Animus”[2], a machine capable of reading the genetic memory of a subject, that is to say the memory of their ancestors. This concept allows you to explore various places and eras of the past. The protagonist of the first parts of the series is Desmond Miles, a young American with ancestors who are part of the Order of Assassins, a centuries-old oriental sect.[3] We thus discover in Assassin's Creed, the first game in the series released in 2007, Altaïr Ibn La-Ahad, a master Assassin who lived in the Holy Land during the Third Crusade, then various characters who lived in different historical periods[4]. The Brotherhood of Assassins is in the series in constant conflict with the Templars who also continued to exist in the game, even after their official dissolution. The latest episode, Assassin's Creed Mirage, released in 2023, takes place in 862 AD. BC and explores the Baghdad region.
Although each opus takes place in a specific historical and geographical context, narrative arcs appear over the same period: the Third Crusade (Assassin's Creed, Altaïr's Chronicles, Bloodlines), the Renaissance (Assassin's Creed II, Discovery, Brotherhood, Revelations, Identity ), the American Revolution (Assassin's Creed III, Liberation, Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, Pirates, Rogue), revolutions (Unity (French Revolution), Syndicate (industrial revolution), Chronicles (Russian Revolution)), Antiquity ( Origins, Odyssey) and the Viking Age (Valhalla), the last three games forming a trilogy on mythology
