After Desmond awoken, Some weird guy known as Subject 16. This guy tells Desmond that he can relive Ezio's memories to see what had actually happened back then. The point of reliving those memories is see what had happened to the apple that Ezio had acquired and what he did with it.



Gameplay
Being set back at the time of the Templars, Players will have to find and seize control of the Templar's districts that has taken control over Constantinople. Players will have to be quick and silent when taking out enemy Templar troops roaming around the streets of Constantinople. Players will be able to craft an assort of weapons and bombs to use against the Templars to eliminate them. When players attempt to move and take control of a Templar district, players will have to find and kill the Templar leader that once killed, the remaining Templar troops need to be finished off then the player climbs the very top of the district to gain back control. At random points during the game, those districts that the player had took back will also be vulnerable against Templars who will try to and regain control. When this happens, players will engage the Templars with a force of assassins who will aid them in stopping the advance of the Templars whose intent is to regain control of the district. Players will be able to send troops to flank the Templars as they proceed towards them. Players can send out archers to kill targets from afar. Players will engage in close range combat against enemies wielding a variety of different swords, knives, blades, and other weapons meant to deliberate punishment against those who rebel against the Templars. Players will also be able to train and recruit assassins to aid them in missions and other purposes. Players will also earn coin and find loot from dead enemies, as well as finding hidden chests hidden around the city. Players can find unique ways to surprise and kill their enemies without haste such as from the rooftops or pulling them off from a roof top or ledge. Kill an enemy from a haystack. Players will also find the hidden gun useful to get those targets that start to flee or are to far to strike with hand.



Multiplayer
The multiplayer feature follows the same criteria as the previous installment of Assassins Creed. The new things players well notice is the new setup for the location of their targets they are pursuing. Its layout has been changed and looks more ideal and proper to accustom players more willingly. A few new killstreaks have been added to the game, as well as new perks and abilities. A few new games have also been added. The gametype Corruption, is a game where players have to avoid getting killed by the players who are corrupted. When a player gets killed by a player on the corrupted team, they will respawn on the corruption's team and kill the remaining uncorrupted players left. The game ends after three rounds. Another new gametype is Steal The Artifact, which players will have to locate and grab the artifact that spawns randomly in two different places. When the player grabs the artifact, they will again respawn to a random location and must avoid getting killed by other players who are trying to get the artifact for themselves. By holding on the artifact for two minutes, the player wins the game. A new features for character loadouts is that players are available to use different types of weapons for their characters to choose, as well as new styles for their outfits.

Graphics
The graphics are somewhat similar to the style of Brotherhood but a little more refurbished. The overall textures on the buildings, items, and clothing are really nice and clean. The different styled fabrics and carpets are really diverse in terms of colors and designs. Many of the citizens and other characters in the game feature their own unique clothing styles and overall facial features. The fabrics on the clothing really shows that fluidity when moving around as it flows. The bloodshed from killing the enemies are well done and have great contrast and clarity. The movement of the character's mouth as well as their hair flows really well and noticeable. The overall time and weather during the gameplay really alters the way the game would look when the weather is foggy or the time of day is late in the evening. Overall, the graphics look substantially more clearer in quality compared to older installments of the series and look quite remarkable upon the sight.

Controls
Players will find the controls quite similar to the older installments of the series. The game still features the unique layout for the controls in which some players may find it difficult to get used to. For the multiplayer portion of the game, A minor change that would enhance the multiplayer gameplay is the stun option which the button had been changed to its own button setup rather than being the same button to perform a kill or stun. Overall, the controls are nothing new to the already experienced player of Assassins Creed and should get really comfortable with the controls.



Rating
Gameplay: 9.5/10
Multiplayer: 10/10
Graphics: 9.5/10
Controls: 9.3/10
Overall: 9.6/10

Got to agree with you on this one.

I've played through all the AC games and I think they're really good, I've never been a fan of the multiplayer but always enjoyed the story lines and the historic aspect to them.

Good review.

EDIT: You should talk about the hookblade as that was a new feature and made free-roaming so fun.
