Assassin's Creed is the next-gen game developed by
Ubisoft Montreal that will redefine the action
genre. While other games claim to be next-gen with
impressive graphics and physics, Assassin's Creed
merges technology, game design, theme, and
emotions into a world where you instigate chaos
and become a vulnerable, yet powerful, agent of
change.

The setting is 1191 AD. The Third Crusade is
tearing the Holy Land apart. You, Altair, intend
to stop the hostilities by suppressing both sides
of the conflict.

You are an Assassin, a warrior shrouded in secrecy
and feared for your ruthlessness. Your actions can
throw your immediate environment into chaos, and
your existence will shape events during this
pivotal moment in history.
