Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood is a 2010 action-adventure video game developed by Ubisoft Montreal and published by Ubisoft.[1][2] It is the third major installment in the Assassin's Creed series, and the second chapter in the "Ezio Trilogy", as a direct sequel to 2009's Assassin's Creed II. The game was first released on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in November and December 2010 and was later made available on Microsoft Windows in March and June 2011.

The plot is set in a fictional history of real-world events and follows the millennia-old struggle between the Assassins, who fight to preserve peace and free will, and the Templars, who desire peace through control. The framing story is set in the 21st century and features series protagonist Desmond Miles who, using a machine known as the Animus, relives the memories of his Assassin ancestor, Ezio Auditore da Firenze, to find a way to avert the 2012 apocalypse. The main story takes place during the Italian Wars, spanning the years 1500–1507, and continues from the events of Assassin's Creed II, as Ezio takes the fight against the Templars (led by the powerful Borgia family) to Rome, where he attempts to rebuild the Assassin Brotherhood in Italy and liberate the city from the Borgias' control.

Brotherhood features an open world and is played from the third-person perspective, with a primary focus on using Desmond's and Ezio's combat, climbing and stealth abilities to eliminate targets and explore the environment. As Ezio, players can freely explore Rome to advance the narrative, or complete a variety of side missions unrelated to the main storyline. The game introduces a multiplayer component to the series, in which players assume the role of a Templar in training. A number of downloadable content (DLC) packs were released to support Brotherhood, including The Da Vinci Disappearance, a story expansion set during the events of the single-player campaign.

Upon release, the game received critical acclaim, with praise directed at its setting, new content, gameplay improvements over its predecessor and the new multiplayer mode. The narrative was also positively received, although it was generally seen as inferior to that of Assassin's Creed II. The game won multiple awards including a BAFTA award for Best Action Game. It was also commercially successful, shipping 7.2 million units by May 2011. The final installment in the Ezio Trilogy, Assassin's Creed: Revelations, was released in November 2011. A remastered version of Brotherhood, along with Assassin's Creed II and Revelations, was released as part of The Ezio Collection for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on November 15, 2016, and for the Nintendo Switch on February 17, 2022.

like this comment to say "requiescat in pace ubisoft" in a very thick and convincing italian accent 🪶

AC 2 is special. But brotherhood was something else. It had everything you wanted from an AC game. It was just perfect.

[TheEternalOuroboros]

It's crazy to think they managed to create these games in one year after one another. We need the old writers back.

[Zesty]

My favourite memory of this game was sending 2 fresh assassin recruits on a 1% chance of success difficult mission and them both coming back near enough max level

[franzliszt]

"My wife is really good with the knife"

Mine too, she's in prison.

One aspect to Ezio’s character that’s interesting is his relationship with his sister. The years of II he spent being an Assassin, Claudia was left behind at the family home doing bookkeeping. This time she’s not going to let Ezio sideline her, and proves she can hold her own as well as being an ally by being a source of information. She challenges Ezio’s view of her, part of his maturation being him trusting her more and not trying to shelter her. He still beats up Duccio for how Duccio describes her, but what else are big brothers for?

[skifhimmelstern]

Still my second favorite AC game after 2. The only criticism I have nowadays is that there are way too many annoying, frustrating tailing missions.

[ikaeye]

This period was the golden age of assassin's creed and gaming in general, sad we won't see anything like this anymore

[tiagocorreia]

My fav was Revelations. All of the improvements Ezio made throughout his run and a very emotional sendoff, while also using a every underrated and underused protagonist in Altair. The multiplayer was also the best, sad they shut down the servers. Requiescat in pace Ezio 🕊

[libitariq]

The most satisfying part of the ezio series for me is casually walking past a guard, disarming them, dropping their weapon and randomly having them run away in fear. The many tiny details that show Ezio's mastery is amazing.

[dawsynasay]

Every time I hear Ezio’s Family it brings back wonderful memories. AC2 is my favorite, but Brotherhood will always hold a special place in my heart. I can’t believe you’re almost done covering the entire series. Any ideas for what series you’ll cover next?

[bryanortega]

I have been re-playing a lot of AC this year. Starting with the Ezio Collection, I am now in Black Flag. Brotherhood is, without a doubt, still my favorite in the series, and even one of my favorite games period.

Also, 3 was WAY better than I remembered.

[kolbekjm]

Ac2 and Brotherhood defined everything an Ac game should be for me. The cities of Italy and Ezio as a character makes the game timeless imo.

[jrad]

I loved Brotherhood. Similar to what would come with Black Flag, it built upon what the previous entry did. Brotherhood was just a fun game, light story, and it gave players so many different types of missions to play. Not my 1, but I can easily see why anyone would rank this as their favorite.

[Flatter_Sine]

One thing that makes me realize how good this game is what you said about it's a playground game, but not just a simple playground game like its sequels trying to stretch.

All of Brotherhood's side missions actually mattered to the story like in AC1. They repurposed everything from AC2 that sometimes feels disjointed then straighten them up.

You do contracts to pick off Cesare's court, you do courtesans to eliminate political allies, you do thieves to eliminate bandits employed by Borgia, Romulus lairs to uncover Vatican conspiracy, and you do towers and training your assassins to liberate Roma

It's engaging because when the game hook you into the story and then actually recognize the story in every parts of the game, you are invested since it mattered and not something to waste your time.

[julianfrancojr]

I played all the Ezio trilogy recently and got to play AC2 & AC Revelations for the first time and honestly I like AC2 almost as much as AC brotherhood, but brotherhoods my all time fav as it was also my first AC

[jbcatz]

The modern day really works for this game. Desmond does his first proper Leap of Faith and you need to do a parkour section before getting into the meat of the Animus simulation. The banter between Desmond and Lucy is a lot of fun, like Lucy pointing out how pudgy he’s gotten from the time spent under the Animus or helping each other go through the tunnels. Being able to explore Monteriggioni in the present and find objects linked to how the town was in II. Setting up in the vault where the Master Assassin statues are located, interacting with the one for Altaïr triggering a funny cutscene.

The climax once more uses exploring the same environment in two time periods, traversing the interior of the Colosseum to access the Isu vault where once more you get to do parkour to get to the Apple stored there (leading to a shocker of an ending where Juno compels Desmond to kill Lucy with a command prompt for the player to do so, cue credits).

Final note, it’s the last game with this character model for Desmond. Starting Revelations and seeing the revised character model is an experience.

16:40 The online brotherhood is very special for me. I used to play it occasionally but one night, a friend came to my house and it was my first drunk night as a teen, playing online for the whole night, and realized how fun the online was. Those images brings a lot of memories from an other time

[smf]

Ah man, I remember how much I hated Brotherhood back then solely because I witnessed the Armor of Altair, which to this day I'll never forget how hard I worked for to unlock in Assassin's Creed 2, get buried in rubble in the opening part because Ezio decided to do his "whoring" the night before lol. I was 12 during this time and my argument was "Fuck you Ezio, If you DIDN'T take off your clothes the night before, we would've had SOMETHING to start with."

I never truly realized back then how hooked I am to Ezio as a character and how much fun it was to follow him from birth to death. Best gaming years of my life.

[hamadsidiqui]

I didn't ever play this series, affording a good computer or a Playstation was way beyond my means. Thanks to the PS Plus subscription now and a used PS4 that I can now afford as an adult, I can definitely say I missed out during the Ezio days, but this regret of missing out I can now lay to rest.
