Assassin's Creed: Revelations is a 2011 action-adventure video game developed by Ubisoft Montreal and published by Ubisoft. It is the fourth major installment in the Assassin's Creed series, and a direct sequel to 2010's Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, concluding the "Ezio Trilogy". The game was released on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and Microsoft Windows in November and December 2011. A remastered version of Revelations, along with Assassin's Creed II and Brotherhood, 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.

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 the series protagonist Desmond Miles who, after falling into a coma during the events of Brotherhood, must relive the memories of his ancestors through the Animus device in order to awaken and find a way to avert the 2012 apocalypse. The main story spans the years 1511–1512, and follows an aged Ezio Auditore da Firenze (the protagonist of the trilogy) as he travels to Constantinople to find five keys needed to unlock a vault built three centuries ago by Altaïr Ibn-LaʼAhad (the protagonist of the first game in the series). While searching for the keys, Ezio becomes caught in a feud between the Ottomans and the Byzantines, and discovers that the Templars are also attempting to unlock Altaïr's vault and its secrets.

Revelations features an open world and is played from the third-person perspective, with a primary focus on using Ezio's and Altaïr's combat, climbing and stealth abilities to eliminate targets and explore the environment. Ezio, who the player controls throughout the majority of the game, can freely explore Constantinople and complete side missions unrelated to the main storyline. Altaïr is playable in a smaller capacity, as he is featured only in a series of flashback missions set in Masyaf from 1189 to 1257. In the modern-day, the player controls Desmond in a series of first-person platforming levels within the Animus. The multiplayer mode returns from Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, and has been expanded with additional maps, characters, and game modes.

The game was released with multiple editions, some of which featured exclusive limited-time content. Most notably, several editions included an animated short film, titled Assassin's Creed: Embers, which serves as a proper conclusion to Ezio's story, and which was later re-released as a free download on the PlayStation Store. Downloadable content (DLC) released for the game includes new maps and characters for the multiplayer mode, and a story expansion titled The Lost Archive, which adds more platforming levels to the modern-day.

Upon release, Revelations received largely positive reviews, with praise directed at the world design and narrative, although some reviewers noted that the gameplay of the series was getting overly familiar and the newly introduced features felt lacking in comparison to the ones introduced in previous titles. The game was a large commercial success, outperforming the sales of its predecessors. It was followed in October 2012 by Assassin's Creed III, which introduces a new storyline and protagonist in the New World during the 18th century, while also concluding Desmond's story arc

Meet Geralt and Yennefer in AFK Arena, and use bonus codes: thewitcher3 to get awesome rewards!

The opening intro sequence of Ezio fighting and getting captured all the while delivering one of the greatest monologues I’ve ever heard, that already is enough for it to be in my top 5 if not top 3

[chrischauhan]

Ezio communicating with Desmond is the best moment in entire series. Man I miss this series so much.

[Aezoh]

Whoever the writer was for Ezio is a genius. That monologue in the end scene where he talks to Desmond in Altair's library is phenomenal!!

[Sniperkng]

Not to mention it gave us an iconic piece of dialog in all of Assassins Creed. "There are two parts to the hook-blade. The and the blade"

[fabriciofla]

Finished this year for the first time and I think it's as good as Brotherhood, honestly.

Seeing the transformation of Ezio, from hot headed, womanizer teenager in AC2 to the wise, calm and collected (but still a bit of a womanizer) master assassin in Revelations is amazing, and it's very rare to see this kind of character evolution in videogames.

Also very cool to see that he married and settlet down eventually, getting a much deserved final years of happines. So long, Ezio.

[phononanon]

I feel like the romance with Sofia Sartor is super underrated as an example of well-written mature romance. Ezio is a gentleman, he doesn’t need to wife her and is in no hurry, he just lets things develop while ensuring she has every opportunity to decide she’s not into him. Just immaculate patience and maturity. Such a good role model for how men should approach relationships irl.

[dutchplanderlinde]

My favorite scene in this game is in the ending when the music shifts from Altair's theme into the initial notes of Ezio's Family as he takes the final piece of eden from the Masyaf vault. If Altair is the mind of Assassin's Creed, Ezio is its soul...

[ToastieBRRRN]

ACR had the best AC trailer in my opinion. Still listen to the song Iron by Woodkid every now and again. Just so nostalgic.

[thisemptyworm]

I love the atmosphere in this game, especially the Animus itself

[CDDub]

The fact that Ezio starts to make connections to the "time travel", both with the isu discs and his knowledge of Desmonds existence, makes you realize he had grown from a stillborn scare to a teenage member of nobility into a veteran Mentor who can put together the Isu plan and Animus's purpose through context clues alone. During the Renaissance. Like you can finally appreciate how much more clever and measured and mature Ezio is after years of being him. You've guided him through the hardest parts of his life and he finally makes the decision to go find peace.

[precision_peter]

Revelations has always been in my top 3 i just love how they wrapped up Ezio's and Altaïr's story. I think people started to realize how good this game is as new AC's got released

[OgLoc]

Dude, Subject 16 saving Desmond from the Animus deletion procedure still gives me chills, the soundtrack, the build up, its my favorite moment from all the AC games.

[redV]

AC Revelations is my favorite one. What this games does for Ezio, Altair and Desmond is incredible in my opinion.

[sebastianesilva]

One of the best aspects of the Ezio games is that feels like you're enjoying a book trilogy, but in videogame form. Seeing Ezio go from birth, to adulthood and eventually to old age and death makes these games feel uniquely special.

[Ramiovillan]

Playing from AC 1 to AC Revelations just from the story alone is what made the ending wrap up the best in the series. It felt a great closure.

[kimsoer]

Thank you for revisiting all 3 Ezio games! I just bought the collection and cannot tell you how nostalgic it makes me feel. I LOVED the trilogy because it brought something different each time without changing too much. Ezio grows and evolves and it makes for a very satisfying experience. Also, who doesn't love Ezio? 🤭👏🏻

[nemer]

I saw Revelations and simply clicked. Favorite video game character of all time. Favorite AC of all time. Nostalgia, great story, good game mechanics, and fantastic voice acting. Simply put, worth a replay every single year.

[edo.creative]

I got into gaming with Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag and then played the rest of the series. Now Im a game designer and it's all thanks to this series. I loved watching your videos and you've actually inspired me to replay all the games (currently almost finished AC1)

BTW I'd love to see a playlist on your channel of all the assassin's Creed reviews and the ranking now that this series is over.

[tepidbalrog]

Totally agree that Revelations is an underappreciated game in the series. It's a fantastic ending on the Ezio trilogy.
One of the changes I like about it is that Ezio actually moves a bit slower than in the previous two games. Given that games, especially AC games, have a power fantasy aspect to them, I wouldn't hold it against the devs to keep Ezio moving at the same pace. But I think it shows their dedication to the character and story. Old man Ezio should be moving slower than the young Ezio in AC2. The animation and sound design of Ezio in Revelations sometimes feels like he's older and more susceptible to aches and pains. Sure, he's way nimbler than I'll ever be at that age but to be slower than his younger self is such good attention to detail.
