The name appeared in 2009, when players had the opportunity to get acquainted with a unique computer world full of architectural embellishments. There has never been such an experience in the gaming industry, and even now. Many companies are simply unable to repeat this.
“The killer’s faith” - what is it?
Assassin's Creed: what is it? In a nutshell: an open world game in the scenery of Italian cities. The only project at that time from the Ubisoft company where it was possible to truly change the course of world history, albeit in the virtual world.
The entire game plot was built around a young man named Ezio, who decided to avenge the Templars for the death of his father. However, the desire to kill one person led the guy to the center of the age-old confrontation between the two forces.
It was Ezio that was remembered by all the players in the second and subsequent parts of the computer series. Altaira can be considered a character who began to tell such a fascinating story.
By the way, at the moment the game series "Assassin's Creed" has seven parts, except for add-ons and other additions.
Book series
As for the books, a literary creation called "Assassin’s Creed" appeared in two thousand and ten. Posted by Oliver Bowden. The most amazing thing is that on the Internet more than once flashed information about the cooperation of the writer with the Ubisoft company and about the book series itself as an additional way of public relations of the computer game itself.
How much is this possible? On the Russian-language website "Webplanta" there is official confirmation that the release of the new book series "Assassin's Creed" is planned in two thousand and seventeen.
What is the audience?
If we recall the story of the release of books from another series, "Stalker", then the category of readers becomes clear - these are fans of a computer game. Assassin’s computer licensed discs were sold in million copies, which clearly indicates a large audience of those who like to combine gameplay on the display with reading.
In total, eight books were published, at least those that can be freely bought online. However, it is planned to release new works that will affect the events of the fourth part of the game - “Black Flag”, and a year later the sequel - “Unity” will be released. Information about the "Syndicate" or "Outcast" is not yet available.
There are certain difficulties with the order of reading books - books are mostly tied to different game moments, but each of them is a story isolated from the others.
Let's try to make a rough list of Assassin’s Creed. Books in order are conditionally arranged like this:
- The Secret Crusade.
- "Revival."
- The Brotherhood (both books).
- "Revelations."
- "Renaissance".
- "Abandoned".
- "Black flag".
