Defend Assassin Hideouts
Ezio Auditore walks in the footsteps of the legendary mentor Altair, on a dangerous journey of discovery and revelation.
Developed by Ubisoft Montreal · Published by Ubisoft






In Assassin's Creed Revelations, an older Ezio Auditore travels to Constantinople seeking answers and following the legacy of Altair, while Templar forces threaten the region. The story also returns to Desmond and the Animus.
Explore the city on foot and across its rooftops, using parkour, stealth, combat, and Eagle Vision to navigate and confront enemies. A hookblade adds ways to climb and travel along ziplines, while crafted bombs offer different approaches to encounters.
Take missions and activities around the city, recruit Assassins, and work to control districts that may need defending. The story unfolds through Ezio's journey, sequences drawn from Altair's memories, and sections focused on Desmond.
In the supplied reviews, players repeatedly appreciate the story's conclusion to Ezio's journey and its links to Altair, as well as Constantinople's atmosphere and the hookblade's effect on traversal. Some also praise the soundtrack and characters. Criticism often focuses on the required Ubisoft launcher and repeated logins, missing or inaccessible single-player content, and technical problems such as crashes or controller setup difficulties.
