Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood continues Ezio’s story as he takes on the Borgia family’s control of Renaissance Rome. As a Master Assassin, he works to undermine their power and rally the city’s people to his cause.
Explore Rome on foot and across rooftops, using parkour to navigate its districts. Carry out assassinations through stealth or fight guards with weapons and tools including hidden blades, poison darts, and a crossbow.
Recruit citizens into the Assassin Brotherhood, train them through assignments, and call them to aid you in combat. Bring down Borgia towers, renovate shops and landmarks, and complete story missions and side activities to expand your influence and unlock support around the city.
Players frequently praise the detailed city of Rome, Ezio’s continuing story, and the recruit system, which lets them build and command an Assassin Brotherhood. Many also enjoy the combat and the range of activities in the open world.
