Assassin’s Creed Games’ Timeline Explained

The Assassin’s Creed franchise has a lot going for it. Back when the first Assassin’s Creed released in 2007, there were few big-budget stealth open-world games on the market, and over the next few years the Assassin’s Creed series quickly filled that niche with its unique blend of parkour, stealth, and combat. But while those are all core parts of Assassin’s Creed‘s identity, they aren’t usually what set the series apart from its competition. Instead, it’s often Assassin’s Creed‘s historical setting that’s the series’ biggest selling point.
