This installment is the first one in which our present day character is not Desmond Miles, but rather an unnamed employee of Abstergo in a company building. Basically, the Templars want this information for bad reasons and the Assassins hope to find it to keep it away from the bad guys. This is where the main gameplay comes in, as your animus sessions bring you into the lives of people who lived years ago and as we play through the campaign, the events stored in memories are revealed. A company called Abstergo developed a device called an animus, which allows a person to play back events of their ancestors through coding in their DNA.

It’s been an ongoing fight for thousands of years. In Assassin’s Creed, the formula works like this: part of the game takes place in modern day where your character (Desmond Miles in previous titles) is working with a team that is supporting the Assassins to help prevent the Templars from finding ancient artifacts that hold vast supernatural powers that they want to use to take over the world.

There has been a lot of pirate hype since the Pirates of the Caribbean films came out (thanks, Johnny Depp) and honestly, it is a part of what made this game particularly enjoyable for me, though pirates have always been fascinating, even before they became big on the silver screen.
#Assassins creed black flag xbox 360 series
Avast ye scurvy dogs!!! It’s time to talk about the latest installment of the Assassin’s Creedseries, Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, which, as you may have already figured out, is about flippin’ pirates! It was a logical step in the series as previous titles have taken us back to the Middle East during the crusades, the Italian Renaissance, Constantinople, and the American Revolution, so now we focus on the 18 th century Caribbean during the height of the age of pirates.
