Assassin’s Creed Unity is set in 1789 amidst the French Revolution, a turbulent yet crucial period in human history that helped establish democracy as we know it by putting more power into the hands of the people. Fittingly, the team at Ubisoft Montreal is putting more power into the hands of Assassin’s Creed players with this, the first instalment of its marquee open world franchise to be designed solely for next-gen hardware. Player freedom is encouraged in all facets of the Unity experience, from how you tackle each mission to how you tailor your clothes, and it was the resounding takeaway from my time with Unity at Gamescom 2014.
How each assassination plays out is now a far less structured process. The hands-off single-player mission shown in the Gamescom demo began, as AC missions often do, on a rooftop - in this instance adjacent to the meticulously recreated Notre Dame cathedral. Main character Arno was informed by an associate that the mark - a criminal named Sivert - was inside the heavily guarded cathedral, but from there it was up to the player to determine how best to infiltrate it.
