Assassin's Creed Description

While the exact details are unclear, historians agree that the origin of the term "assassin" stems from a Muslim cult that came to power during the Crusades. Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed casts the player in the role of one of these assassins. The gameplay appears to blend stealth elements (Ubisoft calls it social stealth because the player often attempts to blend into the crowd) with more traditional sword-fighting.

Mature Titles rated "Mature (M)" have content suitable for persons ages 17 and older. These products may include more intense violence or language than products in the Teen category. In addition, these titles may also include mature sexual themes.
