The episode in India will have pencil lines and archaic newspaper print mixed with flourishes of lotus flowers when Arbaaz leaps across the screen. Finally, the adventure of Nikolai in the 20th century will be based on the strong colors of the revolutionary propaganda and the and the monochrome backdrop of early black and white photography.. - The games, like the other Assassin's Creed chapters, will allorw to jump from buildings, open chests and collect Animus shards - China will present an extended tutorial, which Climax, the developer studio, said will be condensed in later episodes, although the series can be played in any order - If the mechanics seem similar to those of the previous installments of the series, the levels, however, will vary - from time-sensitive platforming sections where the only goal is to keep running through crumbling columns to sections full of enemies where the player must carefully choose the path to follow. - According to Eurogamer, the stealth parts of the game are very well developed, even more than in the recent AC chapters - The player will be able to whistle, use smoke bombs and fire distractions. It will also be possible to lift and hide the bodies of the enemies. - The player will be able to see "graphically" the guards' vision cones - Later levels have a higher dose of exploration with large areas that must be picked through carefully to unlock new paths to progress - An aged Ezio will make an appearance in a flashback (but his voice will not be the original one by Roger Craig Smith) - The fans will get to know something more about the mysterious box (from Embers) passed on by Ezio to Shao Jun. Its contents will act as a macguffin for her storyline while she will clash with a group of enemies financed by the Templars, who will try to control the country through a puppet emperor. |
