Assassin's Creed Revelations
Assassin's Creed Revelations, développé par Ubisoft Montreal et édité par Ubisoft Entertainment, est sorti le 14 novembre 2011 sur PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 et PC. Ce jeu d'aventure en vue à la troisième personne mêle action, infiltration et escalade, et se déroule principalement à Constantinople au début de l'Empire ottoman. Le joueur incarne un Ezio Auditore vieillissant à la recherche de cinq clés permettant d'ouvrir la bibliothèque bâtie par Altair, avec des séquences de flashbacks jouables en tant qu'Altair et des sections de plates-formes à la première personne en tant que Desmond Miles. Le gameplay intègre une lame-crochet pour se déplacer plus vite et utiliser des tyroliennes, un système de fabrication de bombes et un mini-jeu de défense de tour, tandis que le mode multijoueur de Brotherhood revient avec des cartes, personnages et modes étendus. L'histoire, située en 1511, voit Ezio se rendre à Masyaf puis à Constantinople, où il se lie d'amitié avec le chef assassin Yusuf Tazim et le prince Suleiman, rencontre la libraire Sofia Sartor, et affronte une faction de Templiers byzantins exploitant la guerre civile entre les princes Ahmet et Selim. Le moteur Anvil et la protection Uplay sont utilisés, et le jeu affichait un prix de 4,49 euros. Selon les données recueillies, la presse a salué l'ampleur du contenu et l'importance de la narration, certains joueurs déclarant préférer ce volet pour son chara-design et sa représentation d'Istanbul, tandis que d'autres regrettent des difficultés de lancement liées à Ubisoft. Depuis le 25 janvier 2024, les fonctionnalités multijoueur et en ligne ne sont plus disponibles.

Avis des critiques et joueurs
Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« It's an incredibly big game - the amount of secrets, side missions or challenges can be overwhelming even for an experienced fan of the series. What is surprising is a very high quality of almost all these elements. Beginning with an engrossing storyline, ending with a well done system of making your own grenades. With a project of that scale it was hard to be perfect - defending your hideouts could be made better and long loading screens can frustrate a little. »
« If you are already invested in the series then playing Revelations isn't even an option - it's mandatory. The story is just too important, and frankly, this is the best in the series when it comes to story and action sequences, and not even misplaced tower defense distraction and endless city domination missions can hold it back. »
« Revelations closes the Assassin's Creed journey with a familiar looking videogame, but with a new iteration so epic and amazing as you might expect. It's a worthy end for the first volume of the series. »
« Revelations does whatever it promises: it puts an end to the trilogy who made Assassin's Creed so successful on the market. Several new additions for the gameplay and wonderfully-crafted secondary missions add the right amount of contents to this sequel. »
« Those who didn't like previous game won't enlist in the Assassin guild, but it is must-have for fans of the series as it reveals some secrets of the story. Shorter than the previous games, but with a better story, it consolidates the multiplayer mode adding extra variety. »
« This game has taken the best points from the first three titles, and improved upon them yet again. It comes highly recommended: it looks great, it sounds great, it plays great. It's great. »
« With the release of Revelations, Ubisoft have finally turned their initial concept into a truly unmissable game. Pulling the narrative together alongside some vital gameplay additions, this is the best, most complete Assassin's Creed title to date. »
« Revelations is quite similar to Brotherhood, but there are a lot of minor additions that make it an excellent game. On the other hand, Ubisoft can't go on for long updating this glorious franchise every year with such improvements. »
Avis des Joueurs (Metacritic)
« [SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.] »
« Mon préféré de la trilogie d'ezio ! Superbe charadesign du protagoniste, et une ville d'istanbul magnifique »
« Forgettable villain but that’s kinda the only issue with this. The story is probably the best in the series with Ezio learning about Altair. »
« Super awesome game, first Assassins Creed I ever played and I recommend it still to this day. »
« A mio parere, il miglior capitolo finora. Il gameplay è decisamente rifinito rispetto a Brotherhood, più coerente e molto piacevole. Soprattutto il parkour, con la lama uncinata, è piacevolissimo dopo 3 capitoli di molta frustrazione non necessaria. La storia è coerente, funziona, i dialoghi sono più credibili (eccezione per il **** di Sofia). Il finale è riuscito a strapparmi delle reazioni emotive che i precedenti capitoli non erano riusciti a darmi. La backstory data ad Altair è magnifica, strappalacrime, con il giusto livello di autorevolezza che caratterizza il primo protagonista. Infine, l'ambientazione è piacevolissima, limitando gli spazi aperti che tanto penalizzavano soprattutto Brotherhood. Assassin's Creed è un gioco cittadino, nato in medio oriente, ed è lì che meglio si esprime. »
« Assassin's creed revelations ist für mich der perfekte Abschluss für die Ezio Trilogie und dass man vorallem Altair wieder spielen kann macht das Spiel noch besser. »
« [SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.] »
« The third and final entry in the "Ezio" trilogy is the weakest. It links Ezio's latter days with the past adventures of Altair, the protagonist of the first "Assassin's Creed". Gameplay is fun, but it lacks the freshness of AC II and the excitement of "Brotherhood". Still, this is a must play for fans of Ezio. I'd rate it with an 8.1 out of 10. »
