Assassin's Creed Chronicles Release Date: February 9, 2016 (Complete Trilogy release) Developer: Climax Studios Publisher: Ubisoft Series: Assassin's Creed Platforms: PS4 Playstation Vita XBox One PC Genre: Stealth

Assassin's Creed Chronicles is a spin-off episodic trilogy of the Assassin's Creed series, moving the action to a 2.5D stealth format similar to Mark of the Ninja.

Each Episode follows a different assassin with a different art-style to fit each location:

China takes place in 1526 China following the events of Assassin's Creed Embers following Shao Jun, who has returned to China following the events of the short film to take revenge on the Templar after they wiped out the Chinese Brotherhood.

India is set in 1841 following Arbaaz Mir as he attempts to steal back the Koh-i-Noor diamond from the Templar during the first Anglo-Afghan War.

Russia is set during the October Revolution in 1918 with Nikolai Orelov, who is sent on one final mission by the Assassins and finds himself protecting Anastasia Nikolaevna after saving her.

Each installment follows the same game-play formula with tweaks to fit each game's setting.

The following weapons appear in the video game Assassin's Creed Chronicles:

China

Crossbow

Two different models of Crossbow appear being used by guards. "Crossbowman" use a small crossbow that fires slowly while "Heavy Crossbowman" carry a larger two handed crossbow that can fire rapidly.

Ming Dynasty Musket

What the game calls the "Ming Dynasty Musket" appears again after previously appearing in Embers and is used by Handcannon guards. While the crossbows have a line that turns white-to-red indicating when they will fire, the Musket only has it's fuse burning down as an indicator.

India

Jezail Musket

The Jezail Musket is used by Sikh guards in India with it's long length preventing the player from rolling over guards after blocking a melee attack.

Jezail Musket

"British troops took lots of damage from these weapons during the Anglo-Afghan Wars. References to this weapon are notably found in some of Rudyard Kipling's famous works, including "The Man Who Would be King".

Brown Bess Flintlock Musket

East India Company Riflemen use the Brown Bess Flintlock Musket. Arbaaz briefly makes use of one himself in sequence 8 which is aimed through a scope that isn't visible on the actual firearm as well as being semi-automatic that is also oddly left behind at every sniper nest, only for Abraaz to suddenly have a new one upon reaching the next nest that he promptly leaves behind again.

Modern reproduction "Long Land Pattern" Brown Bess Infantry musket made from 1722-1768 - .75 caliber.

"First, the classification of those rifles was made by referring to the land of use. These were called "land patterns." The British India Companies had their own standard, the "India Pattern" that specified a barrel length and over all weight and length."

Abraaz picks up the rifle next to a sniper nest.

"Repeater Rifle"

East India Company Snipers carry what the game calls a "Repeater Rifle"

Blunderbuss

The Blunderbuss returns from Freedom Cry and Unity but unlike those games it is only used by "Highlander" enemies.

"Like all muzzle-loaded weapons, blunderbusses could be used to fire all kinds of scrap material, metal, stone, even wood, which often resulted damaging the weapon itself. Apart from being a preferred weapon of bandits and pirates, the blunderbuss was generally associated with mounted or naval forces, since it was lightweight and easy to handle in close quarters or with limited mobility."

"Puckle Gun"

The "Puckle gun" appears as as a mounted weapon used by some enemies. Like in Rogue is is inaccurately depicted as functioning like a fast firing machine gun.

Berdan Rifle

Mosin-Nagant Rifle

The Mosin Nagant Rifle is used by the Red Army.

Nikolai's Rifle

Nikolai uses what is claimed to be a modified Berdan Rifle in the Database, personally modified by Fedor Tokarev for Nikolai.

"As a result, Orelov's rifle is strangely silent, while not completely, and still quite powerful at short and middle range. From Tokarev's own words, the system may be tweaked and tested, so chances are that Orelov himself can find better positions or attachment devices to increase the efficiency of the silencer."

Pressure Mine

"Pressure Mines" that omit a yellow light and explode if Nikolai or Anastasia walk over them, guards can walk past them safely due to having a "Magnetic Key" with Nikolai/Anastasia able to get past them by either sticking close to a guard or stealing the key from them.
