History VideoGame / AssassinsCreedRevelations

-->I am a tactless minstrel,
I sing off-key for coins,
If you see me in the street,

* ActionGirl: Shao Jun, an Assassin from China appears in ''Embers''. There are also various female Templar as multiplayer characters.

* AllThereInTheManual: Or rather, the encyclopedia.

* BadBoss: Leandros insults his men, pulls one who'd come to his rescue from his carriage out of mere spite and throws another off a rooftop in an attempt to slow Ezio.

* BagOfSpilling: The trailer indicates that Ezio will lose at least one of his hidden blades during a battle with Templar soldiers. As screenshots show him with a hookblade in its place, its easy to see why this happens. Confirmed: Ezio gets disarmed before gameplay starts and when he gets some weapons back, he has only one Hidden Blade left.

* ButtMonkey: [[spoiler:Duccio de Luca]] will have, assuming one fulfills the corresponding achievement/trophy, the ignominy of being beaten up by Ezio in ''all three games of the Ezio Auditore trilogy''. (Ironically, he's also be the ''only'' other returning character from the other two games' historical portion.)

* ContestWinnerCameo: The piece that plays while [[spoiler: Altair talks in the Black Room with a usurper he just shot]] features a singer chosen by a contest that asked people to use the main theme as a base for a song.

* CoolOldGuy: Ezio is ''fifty-two years old''. ''Revelations'' is also being billed as Ezio's final chapter.

* CosmeticallyAdvancedPrequel: Thanks to the engine upgrades (Both out-of-game and for the Animus), Altair and Al Mualim look a touch more detailed than they did in the original ''AssassinsCreed''.

* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin[=/=]ShapedLikeItself: The hookblade has been described to Ezio as having two parts; one hook, one blade.
* FinishingStomp: Carried over from ''Brotherhood''.

* MayDecemberRomance: The ''Embers'' trailer shows a post ''Revelations'' Ezio with his wife, who looks like she's in her late twenties/maybe early thirties.

*** It could also be that these memories of Altair are being viewed from a different Animus: Abstergo's Animus channeled Altair's voice with an American accent to make him seem more acceptable to the user and thus help with synchronization. The Assassins' Animus, on the other hand, translates with native accents as, {{Lampshaded}} by the second game, the Animus 2.0 has issues with translation.
* SuperweaponSurprise: Altaïr has apparently hidden one in a vault under Masyaf, requiring all his seals to open it.

-->'''Altaïr:''' I learned many things from the Apple. Of life and death, of the past and the future. Let me show you...

-->'''Tutorial:''' [[spoiler: [[WhamLine Use the gun to kill [your target].]]

-->'''Altaïr:''' I learned many things from the Apple. Of life and death, of the past and the future. Let me show you... [[spoiler: *BLAM*]]

* BagOfSpilling: The trailer indicates that Ezio will lose at least one of his hidden blades during a battle with Templar soldiers. As screenshots show him with a hookblade in its place, its easy to see why this happens.

* ActionGirl: Shao Jun, a mute Assassin from China appears in ''Embers''.

* CurbStompBattle: While unarmed, Ezio physically curbstomps enemies as a finishing move.

* ContinuityNod: In one mission, Ezio dresses as a bard and sings about various events from the previous two games.

* BadBoss: Leandros insults his men, and even throws one off a rooftop in an attempt to slow Ezio.

* GettingTooOldForThis: While climbing up a moving water wheel:
-->'''Ezio''': This used to be so easy.

* AnnoyingArrows: Ezio treats that arrow to the shoulder like a mosquito bite. [[FridgeBrilliance Looking closer, you can see it hit his armor.]]

So far, little is known about the game. It was announced in early May by Ubisoft's ''Assassin's Creed'' {{Facebook}} fan page using a small ARG.

'''''Assassin's Creed: Revelations''''' is the latest announced entry in the ''[=~Assassin's Creed~=]'' series.

Revelations will place you in control of the three primary characters in the Assassin's Creed story: Ezio Auditore from ''[=~Assassin's Creed II~=]'' and ''[=~Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood~=]'', Altaïr ibn La-Ahad from the [[AssassinsCreed first game]], and Desmond Miles - the descendant that links all the Assassins together. Ezio and Altaïr will have their stories completed in this game.

* RecursiveReality: The player is controlling Desmond, who's experiencing his ancestor Ezio's life, who in this game will occasionally experience Altaïr's life as he gathers the Seals of Altaïr, which basically act as mini-Animuses to him. And no, this is not MindScrew yet, at least not by ''[=~Assassin's Creed~=]'' standards.

* HannibalLecture: These return in Altair's segments, although with a slightly greater touch of realism: Altair kills a victim with a gut stab rather than a neck piercing, thus neatly explaining why said victim can still talk for a few minutes.
