Are you ready for more Assassins Creed? If you have not played this game yet then it’s about time you started because the game is really quite fantastic. I had no idea a sequel was being made to this game until today! How great is that! If you like the game anyway. The main character of the game is Ezio who is “a young noble whose family was lost through rival ruling families’ betrayals.”The game takes place in Venice during the Renaissance.
