    GAMEPLAY: Awesome as always. Same formula over and over and we can't get enough of it except for the Den Defense. Ubisoft tried to innovate but this mode is not a good one.
    ONLINE: Started with Brotherhood and continued with Revelations. No problems here. You'll spend a lot of time playing it. Yes it's that good.
    Hope we see the end of Ezio with Revelations but i have no reason to be sad with this installment.    … Expand

    Although the game offers some of the best graphics this generation, there is no denying that the tower defence element that the game introduces to the series is a needless and frustrating addition to the series especially for people like me who have no desire of interest in the tower defence genre

    Sadly Revelations is probably the worst in the series, it is still a better game than 1 but, unlike 1 it lacks innovation. To it takes steps back words in combat i found it worse than Brotherhood. the story is an improvement over Brotherhood at least. All the additions in this game failed to be any good, tower defense, Desmond sections. It was pretty disappointing,

    Assassin's Creed vuelve exitosamente por la cuarta entrega de la saga, y les digo que es un juego digno de jugar como los anteriores títulos, si bien para mi gusto no supera a las últimas dos entregas, es un juego como siempre totalmente divertido y un sand box imperdible con animaciones y gráficos punzantes.

    More of the same for the second time. Which isn't a bad thing considering how fun the Assassin's Creed games are and how interesting their unique story is. The new setting is the only refreshment to be seen here though. Oh, almost forgot to mention the weird tower defence minigame. That's definitely something new, but... wth?

    9.5 (rounded up to 10).

    Revelations can be summed up in one word: remarkable. For a series that produces entries every year, it is amazing that things are this good.

    Revelations can be summed up in one word: remarkable. For a series that produces entries every year, it is amazing that things are this good. Skylanders is a major cash in and COD has been lacking innovation since MW2, but every Assassin's Creed has been amazing and addictive. Revelations is no exception.

    It kicks off with a beautiful cinematic, that sees an aged Ezio travelling to Masyaf to uncover the secrets of his ancestor Altair. Captured and about to be killed, he makes a brave escape and so begins the most memorable first level in series history, which gives us an assassination in the first hour. Once again, story is high priority. The present day sections are very disappointing (first person puzzle levels should be left to Portal), but Ezio is as entertaining as ever. This time he's in Constantiople (the smallest open world in series history, but also the most believable and lifelike) and he's got a few tasks to complete: he becomes embroiled in a war between two factions, is still after the Templars, is managing his duties as Master Assassin, is chasing down mysterious memory discs and is wooing a new woman. Busy fella! The story is longer than Brotherhood's and is more effective, even if there really isn't a main villain and way too many supporting characters.

    The gameplay has barely changed. The economy is simpler, but more refreshing, the combat hasn't really gotten any new features (weapons are all that changes the gameplay) and the free running is still as fluid, even if Ezio is about to pop out a hip bone. The hook blade is a great weapon though and zipping around town is a brilliant experience that thrills. So what is innovated- the brotherhood mechanics mostly. Gathering an army of assassins still feels empowering and levelling them up and giving them new gear is rewarding in its own little way. The base attacks are just plain bad though. The new tower defence mechanics are pretty polished and work well, but why are they in Assassin's Creed? It really feels like Ubisoft was scraping the bottom of the barrel for new ideas before the innovative third numbered entry. Thankfully, I rarely had to do any.

    Multiplayer returns, with new modes, new missions and new characters. It still feels out of place in AC cannon, but at least it is better than those first person puzzles (I really don't like those). Some great moments can be produced, but I'd rather chase collectibles, assemble my factions and complete side missions in the main game.

    Don't believe the reviews because Revelations isn't the weakest entry in AC. It doesn't deserve a 7.5 or a 6, because it is still highly polished, with good graphics, great sound and plenty of content. Enjoy it for what it is, not what it could be!    … Expand

    Revelations follows master assassin Ezio Auditore as he walks in the footsteps of his legendary mentor, Altair, on a journey to recover five ancient seals that hold the keys to the future of the Assassins brotherhood. It's a perilous path - one that will take Ezio to Constantinople, the heart of the Ottoman Empire, where a growing army of Templars threatens to destabilize the region.

    Unfortunately for all intents and purposes, Revelations feels very much like Brotherhood. The story feels a little vague at times, but mainly stays consistent.

    Very little has been added. The hookblade allows you to slide along ziplines and the Den Defense mini-game is frustratingly difficult.

    The musical score deserves praise for maintaining the tone of the game and the characters both remain historically and contextually relevant.

    Altair's role in the game is another point of interest, although his missions are slightly over-simplified.

    Sometimes the game feels like filler material, other times it maintains it's integrity.

    Overall, it's another worthy instalment in what is proving to be a highly popular series.    … Expand

    "Revelations" is a nice finale to the Ezio/Altair era of "Assassin's Creed". It's entertaining, but there's very little new that has been added to the formula. Most players will agree that this fourth entry is weaker than its two predecessors. I liked it, but it's not a very innovative entry. I would give this an 8.2 out of 10.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Revelations is a terrific conclusion to not only one of the greatest video game protagonists, Ezio Auditore da Firenze but also a conclusion for the character from the original title, Altaïr Ibn-LaʼAhad. The final game in the trilogy begins with a wonderful CGI cutscene that transitions into a great first mission set to a beautiful score that really signifies that this is the beginning of the end of the story for both of these characters. Although there are some questionable gameplay additions like the very quickly tiring tower defense strategy mission by the end of the story you are left satisfied with how both Ezio and Altair were handled as well as where the future of the franchise is headed.… Expand

    Ezio and Altair, the most famous assassins in videogames, end their mythical stories with Revelations, stories that are better than any videogame because they are realistic, possible and make us smile and shiver with joy while we play them. If there is one criticism of the title, it is that it HAS AN ENDING for such iconic and well-made characters.
