Another great addition to the Assassins franchise! Gameplay is slightly different to previous instalments but is every bit as gripping and addictive as the others!

Arrived early, son loves it, excellently awesome game according to him!!

As far as assassins creed games go I found Unity quite poor. It has some new features which are very good such as the free running down buildings which is very useful. But other than that for me the game has nothing new in it and personally I think is worse than most other games in the franchise.

I never liked Assassin's Creed until Black Flag was released. Might be because the very first Assassin's Creed was my first console game. After being a PC gamer for the whole life (minus 5-6 last years or so) I was struggling with controls, so threw the game away. Assassin's Creed 2 was also something I didn't like so I skipped all the other games until Black Flag was released. I loved Black Flag so much that I almost did everything the game had to offer. Once I saw the first Unity video - I fell in love with the game. But I have't touched it for months after buying the disk since, as everyone knows, it had massive technical problems. I don't know how many patches had been rolled out, but I started playing the game in late April and still it crashed for me 3 or 4 times. Now, after finishing all 12 chapters and doing most of other things in the game World I can comment on all its strong and weak points. Let me start with the strong ones being the graphics (it's gorgeous), environment (Paris is one of my favourites in real life), huge crowds of people populating the environment, story, enemies (way tougher than in Black Flag), weapons (many options there), co-op missions (really interesting if your 1-3 buddies don't act like Rambo) and missions. Even with such big game World Ubisoft somehow managed to avoid obvious repetitions and made the game interesting from the very beginning to its end. I'm now playing Dead Kings DLC, so the game really sucked me in. I spent around 30 hours in there and still there are quite many things I can do (won't do them all, obviously - there are many other games waiting for their turn). But as in any other game - there are issues. The biggest ones being technical. I mentioned crashes already (thank God they didn't match auto saving times), but there are occasional enemy AI issues (a few times some enemies were standing and walking or trying to go through the wall) and really odd crowd appearing/disappearing problems. Once even one glitch made me reload the last checkpoint since I was going for all the challenges (100% sync) and had to follow one guy in a missions undetected and there were 3 enemies standing and acting strange in my way (reloading that checkpoint solved it). Also 2 or 3 times I had serious frame rate issues with 1 case being during a co-op mission where I had to run away from the enemies (they almost killed me because of those lags). These are the problems I faced and they made me lower the game score by 1 star. I can name 2 more "issues" some players could face which never bothered me. First one would be levelling up. If you are not doing any side activities and not taking it stealthy enough it's highly likely that you'll be dying a lot. Better weapons and clothes cost quite a bit - add this on top of the fact that the enemies are tougher this time and you will probably be playing Bloodborne before you know it. Second "issue" is something so-called achievement/trophy hunters (aka people with no life) will face - in order to get all the trophies you'll need to open all the chests in the game and there are almost 300. Big part of them needs their locks to be picked and some locks aren't simple. I can imagine that you would need to waste at least 10 hours just to gather them all sounds like...fun. I was opening all the chests that were on my way and still only opened 40%. I'm sure that there are other time-consuming and monotonous trophies, but don't think anything can beat such boring collectible-related one. To sum it up - we have a new Assassin's Creed game which is better than any previous Assassin's Creed game in some areas (graphics, crowds and tougher enemies) and way worse in others (hello, technical issues). Can I recommend it? Yes, especially at this price. I do hope that the next game where the story takes place in London will be way less buggy.

Great game at a great price. Half price of asda and tesco with a prompt free delivery. Will be getting all of my games from zavvi

What can I say? It felt new and fresh for once. Yes, it had fewer gameplay mechanics than previous games, that is something very odd as series usually move forward. However what is here is very fun and feels good with even the side quests being varied this time around. The story is pretty interesting compared to recent AC games and it looks pretty good except for some notable graphical glitches among the crowds of Paris. To conclude, it's still easy to recommend to fans of the series or just open world games. 4/5

Its a really good game. Its more divers than black flag. But beware there are still alot of bugs in the game.

I am a fan of assassins, The game continues were Rogue stopped. The story of Arnold starts. The game is fresh giving a good look on Versailles and Paris . The hd of ps 4 makes it look wonderful and the price perfect makes it a perfect deal

Superb graphics, tweaked mechanics (improved traversal and harder batlles), interesting setting, nice story, great puzzles. Solid purchase for AC fans and newcomers alike!

Great addition to the series, excellent graphics and fluid gameplay
