Assassin's Creed II is a third person action-adventure video game developed by Ubisoft Montreal and published by Ubisoft for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 video game consoles, and Microsoft Windows. It is the second video game installment of the Assassin's Creed series and is a direct sequel to the 2007 video game Assassin's Creed. The game is set in 2012, with player-controlled protagonist Desmond Miles escaping from Abstergo Industries with an employee, Lucy Stillman, after being forced to relive the genetic memories of ancestral assassin Altaïr ibn La-Ahad through a machine known as the "Animus." After escaping from Abstergo, Desmond enters a device identical to the Animus and relives the genetic memories of ancestral nobleman Ezio Auditore da Firenze, who lived during the Renaissance period of the late fifteenth century in Italy. The player controls Ezio, who becomes an Assassin after his father and brothers are murdered by a traitor to the Auditore family. While controlling Ezio, the player can explore game renditions of Italian cities, regions and landmarks in open world gameplay. The gameplay is a mixture of action, stealth and platforming.

A sequel that triumphs over the original in every possible way.

8.0
The PC version of last year's beautiful action adventure is lots of fun, but you'll have to overcome its online-only copy protection and high price point.

Virtual ratings prevent games with a small number of positive reviews from dominating the top of our rankings. See our FAQ.

Saints Row: The Third - Reviews

8.1
based on 5 top critics

8.5
Fantastic missions, outrageous weapons, and awesome vehicles make the open-world mayhem of Saints Row: The Third an absolute blast.

8.0
Watching just one of the promotional videos for ‘The Third’ will tell you that any attempts to ape GTAs sincerity have been wholly abandoned.

8.5
An open world adult theme park where we can treat ourselves to delightful acts of bloodshed and perversion.

8.0
The Saints are back, and more insane than ever.

7.7
We haven't seen a game so full of things like rampaging sex workers, bizarre celebrity cameos, and over-the-top setpieces like this before.
