Assassin’s Creed Chronological Order: In Which Order To Play The Entire Saga?

We have a new killer (i there are several). Three years after Valhalla, the saga returns to its roots Assassin’s Creed Miragea smaller part (MeriStation’s analysis here) that pays homage to the originals and leaves out the open worlds in pursuit of stealth, assassinations and parkour. With so many titles under their belt, more than one will have given up on the saga along the way and will now be wondering in what order they should approach their return. But how there is no unequivocal answer, today we are going to offer you some alternatives. Their release order, story chronology, and historical setting.

We distinguish between major releases and minor releases because Ubisoft has released a wide variety of games over the years and for all platforms. Some of the stories are adapted and integrated into the official chronology, such as in Assassin’s Creed III: Liberation or Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines, but they only serve to outline the context of the time or the history of the characters involved. They hardly contribute to the main plot. However, we will leave the various add-ons and DLC linked to the main sections so as not to confuse the list even more. So we start in order based on release date:

Essential parts of Assassin’s Creed

Secondary parts of Assassin’s Creed

Now let’s look at the second way to approach the series: what if we ordered a story. One of the advantages of this method is that it allows you to start playing the latest games in the series: Assassin’s Creed Origins, Odyssey, Mirage and Valhalla, since they act as prequels, and They are one of his best deliveries.

It is better to start with them so that if it makes us sad in the end and we deny that at least we have tasted its best fruits. We’ll include some in this list as well accompanying films which Ubisoft did back in the day. They are free and enrich the experience.

How to play Assassin’s Creed in order?

Below we offer a list with all Assassin’s Creed titles for play the entire saga in order of the story of the video game itself:

Another possibility is to try to restore the chronology by replaying the titles depending on the historical period in which they occur. The problem is that doing it chronologically produces dissonances between parts of the past and the present. For example, although Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag and Assassin’s Creed Rogue are set in the historical period before Assassin’s Creed III, the modern parts are not very well understood without playing the first one.

But if you’re interested only in the era and not so much in the internal coherence of the plot of the present, you may be better off facing the adventure in chronological order according to the era under consideration. Therefore, we also leave you the latest list at this address.

Assassin’s Creed according to its historical setting

In the following list you will find all the names of the saga ordered by the historical moment and setting of the game itself:

Finally, we remind fans of the saga that a few months ago Ubisoft confirmed that it was working on Assassin’s Creed Infinity, the final title that will bring the various stories together as a platform/gaming service. There’s still a lot to know about it, but it wants to launch as a freebie. We will see.
