Assassin's Creed Revelations for Xbox 360
Assassin's Creed Revelations for Xbox 360 is an action adventure in which the older Ezio Auditore travels to Constantinople. He searches for keys that bring him closer to Altaïr's hidden knowledge, while the struggle between Assassins and Templars continues. You move across rooftops, follow people through busy streets and use the crowds to disappear from view. The city offers narrow passages, tall towers and different routes towards a target, letting you choose your approach.
The hookblade helps Ezio jump farther and lets him slide along ziplines. You also use it to get past an opponent. You craft bombs from collected components: smoke can cover your escape and a distraction can draw a guard from his position. A chase therefore involves more than running faster. Your combination of route, tool and timing determines how much attention you attract and how you disappear again.
You recruit Assassins again, send them on assignments and summon their help during the campaign. When your dens come under attack, you place defenders and barricades. Separate memories also let you play as Altaïr. This is the original Xbox 360 game from 2011, not a later remaster or special edition with extras. Ubisoft has ended online multiplayer; this description is based on the single-player adventure.
Region and language
Our Xbox 360 games are PAL editions and come with a Dutch or English box, unless stated otherwise. By default, you receive the version for the European market. We note it in the product details if the region is different or the box is in another language. In almost all cases, the game is playable at least in English, and often in the other five common European languages too.
Manual
Assassin's Creed Revelations for Xbox 360 was originally released without a printed manual. This edition therefore does not come with a separate instruction booklet. Its absence does not mean that an item from the original packaging is missing.
Instructions for the controls and rules are provided in the game. Any additional leaflets or advertising inserts are not manuals and are only included if stated in the product details. We use the label “No Manual” for copies missing a manual that was originally supplied. You should therefore not expect a printed booklet with this game unless a special edition explicitly states otherwise.
The history of Assassin's Creed Revelations
Assassin's Creed Revelations appeared on Xbox 360 in 2011 and concluded Ezio's series following Assassin's Creed II and Brotherhood. Ubisoft developed it across several studios, with a core team in Montreal. The series had by then adopted an annual release schedule, but this instalment primarily aimed to connect earlier storylines. Ezio's search for Altaïr again placed the first game's hero alongside the protagonist who had taken centre stage since the second instalment.
Constantinople moved the adventure from Italy to the Ottoman Empire. This gave Ezio new allies and political tensions, but the familiar combination of climbing, stealth and combat remained. The hookblade changed how you moved around the city. Crafting bombs and defending dens added different decisions to street fighting. Ubisoft also retained recruiting Assassins, a system Brotherhood had introduced a year earlier.
Revelations also advanced Desmond's modern-day story, while Altaïr's memories filled in earlier events. Online multiplayer expanded at the original release, but it can no longer be promised as a working feature: Ubisoft ended Xbox 360 services on 1 October 2022. The Ezio Collection later bundled updated editions for other consoles. The standard Xbox 360 version remains separate; extra downloadable content or material from a special edition is not automatically included on this disc.
Similar games for Xbox 360
Assassin's Creed for Xbox 360 introduces Altaïr and the conflict during the Crusades. Revelations returns to that protagonist through playable memories, but its largest playground belongs to Ezio in Constantinople. The first game distinctly builds up assassinations through investigation. Revelations provides more tools, including the hookblade and crafted bombs, and connects two life stories.
Assassin's Creed II for Xbox 360 lets you follow Ezio as a young man through the Italian Renaissance. Blending with citizens, climbing and hidden blades also form the basis of Revelations. II concentrates on his development and revenge, while Revelations sends an older Ezio in search of answers and weaves Altaïr's memories into his own story.
Assassin's Creed Brotherhood for Xbox 360 takes place mainly in Rome and introduces recruiting and summoning Assassins. That system returns in Revelations, letting you train allies again. Brotherhood focuses more on dismantling Borgia power and restoring the city. Revelations changes traversal with the hookblade and adds bomb crafting and den defence.
Assassin's Creed III for Xbox 360 follows Connor during the American Revolution and alternates cities with a large frontier. The struggle with Templars and the framing story surrounding Desmond connect it to Revelations. III emphasises routes through trees, hunting and naval battles; Revelations centres on Ezio's urban tools and the connection with Altaïr.
Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag for Xbox 360 lets Edward Kenway explore Caribbean ports and islands. On land, you recognise the same emphasis on rooftops and assassinations, but travel, naval combat and upgrading the Jackdaw take up much of the game. Revelations has no comparable free-roaming sea and keeps its search closer to Constantinople and the memories of two Assassins.
