About Assassin's Creed Brotherhood
Assassin's Creed Brotherhood dropped in late 2010 as a direct sequel to the previous title. Ubisoft Montreal developed this entry for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, PC, and Mac platforms. You play as Ezio Auditore, a Master Assassin returning to Rome to dismantle the Templar Order once and for all. The story focuses on his fight against corruption while he rebuilds his own guild of assassins. This game shifts focus from solo stealth missions to leading a team that fights alongside you. It introduces a new multiplayer mode where players compete as various characters with different weapons. The setting moves from Renaissance Florence to the large ruins and streets of ancient Rome, offering a dense urban environment for combat and exploration.
Gameplay
Sessions involve sprinting across rooftops, performing stealth takedowns on guards, and engaging in open combat when spotted. Ezio uses a hidden blade, a pistol, and poison darts to eliminate targets or clear entire areas. A major change from the predecessor is the recruitment system where you assign Brotherhood members to patrol zones and use them as distractions or backup during fights. You manage these recruits through a strategic menu to control Rome district by district. The multiplayer component lets you select specific classes like the Courtesan or Squire, each with unique assassination moves and health pools. Matches run in real time with objective-based modes that test your ability to survive and eliminate opponents. Controls feel tight during parkour sequences, though combat can become repetitive after extended play sessions.

PlayPile's Take
This title works best for players who want a solid action-adventure experience with a clear narrative progression. The price point on secondary markets reflects its age but offers significant value given the content volume. You earn 51 achievements if you decide to go all in on completion. The game struggles with some repetitive combat encounters, yet the recruitment system adds enough depth to keep things interesting. Ezio remains a compelling protagonist throughout the entire campaign. Skip this if you hate third-person shooters or need constant online multiplayer support after the servers shut down. Grab it now for a complete single-player story that still holds up well today.
