About Assassin's Creed III Remastered
Ubisoft Barcelona remastered this 2012 adventure game to bring Connor Kenway's story to modern systems like PS4, PC, Xbox One, Switch, and Stadia. Released in March 2019, the title updates the original graphics and fixes clunky controls while keeping the core narrative intact. You play as a half-Mohawk, half-English protagonist fighting during the American Revolution. The package bundles every single player DLC mission, including the controversial "The Tyranny of King Washington" expansion. It stands as a definitive version of a franchise entry that shifted the series from medieval Europe to colonial America.
Gameplay
Sessions focus on stealth takedowns and open-world exploration across Boston and New York. You cross dense forests using tree chains, scale buildings with climbing axes, and engage in pistol duels at close range. Combat feels weighty compared to earlier entries but still suffers from occasional camera issues during large skirmishes. The game offers a large map filled with side quests, hunting trips, and naval battles aboard the Aquila. You manage Connor's relationship with various factions to unlock new abilities and gear. A typical playthrough involves traveling between settlements to gather resources before launching an assassination or defending your hideout from British patrols.
What Players Think
Players on IGDB rate this remaster a solid 79.2 out of 100 based on one hundred reviews. The community mood remains generally positive despite the dated mechanics, with many noting the story improvement over the base game. Completion rates vary wildly since the achievement system shows an average unlock rate of just 3.7 percent across all eighty-four available trophies. The "Hangman" challenge is notoriously difficult, achieved by only 0.7 percent of users. Fans appreciate the inclusion of all DLC content, though some critics point out that the naval segments remain a mixed bag for long-term engagement.
PlayPile's Take
This remaster is worth the nine-dollar entry price on Steam if you want to finish the full colonial saga without hunting down old DLC separately. The eighty-four achievements offer plenty of grind, especially for completionists chasing that rare Hangman trophy. It suits players who enjoy historical fiction and don't mind aging combat systems. Those seeking a polished modern action game might find the mechanics stiff compared to recent titles. Stick with this version if you want the complete Connor story in one package rather than buying separate editions later.
