STORY:

In this part of the game you take your stand as Shay Cormac an ex assassin that turned himself to the templar order. Unlocking new features in the game like your own new ship Morrigan, that has major firepower and manuverability. Story begins as you are an Assassin at the beginning of the game you're after precursor temples, manuscript of anicent power of those who lived before. Now precursor temples are like buried under the major capital towns, as you find one in Lisbon Portugal, you don't know its power so you go and try to take it, but on the moment u grab it. BOOM! Whole temple starts destroying itself and causing a major earthquake to that point an epicenter, as the whole town starts collapsing and lot of innocent die there. After that seen what you have done u start a fight with your mentor Achilles(old guy from Assassin's creed III, yes this is happening before that part, and after AC:Black Flag) and you take manuscript for yourself to put it away from Assassins but they catch you and shoot you! From that point game begins You wake up in the home of an ex templar Finnegan, his parents take care of you and u meet Colonel Monro a templar, with his help u're trying to stop the assassins from finding precursor temples and destroying towns. Will Shay succeed? Buy the game and see for yourselves! Oh yeah and its a really short campaign but I can tell you this is really the best Assassin's creed you will ever play! Also the soundtrack its good, very epic, my favorite one is "Run, Shay, Run" Listen to it and i bet you will buy the game instantly.
