About Assassin's Creed
Assassin's Creed reconstructs historical cities in detail, and its recreation of Notre-Dame was discussed as a reference after the 2019 fire. The series releases frequently enough that Ubisoft's finances depend heavily on each instalment landing. The series began as a spin-off from Prince of Persia, another Ubisoft property, before the historical assassin premise displaced the original concept entirely.
