Assassin's Creed: Unity has finally arrived, and amid numerous reports of technical issues, how has the game fared with the critics? Find out below.
Unity is the first Assassin’s Creed game to be developed from the ground-up for new-gen consoles. The game is built on a new engine that – on top of offering better graphics – supports large numbers of NPCs on screen, more than any of the previous games in the series.
Unity is the also the first Assassin’s Creed game to include a co-operative component. Up to four players can tackle heists and assassination missions, with support for extensive character customisation and multiple pieces of gear.
