News of Ezio’s actions reach Cesare who asks his Father for more money and the Apple. At the same time, Ezio’s sister Claudia is also made an Assassin. Over the next four years, Ezio works to cripple the Borgias’ hold over the capital through assassinating key people working with Cesare.Īfter returning the Assassin stronghold to full strength, Ezio is given the rank of Il Mentore (Italian for “The Mentor”) and made the leader of the Assassins in Italy.

There, he discovers that the Assassins are failing in their fight.ĭetermined to rebuild, Ezio convinces Machiavelli to let him assemble a Brotherhood powerful enough to destroy the Templars and his new nemesis, Cesare. Injured but alive, Ezio escapes and travels back to Rome seeking vengeance for his Uncle’s death. Mario is killed at the hands of Cesare and the Apple is lost to him and the Templars.

The following morning (which happens to be New Year’s Day), Monteriggioni is attacked by Rodrigo’s son, Cesare Borgia. Believing his part in this tale over, Ezio is confronted by Niccolò Machiavelli who challenges Ezio’s decision to leave Rodrigo Borgia (now Pope Alexander VI) alive. Ezio escapes Rome with his uncle Mario and returns to Monteriggioni. After restoring electricity and firing up the Animus 2.0, Desmond once again takes control of Ezio through Desmond’s genetic memory with one simple mission – find the Apple of Eden and prevent the impending disaster, believed to be orchestrated by the Templars.Įzio’s story continues in 1499, where he exits the Vault and continues to feel confused by Minerva’s prophetic message about his purpose. Desmond Miles, Lucy Stillman, Rebecca Crane, and Shaun Hastings flee to Monteriggioni, establishing a new hideout in the ruins of the Villa Auditore. We begin with the group in 2012 having escaped the Templar attack at the end of Assassin’s Creed II. Unfortunately the story this time around pales in comparison to the opening 2 games and while the enhanced gameplay mechanics add an extra layer of focus to the title, the plot suffers as a consequence of this. Following the cliffhanger ending of Assassin’s Creed II and the fate of the world hanging in the balance, Brotherhood wastes no time continuing the Assassin’s Creed formula and returning right where we left off.
