“In Assassin’s Creed II, we follow Desmond, who’s going to live the life of Ezio Auditore de Forenze,” says Patrice Desilets, Creative Director on Assassin’s Creed II. “As the player, you’ll be just like the character, so going from a life of dolce vita in Italy, he’ll have to be a guy who has to kill to survive. He’ll be, at first, just like you and I, and then he’ll become this badass main character.”

In the first of an expected six developer diaries from Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed people, we are introduced to the latest protagonist in the Assassin’s Creed series, Ezio Auditore de Forenze. An Italian noble from 1486, Renaissance-period Italy. Betrayed by other nobles, Ezio becomes an Assassin as a means of protecting his family and seeking vengeance on those who betrayed him. This more personal storyline will hopefully add a bit of charisma and realism to Ezio’s character, something that Altair from the original lacked.

Keep an eye on Gamer’s Guide to Life for the rest of the developer diaries and all the latest on the sequel before Assassin’s Creed II is released at the end of this year.
