Ubisoft recently took us to Paris to take a look at Assassin’s Creed Unity – in this interview we talk to Maxime Durand, Ubisoft’s in-house historian.
Paris, 1789. The French Revolution turns a once-magnificent city into a place of terror and chaos. Its cobblestoned streets run red with the blood of commoners who dare to rise up against an oppressive aristocracy. Yet as the nation tears itself apart, a young man named Arno will embark upon an extraordinary journey to expose the true powers behind the Revolution. His pursuit will throw him into the middle of a ruthless struggle for the fate of a nation, and transform him into a true Master Assassin.
Graduated in History from Universite de Montreal in 2010, Maxime Durand has been counselling and coordinating at Ubisoft on every Assassin’s Creed game from close or afar since Revelations.
His expertise supports the whole game process; from overall narrative arches, to gameplay animation or precise architecture details.
So over to Maxime, and there’s some new Xbox One gameplay in there too:
Assassin’s Creed Unity will be released November 13th for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC.
