Assassin's Creed Bloodlines Q&A
-------------------------------------------------------
Could you introduce yourself and explain your role in the project?

My name is Frederic Lefrancois and Im 3rd Party Producer on Assassins Creed: Bloodlines. My role on this project is to ensure that this game releases on time for the Holiday at the highest level of quality.

Im working hand in hand with the Assassins Creed: Bloodlines developer and Assassins Creed Core Team at Ubisoft Montreal to develop a great game that will respect all of AC brand pillars.
---------------------------------------- ---------------
Who is in charge of the development?

The game is developed by Amaze Entertainment and the Griptonite Studio under the supervision of Ubisoft Montreals Assassins Creed Core Team.
---------------------------------------- ---------------
How is Assassins Creed PSP linked to the Assassins Creed universe?

Assassins Creed: Bloodlines follows Altairs story right after the events of Assassins Creed as he hunts down the ascending Templars in Cyprus. Its the only game that explains the link between Assassins Creed and Assassins Creed 2. If you want to understand how Ezio is born and where the Codex comes from you need this game.
---------------------------------------- ---------------
What is the storyline of the game? Can you give us a quick synopsis?

Assassins Creed PSP picks up right where Assassins Creed ended. After the death of Robert De Sable by Altairs blade, the Templars, led by Armand Bouchart, fled the Holy Land to settle on the island of Cyprus. Following their tracks, Altair has the firm intention to put an end to their quest for power. Altair will help the local resistance fight the Templars occupation and get rid of the Templar commanders.
---------------------------------------- ---------------
How did Altair evolve as a character from the first Assassins Creed to the PSP game?

With most of his preconceptions shattered and cast among the blood of slain Templars, Altair enters the events of Assassins Creed: Bloodlines with an open mind. No longer bound by Al Mualims leadership, he forges his own path and destiny. He has become more curious, more inquisitive and far less trusting.
---------------------------------------- ---------------
What main gameplay feature can we expect in Assassins Creed: Bloodlines? Will the player get to investigate before every assassination mission?

You can expect to enjoy the core gameplay of the original Assassins Creed including the signature free-running and the intuitive combat system. Before killing his targets, Altair will get to complete a variety of missions, not always investigations. There are 8 new mission types and we wanted each mission to feel as fresh and exciting as the final Assassination moment.
---------------------------------------- ---------------
How is the open-world and free running that are key elements of the Assassins Creed brand presented in the PSP game?

As it was the case in Assassins Creed, Altair will get to explore various large cities. This time around Altair will discover the cities of Limasol and Kyrenia in Cyprus, a beautiful and historically very interesting island in the Mediterranean Sea.

Once again, you can expect Altair to master his environment while performing all of his signature moves. In fact, Altair will free-run, sprint, fly between beams and climb everywhere to take advantage of its surroundings. This is a huge benchmark technology wise as this kind of freedom of movement has never been seen before on the PSP.
---------------------------------------- ---------------
Why did you choose Cyprus as the setting for the PSP game?

In the summer of AD 1191, the Templar order withdrew from the Holy Land to the island of Cyprus which they had previously bought from Richard the Lionheart. They occupied the island and oppressed the locals who rose up in rebellion only to end up being crushed by the Templars. We chose this setting because its an intriguing historical period surrounded by conspiracy of the Templar Treasures left on the Island. The oppression of the people of Cyprus is the perfect backdrop to continue Altairs story and explain some of the key elements of Assassins Creed 2.
---------------------------------------- ---------------
Will you use the PS3/PSP connectivity function?

As players unlock health and Hidden blade upgrades in Assassins Creed 2 PS3, the same upgrades will be unlocked in Assassins Creed: Bloodlines (PSP). It also works the other way round: on the PS3 you will be able to access any Templar Coins and special weapons youve collected on the PSP.

[potterbond]

@freerealmsgamer555 idk if you already bought the game or not, but you know how in assassins creed 2, ezio has to find codex pages? well in bloodlines altiar is the one writting the codex pages. also we see how ezio came to be (kinda) hope that helped, and again, if you already bought the game then forget i said anything cause you already know what its about.

[InhabitantOfOddworld]

( warning spoilers) basically, bloodlines is about the Templars buying Cyprus because there is a piece of Eden. Altair kicks more Templar butt and writes the Codex, showing why Borgia travels to Cyprus in AC2. Also it depicts Altair starting a relationship with Maria, showing why they had it off in Acre in AC2's flashback/ hallucination.

[InhabitantOfOddworld]

@LightDarkJRS. When u link up bloodlines to AC2, you get the hidden pistol on bloodlines + more health. On AC2 you get the bad guys weapons + Maria Thorpe's long sword
