TOUT L'ART D'ASSASSIN'S CREED UNITY

The Art of Assassin's Creed

by Paul Davies, Mohamed Gambouz, Cédric Perdereau (Translator)

With 73 million units sold worldwide, Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed franchise is established as one of the best-selling game series ever. Recognized for having some of the richest, most-engrossing art and storytelling in the industry, Assassin’s Creed transcends video games, branching into other entertainment experiences including comic books, novels, short films and an impressive merchandise line-up.
 
The recently announced Assassin’s Creed Unity takes players into the heart of the French Revolution. Marrying intricately detailed environments and next-gen capabilities, Paris comes to life around you and immerses you in the grit and grime of a city in turmoil. Continuing in the footsteps of this already world-renowned franchise, Assassin’s Creed Unity brings to life a time of unrest and disorder in one of the greatest cities in the world, promising to be the biggest and best experience yet.
 
Highlights in the game, and in the book, include the different areas of Paris, each with their own identity and population, towering buildings bigger than any Assassin’s Creed game so far and an amazing range of locations and action.

Reviews

[Dean · Rating 4 out of 5]

I quite like the ‘Art of’ books, be they of games or film, as I like the insight you get behind the scenes. Visually, the Assassins Creed games owe themselves to this kind of book, and Unity is a visually stunning game. Everything, from the characters to the weapons to the environment, is amazing and the concept art and mood art this book reveals is equally stunning.
Some of the two page spreads are near masterpieces, and really give you an appreciation for how much effort goes on behind the scenes. The only slight negative is I thought the text a little weak, and almost an afterthought. Some interesting insight, but quite repetitive by the end.
If you loved the game, you’ll love this. If you love Assassins Creed, or concept art books, you’ll also loved this.
Fab.

Ładne ilustracje, dużo concept-artów oraz ładne wydanie. Nie ma co spodziewać się po tym czegoś więcej - ot album - dla fanów jak najbardziej cenny nabytek, dla pozostałych - cóż, chyba nie wart wydatku.
