Assassin's Creed II is a video game developed by Ubisoft Montreal and published by Ubisoft. It was released on 17 November 2009 (United States), 19 November 2009 (Australia) and 20 November 2009 (Worldwide) on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. The PC version was released on 6 March 2010 (United Kingdom) and 9 March 2010 (United States).
A direct sequel to Assassin's Creed and the second installment in the franchise, the game focuses again on Desmond Miles after he escapes from Abstergo Industries with the help of undercover Assassin Lucy Stillman. In an attempt to thwart Abstergo and the modern-day Templars, Desmond uses a new Animus to relive the genetic memories of his ancestor, Ezio Auditore da Firenze, who lived in Italy during the Renaissance. The player controls Desmond to a degree, but primarily Ezio, who becomes an Assassin after his family is betrayed in a conspiracy orchestrated by the Templars. While controlling Ezio, the player can explore renditions of major Italian regions and cities through a mixture of action, stealth, and economic gameplay.

On 16 November 2010, a follow-up in the form of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood was released, expanding on both Ezio's life and the modern-day storyline.

A remastered version of the game was released for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One as part of The Ezio Collection in November 2016, and for the Nintendo Switch in February 2022.

ABOUT ASSASSIN'S CREED 2:

Assassin's Creed 2 is the follow-up to the title that became the fastest-selling new IP in video game history. The highly anticipated title features a new hero, Ezio Auditore da Firenze, a young Italian noble, and a new era, the Renaissance. Assassin's Creed 2 retains the core gameplay experience that made the first opus a resounding success and features new experiences that will surprise and challenge players.

Assassin's Creed 2 is an epic story of family, vengeance and conspiracy set in the pristine, yet brutal, backdrop of a Renaissance Italy. Ezio befriends Leonardo da Vinci, takes on Florence’s most powerful families and ventures throughout the canals of Venice where he learns to become a master assassin.
Assassin's Creed II is similar to its predecessor in many ways. The game is non-linear, and can be considered a "sandbox" type of game due to the player's ability to freely roam the generated renditions of Italy. The Animus is replaced with the Animus 2.0, which, unlike the first, possesses an in-game database with historical information about encountered landmarks, characters, services, and glyphs.

Eagle Vision has been updated to allow for third-person view, which can be used while Ezio is moving. A young version of Leonardo da Vinci is also included in the game and translates Codex pages left behind by Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad, allowing for new weapons and upgrades. Other weapons, such as swords, daggers and maces can also be purchased throughout the game due to the economic system. Navigation has also been altered for the better in that swimming is now possible, alongside using gondolas and riding horses, as well as Leonardo further contributing to gameplay with the inclusion of his flying machine in one of the game's missions.
