It’s More Assassin’s Creed
When you’re a fan of something, you probably want more. There’s nothing wrong with that. Assassin’s Creed has a deep story underneath all of the sword-fighting, dudes with cool hoodies and Templar schemes. A lot of it actually branches outside of the main games, leaving gaps that you can fill in elsewhere.
Some of these gaps are easily fixed by reading one of the many books based on the series (both comics and full-fledged novels). But some require that you start jumping into the other games. Games like Assassin’s Creed Rogue or the new Assassin’s Creed Chronicles series build on the same story in interesting ways by allowing you to peek into the lives of some of the characters you know and love.
For instance, you could have found out that Ezio had a hand in helping Shao Jun (the protagonist of Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: China) become an amazing Assassin. There are plenty of interesting tidbits like this one scattered throughout the side games that give more insight into the main characters. And there’s also the added bonus of more assassinating action as well, just in case the story isn’t enough for you.
