The Best Assassin’s Creed Historical Settings, All 12 Ranked From Worst to Best

8. The October Revolution, Early 20th Century Russia – Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: Russia

The third Chronicles entry is interesting, because it’s the farthest we’ve seen the series go in history, besides of course the modern segments. Russia takes place in 1918 following the aftermath of the October Revolution, a massive seizure of power. Nikolai Orelov is the protagonist, who really just wants to leave the country with his family, but is forced to complete one final mission for the Assassin Order.

The setting was a fascinating era for the series to touch on, unlike anything we’d seen before. Not to mention, the red and grayscale color scheme fit the game incredibly well.
