Right now, Ubisoft and the Assassin's Creed community are celebrating one of the mainline entries every week heading into September, when an event focused on Assassin's Creed's future will take place. This seems to be a separate event from the multi-game Ubisoft Forward taking place on September 10, and it should be to cap off the week-to-week celebrations. Assassin's Creed Unity's week was about a month ago, but fans have reason to celebrate it today, August 26, as Arno Dorian's birthday.

Born on August 26, 1768, Arno Dorian's life is the tale of Assassin's Creed Unity. His father is assassinated by Shay Cormac, he goes on to become a Master Assassin like his father before him, he is in love with a Templar, he must see an end to the dark forces behind the French revolution, and he comes into contact with a Sword of Eden. Players know plenty of details regarding Arno's birth and life, but he is one of many Assassin's Creed characters without anything known about their death.

There's no doubt many fans will wish Arno Dorian a happy birthday, as seen in the above post by The Ones Who Came Before, and the official
