Assassin’s Creed Unity gets a bit of a bad rap. It launched in a sorry state, but the Ubisoft’s iteration of revolutionary Paris and four-player co-op were great additions to the stealth game series. This is why, after nine years, hearing about an Assassin’s Creed Unity mod that aims to issue a load of fixes and improvements is great, as it gives us a brilliant reason to revisit it.
For many, Assassin’s Creed Unity is one of the worst games in the Ubisoft series. At launch, it was probably the buggiest Assassin’s Creed game to date, with those monstrosities made up of just eyes and teeth giving Cyberpunk 2077 a run for its money. It would certainly benefit more with a second look than the apparent Assassin’s Creed Black Flag remake, that’s for sure.
Unity has seen improvements since, and its depiction of Paris and four-player co-op were truly unique at the time. I still marvel at how dense that Paris map is, to be honest. Apart from the bugs my main issue at the time, and this impacted many others too, was that the Assassin’s Creed formula was feeling stale. Even so, we at PCGamesN have voiced our appreciation for Unity fairly recently. Admittedly, we’d had eight quite similar games over the course of seven years at this point though, and Syndicate was the last hurrah before Origins took the series in a new RPG game direction.
With Assassin’s Creed Mirage going back to the series roots though, you might want to revisit some of the older games. This is where Unity comes in, as after nine years a new and extensive mod has just come out, adding a load of great features and quality-of-life fixes.
