Assassin’s Creed is 15 years old this week. I can scarcely believe it. I could swear on a stack of bibles that it's a “new” series, in the same way that my kids will always be little, or that The Rock will always be “from the wrestling”.

And what a fifteen years it’s been: in that time, gaming has absolutely exploded, going from a sort of silly hobby for weans and saddos to a mainstream phenomenon that (yes, alright, sorry, I’m going to say the thing) makes tonnes more money (ugh, let’s just get it overwith) than any other entertainment medium (sigh, sorry).

With Valhalla being set a few hundred years before the original game in the timeline, and next year’s Mirage spin-off being designed as a sort-of tribute to Altair’s groundbreaking adventure, it seems like the perfect time to revisit the crusades for a reminder just how fully-formed the series was when it arrived: it’s often said that the series didn’t properly get going until Ezio showed up in the sequel two years later, but as I’ve argued in the video above, AC2 successfully built on sturdy foundations which were set by the incredible creativity of the first game.
