Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

This game is terrible. I don't understand how you can screw this up so badly. I spent an hour and a half just trying to get through the tutorial/prologue and play the actual game. I had to start skipping most of the conversations and cutscenes just to start playing the actual game. Ever head of "show, don't tell"? This is just awful. I was actually just angry while trying to get through the crap and start playing. Everything else was just underwhelming. I'm going to reinstall Valhalla or something and play that instead.
Boring, no soul, poorly made, crazy unoptimized, offensive to Japanese culture, people and Japan, dei woke slop from mentally ill "people", A LOT of controversies Before (and maybe also after) launch, of course if it happened to the devs culture, country etc they'll cry their lifes out, blame etc, but if it's for another country, culture, etc it's not a problem at all. This game is not special, nothing unique, this is only made to be woke dei slop, to force BS down your throat, accept it, play it, enjoy it and stay quiet, but obviously people won't do that, and didn't and never will, but always will speak out to such video games, it's for their own mentally ill abstract for wokeness with a woke (dei) message, not for the video game as an assassin and Japanese culture. Go woke, go broke and you did!

The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 5: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

유비식 오픈월드를 좋아하여 어크 시리즈는 항상 재밌게 하였다. 이번 시리즈는 동양풍이라 좋았고, 나오에는 이쁘고 야스케는 욕 출시 당시 욕을 많이 먹었지만, 플레이 해보면 되게 매력있는 캐릭터다.
Assasin's Creed - RPG A very beautiful, incredibly HUGE game with an insane number of quests, side missions, auto-leveling enemies (which is bad), a huge number of points of interest on the map, repetitive, sometimes interesting quests, and well-executed settings. A game that lasts 100+ hours. Overall, I'm happy with my experience, but I wouldn't repeat it. I'll be able to play another Assasin's Creed game, but not for at least a year or more. Overall, 9/10
Играю ради Наоэ
Simplemente es un juego sin personalidad. Tiene una historia aburrida, personajes que no generan ningún interés y unas animaciones faciales que parecen de la generacion de play 1. Es increíble que Assassin's Creed II, un juego de 2009, tenga mejores animaciones faciales que este. Lo compré con la esperanza de que la gente hubiera sido demasiado dura con él. No me interesa en absoluto la polémica previa al lanzamiento sobre Yasuke ni las precisiones históricas, así que mi opinión no está influenciada por nada de eso. Lo juzgo únicamente por el juego que es. Cuando digo que la historia es mala, no me refiero a la falta de asesinos y templarios. Valhalla también deja ese conflicto en un segundo plano y, aun así, consigue contar una historia entretenida. Aquí el problema es mucho más simple. La trama es aburrida, no engancha y nunca logra que me importe lo que está pasando. He ido matando a los objetivos sin generar ningun interes en los que se mataron al padre de naoe. La banda sonora tampoco ayuda. En lugar de reforzar la ambientación, muchas veces me sacaba por completo de la experiencia. En varios momentos sentía que estaba jugando en una discoteca japonesa en vez de recorrer el Japón feudal. Para mí, es una de las peores bandas sonoras que ha tenido la saga. La exploración del mundo abierto es extremadamente aburrida tanto que realmente no pienso profundizar en esto. Si tuviera que hacer un ranking de la saga, lo pondría como el peor Assassin's Creed hasta la fecha, y solo evitaría darle ese puesto porque Liberation existe.
Ok so overall I have played every Assassins creed besides Basim's game. I want to begin with yes this game can feel difficult or feel too easy and repetitive (like past games/ Ubisoft style) but there were many things I found to actually enjoy about this. Lets start with the Cons. FIRST- ok i can agree with many people about the climbing mechanic here, however this game focused more into you path finding and trail blazing rather than climbing every rock you can see. Secondly- its not that the map is intense, nor the difficulty. In my opinion its all the extra quests added. Some may like that but keep it until you reach the end of the game then give endgame quests. Thirdly- facial mechanics lacked intensely, there were moments though! i really feel for the story of Naoe and her path to redemption. Besides that, there's little tics i can also list but like most games anyways you'll run into a glitch weather its a corrupt file or just a bad save state, ect. so there on I don't see a reason to post it. The good! Seasons- by god I've waited since Odyssey to see year round rotations knowing they could achieve it. Thankfully we finally got it. 10/10 The beauty- Yeah yeah you can go to Sync points and catch a view from afar, its the solo nights without anyone where you just want to wander. Venture to maybe find a hidden side quest or maybe catch a great view to enjoy. The animal life, landscape, buliding, and set era of time this game was set it dear to my heart. No they wern't dead on in their story but that IS what Assassins creed does, its an adaptation of what our world is and they make it a part of their own. That is the beauty is following the story from the beginning and seeing the result. 9/10 Skills and assassin/ souls-like - I personally dig this, i main Naoe so I do enjoy just taking forever on bosses to beat them, like a 20 episode anime build up. OR you swap to Yasuke and absolutely ANNIHILATE every person in sight. even under leveled Yasuke is a beast but the swav of Naoe, the parkour and sneaking around assassinating is what I've loved in these games. 8.5/10 Story - Ok personally the top few stories (Since Black Flag beginning open world era) is probably Cassandra's in Odyssey. However the rise of the samurai and the skillful ninja was amazing. This is where the facial mechanics if they could've hit that mark like in Odyssey or even Valhalla. I would've jumped in joy but when there were moment's, specifically when Naoe's father and her played the flute and that incorporated to the story. won't lie that had me off my seat ready for the fight. 7.8/10 Difficulty - Had more moments in this game for some reason where the fight feels like it takes forever, thats due to using the Assassins skill run or the Souls-like skill run. Fighting in buildings is amazing, slicing down the walls and assassinating people. This game has the potential to really refine it to become one of the best tier based AC games but right now it feels off at times and feels choppy. 7.0/10 These are the base pro's, once again there's much more you could enjoy on your own from the tea parties, small interactions, and even the side quests are personable in their own way. This game is made for those who are both new and old like myself because if you played Vahalla (or spoiled the ending for yourself) you knew entering into this game was going to be unknown territory. Endgame here i'd give this game a solid 8/10. Looking past the negatives on my end its a very good game with good structure that needs to be taken at pace.
very slowly paced, uneven balance at the beginning of the game and 0 direction towards quests. ive heard it gets better but i'm not about to spend 20 hours trying to find random people and places with minimal direction hoping the game gets better. buy ghost of tsushima instead
Хотів би я могти повернути гроші за цей неоптимізований шматок... коду. Ну ні, я розумію, що RTX 3090 – це вже не топ залізо, але й ледве видавати 60 кадрів на секунду на ультранизьких налаштуваннях із якістю апскейлу виставленою на максимальну продуктивність при ОК графіці – це треба взагалі забити величезного прутня на оптимізацію.
peace of ♥♥♥♥, i am terrible sorry for buying this ♥♥♥♥, what a wasted of money so regretable....
