IMPROVED NAVAL GAMEPLAY

Assassin’s Creed Rogue Remastered builds on the award-winning naval experience from Assassin’s Creed® IV
Black Flag®. Cast off in your ship, the Morrigan, and fight your way through the icy seas of the North Atlantic and
the narrow waters of America’s river valleys.

• Unpredictable enemy tactics: Defend yourself from Assassins as they attempt to board your ship and
  overthrow your crew. Fight them off quickly to avoid losing too many crew members.
• A variety of weapons: Burning oil, which leaves a trail of fire behind to burn enemy ships, and the Puckle
  gun, capable of delivering continuous machine-gun-like fire.
• An arctic world full of possibilities: Ram through ice sheets to discover hidden locations and use icebergs as cover during naval battles.

A VAST, DIVERSE OPEN WORLD TO EXPLORE

Shay’s story will allow you to explore three unique environments:

• The North Atlantic Ocean – Experience the cold winds and towering icebergs of the arctic in this
  expansive naval playground.
• The River Valley – A large hybrid setting of the American Frontier mixing seamless river navigation and
  ground exploration.
