Assassin's Creed Unity takes place mainly during which historical revolution?

Assassin's Creed Unity takes place mainly during the French Revolution.

The game follows Arno Dorian, an Assassin operating in Paris from the late 1780s into the revolutionary period. Its historical backdrop includes the storming of the Bastille, political upheaval, shifting factions, and the Reign of Terror. Paris is the game's principal open-world setting.

Unity was released in 2014 and was designed for eighth-generation consoles and Windows. Its movement system emphasizes climbing and descending buildings, while cooperative missions allow multiple players to work together as Assassins.

The French Revolution began in 1789 and eventually led to major changes in France's political and social structure. The American Revolution is the backdrop of Assassin's Creed III, while the Industrial Revolution is associated with Assassin's Creed Syndicate. The Russian Revolution appears in later Assassin's Creed material, not as Unity's main historical setting.
