Paris is the main setting of Assassin's Creed Unity during the French Revolution.
The game follows Arno Dorian, an Assassin active in France from 1789 onward. Paris is represented through recognizable districts, monuments, and political upheaval associated with the Revolution. Arno investigates a conspiracy involving the Templars while navigating a city transformed by violence, shortages, and competing factions.
Versailles appears in the game, especially during its opening sequence, but it is not the principal setting. Marseille and Lyon are real French cities but are not Unity's central playable city. The game includes historical figures such as Maximilien Robespierre and Napoleon Bonaparte, while its main personal story remains fictional. Unity was also designed around cooperative missions that allow multiple players to work together as Assassins in Paris.
