What is the title of the first main Assassin’s Creed video game, released in 2007?

The first main Assassin’s Creed video game, released in 2007, is titled Assassin’s Creed.

Ubisoft Montreal developed the game, while Ubisoft published it for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in November 2007, followed by a Windows release in April 2008. It introduced the series’ central conflict between the Assassins and the Templars.

The game primarily follows Altaïr Ibn-La’Ahad during the Third Crusade, while the modern-day storyline follows Desmond Miles through the Animus. Players visit historical cities including Jerusalem, Acre, and Damascus.

A common mix-up is treating Assassin’s Creed II as the series’ first game. Assassin’s Creed II was the 2009 sequel and introduced Ezio Auditore da Firenze, a different protagonist and one of the franchise’s most prominent characters.
