Which Assassin’s Creed game centers on the American Revolution and the protagonist Connor?

The story behind the answer

Assassin’s Creed III centers on the American Revolution and the protagonist Connor.

Connor’s birth name is Ratonhnhaké:ton, and he is the son of the Templar Haytham Kenway and a Kanien’kehá:ka woman named Kaniehtí:io. The game follows his path into the Assassin Brotherhood while the American colonies move toward revolution.

Released in 2012, Assassin’s Creed III includes historical events and figures associated with the late eighteenth-century conflict, including George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, and the Boston Tea Party. Its frontier setting expands exploration beyond the cities, while naval missions introduce a major ship-combat component. Connor is also connected to Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag through his father, Edward Kenway, and his grandfather, Haytham Kenway.
