Which Assassin's Creed game features Shay Cormac as its protagonist?
Answer
Assassin's Creed Rogue
Assassin's Creed Rogue features Shay Cormac as its protagonist.
Released in 2014, Rogue follows Shay Patrick Cormac, an Assassin who becomes disillusioned with the Brotherhood after a disastrous mission. He eventually joins the Templars and hunts former allies, making the game notable for placing a former Assassin in the role of a Templar protagonist.
The story is set during the Seven Years' War and includes locations in the North Atlantic, the Appalachian River Valley, and New York. Naval travel and ship combat build on systems developed for Black Flag.
Rogue is closely connected to other games. Its events occur after Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag and before Assassin's Creed III, while its ending leads directly into the opening circumstances of Assassin's Creed Unity. Shay is therefore distinct from Arno Dorian, Unity's protagonist.
