Which Assassin's Creed game stars Shay Patrick Cormac, an Assassin who becomes a Templar?

Assassin's Creed Rogue stars Shay Patrick Cormac, an Assassin who becomes a Templar.

Shay begins the game as a member of the Colonial Brotherhood during the Seven Years' War. After a mission connected to an Isu artifact causes a catastrophic earthquake in Lisbon, he becomes disillusioned with the Assassins' methods and leaves them.

Shay is later recruited by the Templars and hunts former Assassin allies. This perspective reversal is the central feature of Rogue, which lets players experience the conflict from the Templar side while still using familiar stealth, naval travel, and exploration mechanics.

Rogue is set primarily in the North Atlantic, the river valleys of North America, and New York. Its story connects directly with Assassin's Creed III, Black Flag, and Unity through shared characters and historical events.
