Which year was Assassin's Creed first released?

Assassin's Creed was first released in 2007.

The original game launched for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in November 2007, with a Windows version following in 2008. It introduced the franchise's central ideas: historical settings, stealth-based assassination, parkour movement, and the modern-day Animus storyline.

Ubisoft Montreal developed the game, which stars Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad during the Third Crusade. Its historical campaign visits cities including Masyaf, Jerusalem, Acre, and Damascus.

The game is sometimes dated incorrectly because development began years earlier and later entries arrived quickly. Assassin's Creed II followed in 2009, but the franchise itself began with the 2007 release of the original title.
