About Assassin’s Creed® Chronicles: China

Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China is a stealth-driven action-adventure that reimagines the series in striking 2.5D, trading the usual open worlds for a side-scrolling take that plays out like a set of living paintings. It follows three legendary Assassins across three civilizations and eras, and this entry centers on the crumbling start of the Ming Dynasty.

You embody Shao Jun, moving through a world designed for players who love stealth and who relish the idea of rewriting history through games. The Chronicles trilogy as a whole spans distinct time periods, from Ming-era China to the Sikh Empire at war in India and the aftermath of the Red October revolution, with each chapter framed around a theme of Revenge, Retribution or Redemption.

Gameplay leans into the core pleasures of being an Assassin, letting you slay from the shadows, master the art of parkour and take the iconic leap of faith. Rendered in a hand-painted style and built around careful, deliberate movement, it offers a fresh visual and mechanical spin on the Assassin's Creed universe on PC.
