Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed has quickly become one of the hottest intellectual properties of this generation. Leaving aside its obvious credentials as an immersive, explorative, stealth-flavored adventure romp, Assassin’s Creed has also garnered critical acclaim for its jaw-dropping visuals, ranging from sprawling cityscapes, evocative sunsets and meticulously rendered character models.

We’ve done our best to find shots of similar origin in both titles in order to give you an idea of how Ubisoft’s stealthy series is progressing since its inception in 2007. Check them out below.
