An Assassin’s Creed fan visiting Florence took the opportunity to visit some ofAssassin’s Creed II’smost iconic locations.
TheAssassin’s Creedseries has taken its players to some gorgeous locations, from the sunny Caribbean, to Ancient Greece, and the pyramids of Egypt. It’s also taken us on a guided tour through Florence, Italy inAssassin’s Creed II, whichhas aged like a fine wine.

A fan of the game, nien_nuts, recently took a real-life trip to Florence and decided it was only right that they visit some of the famous landmarks used in the game’s development.

I’ve got to say the attention to detail in a game from 2009 is outstanding. The video game equivalents look almost exactly like the real thing, near-perfectly recreating the minor details of the architecture and patterns used in their construction.
Of course we can’t exactly be surprised. If there’s one thingUbisoftexcels at it’s crafting a beautiful open world. While the size of Assassin’s Creed maps has grown to slightly ridiculous proportions in games likeAssassin’s Creed Valhalla, you can’t deny that theydon’t look fantastic, especially for photo-mode gamers.
However it could just be nostalgia talking but I don’t think we’ll ever get a visually stunning parkour playground better than Florence fromAssassin’s Creed II. It combined form and function to become one of the most memorable open worlds in video game history.
