Mantic Games has partnered with Ubisoft to release a new Assassin's Creed tabletop board game with two different editions called Assassin's Creed: Animus. The game takes things back to the beginning in a way, as players will play as a character exploring their ancestor's memories in the Animus, recalling certain events and unlocking history along the way. Explore the timeline and take out targets, eventually leading to the truth. But who can make it to the end of the story first? The game will come in the Standard Edition with all the normal pieces and whatnot, but the Collector's Edition will go above and beyond, adding so much more to the title. We have the finer details below, with both editions now up for sale on their website.

• Designed for 1-4 players, aged 12+. A game of adventure and rivalry, as players 'enter the Animus' to relive the memories of a chosen legendary Assassin
• Characters each have their appropriate time period, gear, targets, locations to explore, and asymmetric game mechanics – ensuring a huge amount of replayability
• Characters are pursuing their own Templar targets, with their actions also affecting other players to generate twists/turns/challenges
• Speed is advantageous, but reckless or clumsy assassinations start to 'desynchronize' players from the memories of their chosen character, and will have consequences at the end of the game.
• Available in both Standard Edition (4 characters & eras), and a special limited-run Collector's Edition (16 characters, 10 eras, premium components, extra gameplay and deluxe storage)
