Assassins Creed Brotherhood
The player once again controls Ezio Auditore through the genetic memory of Desmond Miles using the Animus (which is the game's memory interface). As a Master Assassin, Ezio will have to reorganize his Brotherhood in Rome to fight against the Templars. Hence the new management system: the player can recruit new members, send them to assignments or call them for support during missions (if they are not already occupied). Tasking the novice Assassins is essential to make them gain experience, and the player will be able to customize them as well as giving them specific weapons. Although Ezio is a Master Assassin in this episode, his progression is not over and he will also have to master new gadgets.

The player will also have to rebuild Rome in ruins due to the corrupted ruling of the Templars over the Papal States, concentrating all the wealth in the Vatican. Just like the village of Monteriggioni in Assassin's Creed II, the player will be able to invest in the city to see it evolve and unlock rewards. This feature is fully integrated in the storyline making Ezio and Rome progress simultaneously. Rome is the biggest city ever created after the first two installments and includes five various districts: Vatican, Downtown, Tiber, Country and Antique. No other cities or locations than Rome have currently been announced as explorable, although Monteriggioni will appear at the beginning of the game, and Florence has been seen in multiplayer screen-shots.

The combat system has once again been reviewed to be more dynamic and faster. Striking first and offensive actions will be more deadly in Brotherhood than previous games where counter-attacks were the most efficient. This made the player wait until the AI strikes which slowed down the pace of fighting. The AI in this game is thus more aggressive and enemies can attack simultaneously. To dispatch them, Ezio can use melee and ranged weapons at the same time as well, introducing the hidden pistol in combat. It has been shown that Ezio can throw axes toward his enemies. There are new enemy archetypes in addition to those seen in Assassin's Creed II such as horsemen, riflemen, papal guards and others.

Horses play a larger role in Brotherhood, not only used as a means of transport (inside the city for the first time) but as a component of acrobatic sequences and advanced combat as well, allowing ranged weapons to be used while riding them. There will be environmental objects like the flower pot in Assassin's Creed II to move faster inside the city, as well as new objects such as merchandise lifts to quickly climb up high buildings or structures.
