THE DESMOND SAGA

Where it all began. The original Assassin's Creed experience.

The Desmond Miles Era

The Desmond Saga represents the foundation of the Assassin's Creed franchise, spanning from 2007 to 2012. This epic storyline follows Desmond Miles, a modern-day bartender who discovers his ancestral connection to legendary Assassins throughout history.

Through the revolutionary Animus technology, players experience the memories of Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad during the Third Crusade, Ezio Auditore da Firenze through the Italian Renaissance, and Connor Kenway during the American Revolution. Each ancestor's story builds toward Desmond's ultimate destiny in preventing a global catastrophe.

This saga introduced groundbreaking parkour mechanics, social stealth gameplay, and a rich narrative that blends historical fiction with science fiction, setting the standard for the entire franchise.
