'''''Assassin's Creed: Rogue''''' is a sandbox action adventure game, released for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on 11 November 2014 in the United States, 13 November globally,<ref>[http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2014/08/05/september-cover-reveal-assassins-creed-rogue-unity.aspx GameInformer: ''September Cover Revealed – Assassin's Creed Rogue And Unity'']</ref> and due to be released 10 March 2015 on PC.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwgSYaerlok ''Assassin's Creed: Rogue'' PC Launch Trailer]</ref> ''Rogue'' follows the story of the [[Templars|Templar]] [[Shay Cormac]] between 1752 and 1761, during the [[Seven Years' War]], and is the closing chapter in the Kenway saga.<ref name="GI Shay">[http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2014/08/06/get-to-know-shay-from-assassins-creed-rogue.aspx GameInformer: Get to know Shay from ''Assassin's Creed: Rogue'']</ref>

==Development==
''Assassin's Creed: Rogue'' was developed by Ubisoft Sofia, in collaboration with Ubisoft's Singapore, Montreal, Quebec, Chengdu, Milan and Bucharest studios.<ref>[http://www.allgamesbeta.com/2014/08/assassins-creed-rogue-official.html All Games Beta - ''Assassin's Creed: Rogue Official Announcement + World Premiere Cinematic Trailer'']</ref> The game was written by [[Richard Farrese]].<ref name="GI Shay" />

==Gameplay==
The primary locations in the game are [[New York City|New York]], the [[River Valley|Hudson River Valley]] and the North [[Atlantic Ocean]]. The North Atlantic is an icy water-based region, where icebergs can be used as cover during naval combat, as well as broken to reveal frozen cargo and [[Animus data fragments]]. With the help of an ice-breaker ram, navigation is supplemented and additional secret areas can be reached. Meanwhile, the Hudson River Valley is a hybrid of land-based and naval gameplay, with seamless river navigation integrated into a map reminiscent of the [[Frontier]] from ''[[Assassin's Creed III]]''.

Some mechanics from previous games' [[multiplayer]] have been incorporated, such as a compass indicating the target's position being a part of [[Eagle Vision]], and whispers increasing in volume to indicate the presence of nearby [[stalkers]].

Environmental hazards have been incorporated in the form of poison gas barrels, which drives victims berserk within their expanding radius; Shay can avoid being affected by pulling a [[Gas mask|mask]] over his face.<ref name="GI Shay" /> Accompanying this, swimming in the freezing waters of the North Atlantic damages Shay's health.<ref name="Gamespot" />

During naval battles, the ''Morrigan'' can be rammed by enemy ships, forcing Shay and his crew to protect their vessel from Assassin-affiliated attackers.<ref name="Eurogamer" /> Sea shanties make a return in ''Rogue'', comprised of a mix of old ones from ''Black Flag'' and newly composed ones.

[[Hunting]] returns with new animals unique to the Arctic regions, such as narwhals and [[Bears|polar bears]].

Characters seen previously in the Kenway saga make appearances, such as [[Haytham Kenway]] and [[Achilles Davenport]] from ''[[Assassin's Creed III]]'', as well as [[Adéwalé]] from ''[[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag]]''.<ref name="Eurogamer">[http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2014-08-06-assassins-creed-rogue-is-single-player-only-report Eurogamer: ''Assassin's Creed: Rogue'' is single-player only]</ref>

Unlike previous installments, there is no synchronization penalty for killing [[civilians]] once Shay joins the Templars. However, similar to [[pirate hunters]] in ''Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag'', bounty hunters would be dispatched after Shay for killing civilians.<ref name="Gamespot">[http://www.gamespot.com/articles/four-reasons-im-suddenly-interested-in-assassins-c/1100-6421668/?utm_source=weekly_newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=four-reasons-im-suddenly-interested-in-assassins-c Gamespot: Four Reasons I'm Suddenly Interested in Assassin's Creed: Rogue]</ref>
