| |
| *The AnvilNext is reported to possess the ability to render crowds in their thousands, while the previous engine was limited to the hundreds.
| |
| *The engine allows for the implementation of a dynamic game world, allowing the game world to change itself over the course of time. This means that enemy settlements may appear/disappear relating to the events in the game.
| |
| *It has been stated that no previous in-game animations from the [[Assassin's Creed (series)|series]] will be carried over to the engine, with the intent of bringing an entirely fresh feeling to the game, and to the game's protagonist - [[Connor Kenway]] <ref name="gameinformer">[http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2012/03/28/ac-iii-the-redesigned-anvil-engine.aspx.
