History
Pursuing Pitcairn
Charlestown was visited at one point by the Native American Assassin Ratonhnhaké:ton, who traversed the town during a bombardment, during which the town was partially destroyed. His aim was to destroy the British ships, thereby putting an end to the bombarment, which would force General Jonathan Pitcairn out of hiding.
Modern times
In 2012, Charlestown was used by the entertainment branch of Abstergo Industries as a simulated location for the console stage of the Animus technology.
The simulation depicted Charlestown when it was still mostly whole, though various buildings showed signs of damage, including the town's church, which had its tower partially destroyed. Streets blocked off with overturned wagons and encampments set up near the hillside also hinted at the presence of war. Closer to the waterfront stood storage houses, as well as plenty of goods and wares that had been neatly stacked together.
With the implementation of new technology, simulated locations in the console stage were upgraded to have multiple aesthetic variations. Because of this, Charlestown could be utilized during the day, at dawn, or during the night, when a fiery conflict brewed.
