Yo mommas like a toll booth. Only a pound to enter.
 
After being spotted in concept art and being mentioned in the E3 2010 Single-Player walkthrough, Jean Francois Boivin confirmed that long-ranged weapons, such as the crossbow, would be available for use in ''Brotherhood'', especially in advanced [[horse]] combat. Some [[guard]] archetypes (such as the [[Crossbowmen|Crossbowman]]) will also have the crossbow as a weapon. [[Ezio Auditore Da Firenze|Ezio]] and his [[Assassin apprentices|apprentices]] [[File:240px-Ezio_Crossbow_1.png|thumb|Ezio equipped with the Crossbow.|left]] will be able to use the crossbow in melee combat, attacking guards with the metal lathe, then shooting them once they're on the ground.
 
In the third developer diary, it was stated that the crossbow will be upgradeable, but how to this and what will be upgraded is unknown. However, certain videos have shown different kinds of the Crossbow, with varying appearances and targeting times. Additionally, a section for the Crossbow has also been seen on the selection menu of a [[Blacksmiths|blacksmith]].
 
The maximum amount of ammo is suspected to be 25 bolts, which are implied to be purchasable from blacksmiths. The way the crossbow is fired seems to be of similar fashion to the [[pistol]] used in [[Assassin's Creed II|''Assassin's Creed II'']], though faster and having the ability to move around and be on beams while targeting; wherein locking onto an enemy and holding the Armed Hand button causes diamond markings to close in and form a white line as the weapon is aimed.
