Description

"Enter a world of mysticism, machinations, and murder in which the mighty and noble do whatever is necessary to protect their supremacy, where rebellion grows in the darkest streets and alleys, and where those with the power to kill have the power to change the world. When a man has won all his battles and defeated his enemies, what is left for him to achieve?"^[1]

"Ezio Auditore must leave his life behind in search of answers, in search of the truth. In Assassin's Creed: Revelations, master assassin Ezio Auditore walks in the footsteps of the legendary mentor Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad, on a journey of discovery and revelation. It is a perilous path - one that will take Ezio to Constantinople, the heart of the Ottoman Empire, where a growing army of Templars threatens to destabilize the region."^[2]

Deaths

Instead of stabbing Leandros in the chest, Ezio shoots him and lets him bleed to death.
Death of Leonardo Da Vinci is mentioned.
Ezio shoots the Templar Captain in the Imperial North Den attack.

Equipment

Instead of using the Apple of Eden to protect Niccolò and Maffeo Polo, Altaïr rides with them on horseback to Masyaf's main gate.
Instead of going to the Assassin Hideout to relieve Altaïr's memories, Ezio experiences them as soon as he finds the.Memory Seals.
Eagle Sense is not mentioned.
Ezio is given his crossbow by Yusuf.
It is the first mention of parachutes in the novel.
Ezio does not practice the long jump, he only learns how to climb with the Hookblade and the Hook and run.

The details of Ezio and Sofia's wedding are mentioned, as are the births of Flavia and Marcello.
Ezio's journey to Masyaf is described with more detail.
The events of Assassin's Creed: Embers are showcased after the main story.
When chasingAhmet, the fall from the cliff is omitted, and only the carriage chase is described.
Masyaf keys aren't found through completing puzzles that involve free-running.
