During the Italian Renaissance, the Assassin Ezio Auditore was able to dual-wield weapons during combat. The hidden gun acted as a dual weapon to any primary weapon that was a medium-type, such as swords and maces, and the throwing knives acted as dual weapons for the short blade (similarly to the Assassins in the High Middle Ages). Poison darts were used with the poison blade.[1]

Dual-wielding weapons offered many more types of counter kills and finishing moves, and allowed Assassins to smoothly shift between long-range and short-range attacks.

Only a few enemies, the Papal Guards and Cesare Borgia, were able to dual wield. They dual-wielded a pistol with a longsword whilst engaged in combat.[1]
