Easter eggs

Assassin's Creed II has some few Easter eggs unlike its predecessor (while many other games had Easter eggs related to Assassin's Creed such as Metal Gear Solid 4, Grand Theft Auto IV and the 2008 version of Prince of Persia).

Mario

Giant Octopus

thumb|300px|right|Action starts at 1:20! A giant octopus can be found in Santa Maria Delle Visitazione. The octopus appears after activating the lever that brings out the bars to swing and traverse the final chamber. To find the giant octopus you must look down the water near the lever for a minute. Once a minute or so has passed a cutscene showing a large octopus should pass by. A second cutscene can be activated if the player activates the lever and looks down again. The cutscene shows Ezio narrowly dodging the giant octopus's tentacle, then swims away.

Altaïr's Outfit

It can also be worn in conjunction with any cape, allowing the player to wear the Altaïr outfit and still maintain 0% notoriety with the Medici or Venetian Capes.

The Bonfire of the Vanities

Analyzing what could have happened during the corrupted memory sequences, Shaun evokes the Bonfire of the Vanities which occurred in Florence and Rebecca says that she loves the movie of the same name by De Palma. Shaun then sarcastically suggests that it is not the appropriated moment for such comments.

Tools

Some NPC's tools can be uses as lethal weapons.
