The smoke bomb is a weapon introduced Assassin's Creed II and Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood. Using a powder "technology" from the Far East, the bomb releases a thick, grayish smoke screen for 8 seconds when thrown, to allow Ezio Auditore da Firenze to flee his enemies, or assassinate them quickly in those seconds. The clever and strategic use of Smoke Bombs during difficult assassinations or large guard fights is a very important aspect in the games, as they allow players to strike specific targets or take down larger groups of enemies without being seen or resistance, and allow players to slip in and out of hotspots undetected.
Assassin's Creed II
Smoke bombs are disposable and must be purchased for 350 florins each. Players can carry a maximum of three smoke bombs at a time, which are stored in a non-upgradeable pouch. Additionally, the smoke bomb is a useful way to get the achievements "No-Hitter," "Messer Sandman" and "Sweeper."
Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood
Smoke bombs return in Brotherhood with the same abilities as before, though the actual cloud itself is visually a lot smaller than in the previous game. Smoke bombs are also used by Assassin Recruits extensively to attack enemies, and by the multiplayer characters.

- In Brotherhood, one of the BAM (Brotherhood Assist Move) maneuvers has the Assassins throw numerous smoke bombs around Ezio before descending to aid him.
- In Brotherhood, the player may lock onto a far-off NPC before pressing the "throw bomb" button to throw the smoke bomb from a distance.
