Tunnel

Niccolò showing Ezio the entrance to a tunnel.

In Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, Niccolò Machiavelli introduces Ezio Auditore to a tunnel network that passes underneath Rome, which he can use to quickly travel to several points in the city, and avoid the notice of any guards. The tunnel entrances may be used or travelled to, as long as they have been repaired or renovated by an Architect.

The tunnels, which are the equivalent of the fast-travel stations in Assassin's Creed II, have the letters SPQR engraved over the entrance. When selecting the area in Rome where the player wants Ezio to go to, there is a brief cutscene of Ezio opening the latch on the gate and entering, though the player is not able to see or travel through the tunnels themselves.

Additional Information

• Each tunnel that is renovated will generate income which Ezio can then collect from a bank.
• The maximum income that can be generated, by fully renovating all eighteen tunnels in Rome is 1690 florins.
• The tunnel in the Assassin's Guild is the only one which Ezio does not have to renovate.
• Ezio can access the tunnels through the Tiber River at entrances near Tiber Island, but in doing so he can only exit within the Assassin's Guild. He can, however, then use this tunnel to travel to any other.
• The Vaticano district is the only district in Rome that cannot be accessed by the tunnels.
