Assassin's Creed II outfits
In Assassin's Creed II, Ezio is able to obtain four outfits. These outfits are simply capes with different colors and, with most of them, a different emblem representing a city or family during the Renaissance. It is also possible to obtain two bonus outfits. The first, Altaïr's robes, can be unlocked by purchasing it for 30 Upoints from Uplay. The second, a black set, can be used after purchasing the Assassin's Creed II 3D mobile game from Verizon, wherein the clothes become available at the Tailors after entering a code in the game's main menu.

Trivia
- Altaïr's Robes changes Ezio's model to Altaïr's, the same seen in Desmond's hallucination sequence. Their differences are shown as the left ring finger is amputated, the right hidden blade does not have a physical form on the character despite being usable, and the beard Ezio gains during the battle of Forli sequence is not present while playing with this skin in these sequences. Though Ezio's voice remains the same, he does not speak during taunts, instead only gesturing towards the opponent, similarly to Desmond's taunting motions in the credits scene.
- There are also four other outfits which do not appear on the outfits screen:
- Carnevale Mask: Your notoriety will remain at zero in Venice during Sequence 9. Your outfit cannot be changed during this time.
- Golden Carnival Mask: This has no effect on your notoriety.
- Noble Suit: The clothes Ezio wears before he obtains the Assassin's robes. Your notoriety will remain at zero while in Florence.
- Guard Armor: The clothing and armor of a Leader-ranked Guard worn while delivering the Apple of Eden to Rodrigo Borgia. While wearing the armor, Ezio will remain unnoticed by guards, until reaching Rodrigo.
- While the inside of the capes are set to a specific color, they can be changed if Ezio's Assassin's Outfit is dyed a different color.
- There are several glitches while wearing the robes of Altaïr. If Ezio has no more throwing knives, the holders are still full of them. The scabbard for the knife on his back is also empty, and the animation for putting the knife away shows it being placed on the hip, by the sword, but it disappears once put away. The player can still use the dual hidden blades, but there is no blade visible on Altaïr's right hand. Unlike in the first Assassin's Creed game, there is no scabbard for Altaïr's sword, it simply hangs at his hip with the blade exposed. If wearing the robes of Altaïr when acquiring the hidden blade, instead of wearing Altaïr's robes, you will wear Ezio's, but after Leonardo gives him the blade, the robes will change into Altaïr's. Also, when Ezio receives his Assassin's mark, a glitch may occur, because Altaïr had his ring finger removed.
- In Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands (another Ubisoft game), for 30 UPlay points, you can buy Altaïr's costume and put it on the Prince.
