Assassin's Creed® III Remastered

Garbage remaster. I love the base game but this re-boot is so jank. Controls feel less accurate and weird game bugs that can prevent progression (slightly native to the base game but not this terrible). People have also reported saves being randomly deleted but I haven't had that issue yet. Also no one likes ubisoft connect xd

Feels more like a half assed single dev did this its so buggy. id trust a beginner coder with doing a better job especially with the glitches that have been around for 5+ years. I can't tell whats worse the dishonored dlc or this whole double game remaster. Make sure not to use the third slot at all for the ac3 dlc or else all your progress will be wiped like the people who made this. Liberation is just as horrid a game as ever. walking/swimming simulator with a horrid story. Move at all and you gain notoriety.

Has time to time bugs and unbearable glitches but nostalgic style and was the favourite game

I dont get why this game is so hated upon, it has in my oppinion the highest highs but also the lowest lows of the series nut it's still better then newer titles like odyssey or vallhala. It is still woth a try and you can have a lot of fun playing it especially on PC. I played it on the switch when i was younger but the PC version is REALLY good the soundtrack are actually something original and not just a ezios famaly ripoff. The combat is creative, fast and satisfying the parkour is very subjektive but i think it has a charm to it. Especially the modern sections are very fun and cinematic the environments are very lame but the tree parkour is very cool Im currently playing through the entire series and AC3 remake is NOT the one that should be negatively reviewed

Typical assassins creed game some rough parkour but overall decent

I think I can recommend this game to anyone who's interested in the Assassin's Creed series, as it offers a similar blend of historical storytelling and stealthy gameplay. Great!

You ever stop reading a book or watching a movie because you don’t want it to end? Me either. That’s another example of how books and movies aren’t like videogames. Because I’m at the ending of Assassin’s Creed III — I’m in the final “sequence”, which is roughly analogous to a chapter or episode — and I have no desire to find out what happens at the end. Assassin's Creed 3, in the right light, looked like a diamond-in-the-rough. The twist at the beginning of the game with Haytham was remarkably effective, but playing as him was boring. The chance to freerun across the wild frontier sounded exciting but the urban areas were completely uninteresting. When the remaster was announced, I had hoped that some of these faults might have been removed or polished before release. They were not. It seems, as far as I can tell, that nothing in the Assassin's Creed 3 Remaster has changed except the graphics. Despite everyone knowing that Haytham is actually a Templar, the game still makes you play as him for the first several hours. This overlong tutorial is painfully slow and filled with characters that feel as uninterested in the story as you do. Despite half a decade of criticism leveled against the game, nothing was done to correct the mistakes. Even the HUD remains the same, with the 360 Start/Select icons appearing instead on the Xbox One equivalents. Small changes that could have been improved for the second attempt at the American Revolution have been overlooked, leaving the bigger issues all the more apparently unchanged. Stealth is the worst, though. So many games have come and gone since Assassin's Creed 3 where you can hide around corners and in the long grass that this rudimentary attempt feels both sticky and floaty, not to mention nearly impossible to enjoy. Players can’t hide while a guard watches them, but breaking sight lines is difficult when Connor gets determined to jump along every single fence and wall and twig on his path. The story itself could have been interesting. Britain doesn’t teach that much about the American Revolution (long live the Queen and her undying empire), so exploring that should be interesting. But the characters and the dialogue hasn’t aged well. Even when Connor is as bland as ever and the surrounding characters seem to have revolted against their own personality. And despite Ubisoft's campaign of retconning Desmond's story from the series, his final arc is still woven through the story. Which might have been more forgivable if the story went anywhere. Even after ditching Haytham the pace still drags along, with extended moments of hunting, waiting and eavesdropping before anything resembling a revolution begins. At least Unity had its atmosphere right. It feels at times like the game doesn’t want you to rush, but doesn’t give you any kind of atmosphere to soak up instead. After each mission the game revokes your mini map and icons so you can ‘see your progress’, meaning that even if you want to rush through the main missions (cough cough Haytham section) you have to stand around for a few seconds before you know which way to go. It's infuriatingly slow for no discernable reason. The Assassin's Creed 3 Remaster also comes bundled with Assassin's Creed Liberation, a formerly exclusive PS Vita game that had players take on the mantle of an Assassin in New Orleans around the same time period. This has always been considered one of the best Vita games and an Assassin's Creed game that didn’t get its due popularity, perhaps due to the platform it originally launched on. And you can see why. New Orleans is a much more interesting setting than Boston and the surrounding region, and the main characters all have more of a personality. Assassin's Creed 3 had to exist, but it didn’t have to come back. Still better than Shadows though. Happy 4th of July everyone! Verdict: 5/10

Lots of jank, the not fun kind. Unimaginitive mission design and gameplay. Seems more like tedious work than fun.

Assassin’s Creed III is one of the most ambitious entries in the series. While it received mixed reactions from players, for me it was a thought-provoking journey into a unique historical setting — the American Revolution. The game boldly shifts its scenery, offering an entirely new environment, protagonist, and narrative style. The main character, Connor (Ratonhnhaké:ton), is of mixed Native American and British descent. His inner conflict, pursuit of truth, justice, and identity left a strong impression on me. Unlike the charismatic Ezio, Connor is reserved and direct, but honest and principled. He brings a different energy — serious, calm, and determined. His path is full of difficult moral decisions and conflicts, not just with enemies, but also with supposed allies. Equally worth noting is the story of Aveline de Grandpré from Assassin’s Creed III: Liberation, originally released on PS Vita. I believe her story is underrated. As a female Assassin of mixed heritage in colonial Louisiana, Aveline doesn’t only fight Templars — she faces deeply rooted social and racial injustices. Playing as Aveline offers a unique perspective and gameplay style: she can switch between personas (lady, slave, assassin), using societal roles to infiltrate and manipulate. It adds a refreshing layer of strategy. On the technical side, Assassin’s Creed III introduced major changes — a new engine, dynamic weather and seasons, hunting, naval battles, and homestead building. The world feels alive: forests, villages, warzones, and encounters with historical figures all enhance the immersion. However, the game launched with numerous bugs, and the pacing of the story occasionally faltered. Despite its flaws, this title remains meaningful to me. It offers not just action, but reflection — especially through Connor’s lens, as someone who strives for peace in a world at war. Summary: Assassin’s Creed III is a serious, ambitious entry in the series, with emotionally grounded protagonists and a unique historical setting. Though it suffers from technical issues and uneven pacing, its depth and themes of identity and justice stand out. Final Rating: 8/10

3/10 ubisoft does anything to get money but release a good remaster that isnt buggy

Не знаю, чего многие бухтят на ремастер, мне в целом нравится. Есть конечно ubisoft момент, с колектобалсами, но это можно пропустить. А так сюжетка достаточно интересная.

Good game, little redundant but overall pretty good. SO MANY CUTSCENES which is a con for me!!

its an okay remaster, there were some hiccups here and there but nothing game breaking, its been so long since i've played the original version so i wouldn't be able to tell you the differences besides the on screen icons having their color changed and the colors being more vibrant. all in all its a pretty good game, not the best ac in terms of story but the gameplay is there. don't pay full price though, wait till it's on sale, or better yet, just get the ultimate edition of AC Odyssey when i'ts on sale (which includes AC Odyssey, AC3, and liberation) and you won't be disappointed. Also, if you're looking for AC liberation, it won't show up in your steam library. it's a launch option when you start up AC3. and the tyranny of king Washington DLC is pretty cool and unique, so don't skip on that. Just make sure you play it after the main storyline.

solid, the voice acting seems a bit off but overall a good follow up game after the end of the ezio trilogy and the last game with a fleshed out modern day story.

It's somewhat nostalgic for me to play in 2025, because I played it when it it was released in 2012. The overall graphics are better and it's more optimized to play. It's a good game and introduced novel dynamics like the ship fighting and the frontier inmersive experience.

Continuing Desmond's story and ending it. Story that struggles with Depth, still story is 7/10, the main character is pretty dull and not charismatic, he is always pissed off and seems unable to interact with others without confrontation Gameplay as any before AC game is easy, so the importance of purchasing new weapons or doing missions to improve becomes unnecessary and pointless, you can just cruise through the game with the base stuff. All the side content is a waste of time and the game doesnt make it important to the story, there is no real prize for any of it. Music is garbage and also background noise during non-mission specially. For achievement seekers, I say is one of the most tedious ones I have ever done. For DLC in Steam, another game that you have to re-install some launcher to start stuff, its kinda dumb but oh well.

It's a pretty good game. improved graphics than before and a good story and some nice boating stuff too. the historical story is great already but the present day story was also good, not bad. it was a good experience. I recommend it but also should play the other previous games to get some context... or don't, do whatever you want, its a good American revolution era game even as a standalone. but whatever you do, beware of those darn wolfs and bears roaming around in the woods.

This "Remaster" is a Ubisoft psyop to actively make the game worse, quintupling the game's bugs, to retroactively gaslight people into thinking AC4 was better and hype them up for the Remake of that game. Don't buy this game, instead find someone who has preserved the original and download that.

AC3 Remastered managed to do what the Templars never could erase all of my progress with a single boot up

[b]Assassin’s Creed III Remastered[/b] in a nutshell. [spoiler]Haha, ancient aliens… Classic…[/spoiler] Still a better story than the one in AC: Valhalla. [h2]Final score: 7/10[/h2]

The best story and the best combat so far i think the combat is better then the latest ac Shadows highly recommended

For what it's worth (free, I got this from Odyssey gold edition), I find it hard to actually like AC3:Remastered. The starting controls were terrible. Putting numpad buttons to change weapons. The map is terrible. An opague botch of blue and white that only shows road (doesn't help much). Not even any pointers of north, south etc. The storyline is amusing. By amusing I mean the kind that would be tossed at 9gag because it's both silly and stupid. The protagonist isn't valiant like Bayek, doesn't emanate alphaness like Cassandra, doesn't evoke an aura of mystery like Altair, it's a cocky hillbilly boy.

“The world is changing — and so must the Creed.” Assassin’s Creed® III Remastered is a chance to revisit one of the series’ most ambitious — and divisive — chapters. Originally released in 2012, AC III was the franchise's first full leap into the New World, trading European rooftops for American forests, and introducing a more complex protagonist: Ratonhnhaké:ton, better known as Connor. The remaster brings visual enhancements, gameplay tweaks, and all DLC (including The Tyranny of King Washington), but underneath the polish, this is still very much a 2012 game — for better and for worse. Set during the American Revolution, the story follows Connor, a half-Mohawk, half-British Assassin caught between two warring cultures — and two very different legacies. The game opens with a clever twist: you spend several hours playing as Haytham Kenway, Connor’s father — and a Templar — before the real protagonist steps in. Connor’s journey is one of identity, duty, and loss. He’s not Ezio — he’s stoic, serious, and driven more by principle than charisma. While some found him emotionally distant, his portrayal is actually one of the most grounded and tragic in the series, highlighting Indigenous perspectives rarely seen in AAA games. The real strength of the story is its historical integration. Interactions with George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, and other figures are woven into a dense narrative of revolution, betrayal, and ideology. The game doesn't romanticize the Revolution — it exposes its contradictions. The modern-day segments follow Desmond Miles in his final chapter, culminating in a world-altering conclusion. While it’s polarizing, it’s undeniably bold — and essential to the series' overall lore. Gameplay was a big evolution at the time of its original release: freerunning was smoother, combat more fluid, and the wilderness traversal via trees and cliffs was a fresh twist on parkour. You’ll hunt animals, manage homestead development, lead naval missions, and blend into crowds — though some systems feel more novel than fully realized. Combat is cinematic and responsive but can feel repetitive due to simple counter-heavy mechanics. Unfortunately, the remastered version doesn’t fix all the clunkiness. AI can still behave oddly, controls occasionally feel stiff, and mission design sometimes leans too heavily on tailing or eavesdropping — both outdated by today’s standards. However, the Frontier is still a compelling sandbox. Its blend of open wilderness, towns like Boston and New York, and dynamic weather gives the world a raw, immersive feel. Visually, the remaster is a mixed bag. Lighting and textures are sharper, character models are updated, and the frame rate is smoother. In many cases, the world looks much more vibrant and detailed — particularly during natural lighting scenes. But some character faces feel uncanny, and the visual upgrade occasionally clashes with outdated animations or environmental clipping. It’s better than the original, but not on par with modern AC titles like Origins or Valhalla. Audio design holds up well. The soundtrack by Lorne Balfe is dramatic and memorable, particularly Connor’s theme. Voice acting remains strong, especially from Noah Watts, who gives Connor quiet gravitas. This remastered edition includes all the DLC, notably The Tyranny of King Washington, an alternate-history romp where Washington becomes a tyrant king and Connor gains supernatural powers. It’s bizarre, fun, and refreshingly self-aware — a bonus that adds real value. You also get Assassin’s Creed® Liberation Remastered, starring Aveline de Grandpré — another worthy inclusion that diversifies the narrative lens of the AC universe. Assassin’s Creed® III Remastered is a valuable revisit to a pivotal entry in the franchise — one that dared to be different. It tells a bold story about revolution, identity, and consequence, even if the execution sometimes stumbles. The remaster improves the visuals and packages in great content, but it can’t fully modernize the game’s dated mission design or uneven pacing. Still, for series veterans or new fans curious about Connor’s legacy, it’s a journey worth experiencing — especially with historical context in mind. Recommended For: Fans of AC lore, players interested in American history or Indigenous representation, and those who missed the original release. Avoid If: You expect modern gameplay polish or are frustrated by older design conventions. AC III Remastered is not perfect, but it’s bold, meaningful, and thematically rich — a flawed but important turning point in the Assassin’s Creed saga. Rating: 7/10

Bought the game on Steam. I want to start the game. Game is asking me for the CD key. I can't find CD key anywhere. Ubicrap Connect wants the CD key in order to activate and start the game. Can't play without CD key. 0/10 I HATE UBISOFT FROM MY HEART! I WILL NEVER BUY ANYTHING FROM THEM, EVER!

Assassin’s Creed III takes us to the era of the American Revolution and introduces a new protagonist — Connor, a half-Native American, half-British assassin. The game features a new engine, more dynamic combat, and nature-focused environments that differ from the urban settings of previous titles. The story is more serious, exploring themes like identity, justice, and personal freedom. While Connor isn't as charismatic as Ezio, the historical setting feels authentic, and the large-scale events are impressive. It’s a key entry that marks a transition to a new era for the series.

AC3 gets too much hate. I devoured this on Uplay back in the day! Yeah, it butchers stealth — Connor goes full berserker mode with that axe. But damn, combat feels brutally satisfying! Where’s the ‘assassin’ in this Creed? Gone. Yet that story? A masterclass in tragedy and frontier justice. Still a hidden gem for those craving raw action. Don’t @ me. 🪓

I bought Assassins Creed III Deluxe Edition back in 2014 and now the activation servers are down and its all the money down the drain and I have to play remastered now, because Ubisoft is a greedy ass shithole, but I want to know how the story of Desmond ends... Fuck you Ubisoft!

Amazing parkour, combat, and world.

Never played the base game, so this is good on technicality.

Sometimes people have a change of heart, and say that a game that wasn’t well received back then wasn’t actually so bad. This is not one of those games. Assasssin’s Creed 3 definitely had potential, but it got executed poorly

played 3 hours trying to finally get through these tutorial sections and then in the eagle form flying around i glitched out and kept flying forever. easiest refund of my life

the main story line is mid. Combat in general is fine if you like Assassin´s Creed. Atleast I liked the DLC mechanics with the new spirit animals. The biggest issue this game has is that it´s 24/7 bugged, a lot of the optional objectives are just dumb and only exist to fuck you up. If you ever consider to complete it, just don´t. I had literally zero fun playing it. After completing more than 30 games, this was by far, the worst experience I ever had.

AC3 has become one of my favourites in terms of AC games, but AC Liberation might just be the biggest pile of dogshit I've ever laid my hands on

Game is chocked full of hours to play. With the base game, The Tyranny of King Washington, and AC: Liberation, I got 90 hours of gameplay. Graphics looked pretty solid, voice acting and sound effects were good, and a solid story made this a lot of fun. Assassins Creed 3 follows Connor, who is trying to protect his tribes land. Covers a short time as a kid and a teen, but most of the game takes place when he is an adult during the American Revelution time period. I reallt liked this game a lot. Thought it was very well told. With this updated edition, there seemed to be more to do and some excellent missions and locations. And everything went pretty smooth with little to complain about. Was my favorite of the 3. The Tyranny of King Washington I thought had a cool story and I really liked the alternate reality that this followed as you again played Connor. Was a very cool twist. But it was fairly poorly executed. You were always recognized by the soldiers and seemed to have to fight every seconds which really slowed the story down. Combat involved a lot of fights where you were attacked by several enemies and it was very hard to break the defense. And the control completely changed which made it weird after just playing the AC3. But the boss fight was excellent and because of the way the story was told, it made this an ok game. AC: Liberation was also well told. I liked the way this story went. The protagonist is Aveline, a black woman raised by a white family. You can dress as 1 of 3 different profiles (Slave, Assasin, or The LAdy. Each offered different missions around New Orleans and the Bayou. Offered a lot of fun options you can play. Hated the controls though. You couldn't change the keyboard setting as each button you changed changed for 2 movements of action which means you couldn't move. I used my Xbox controller which was a little different for me, but worled just fine. Thats really all there I had to complain about. Had A lot of fun with all the differences this game offered. If your going for the achievements, there are 84 of them and some (I didn't get them all) are challenging.Will probably take another 25-30 hours to get. So happy hunting if thats your thing. All in all, had a lot of fun playing these games.

game is kul, but controls are shit, and some naval missions are even bigger shit

this suks if you're playing on pc with keyboard and mouse like you can't do much in a fight. i dont recomend buying this game even on sale not worth it.

great AC but this remaster is super buggy.

Cyberpunk 2077 at release is less buggy than this remaster

destroy ubisoft connect. I want this thing gone from the world.

Ac3 is one of my fav ac games I have played so far. Would recommend.

Very good story Keeps me coming back

This is literally not remastered lol

Connor's Father really went for that tribal huzz :D

A very good game, with a very good technique

The most badass character in the AC franchise

Freedom Freedom eagle screech 9/10

A best game of the franchise...

Can't skip credits thats all

very fun
