Assassin’s Creed: Brand overview
Assassins Creed is a multidisciplinary and multiplatform video game created by Ubisoft Montreal (France). It launched in 2007 and has since received numerous sequels, the latest of which dates back to 2018. The game was developed by Patrice Desilets, Jade Raymond, and Corey May. They created an action-adventure game with open-ended action. The result was a role-playing shooter, a walker with parkour elements.
Meaning and History
The Assassins Creed logo appeared in 2007, simultaneously with the debut of the video game. The changes he underwent were completely insignificant and did not affect his appearance. There have been no drastic changes in its history. He has always remained as the developers presented him. Each new version corresponds to the region or country that the story is about. In total, there are four versions.
What is Assassin’s Creed?
Assassin’s Creed is a series of action-adventure video games published by the French company Ubisoft Entertainment SA. It is also the name of the media franchise based on it. The plot is based on the confrontation between two factions, the Assassins and the Templars.
2007 – 2010
In the debut version, the phrase “Assassin’s Creed” is arranged in two tiers: the top line is black, and the bottom line is red. “A” and “S” in the first word are played in the same way: they are larger than the other symbols and as if framing the title. The second element is much smaller, but the space for letters in it is wider. The background for the inscription is a light gray metronome with a drawn designation of a moving arrow.
2010 – 2012
In the next version, designers removed the background graphic sign, replacing it with white, and the word “religion” was painted in black.
2012 – 2013
In 2012, the bottom line got a burgundy color. The developers also added two gray sidelines to it (one on each side) and reduced the space between the letters.
2013 – today
The current version differs from the previous one only in the color of the word in the bottom tier: the designers again made it black.
Font and Colors
The famous sign in the form of an inverted metronome appeared in 2007. It was created by one of the offices of Ubisoft. At the same time, the logo performs a double role: it denotes the video game itself and is a symbol of the secret organization “Assassins” (it is mentioned in the game). Some believe that the name of the brand consists of two letters: “A” (upper) and “C” (lower).
The debut emblem contains two elements: graphics and text. The first serves as a background and looks pale; the second is located in the foreground and is enhanced with color. The phrase “Assassins Creed” is placed in two tiers. In other variants, only the verbal part is used.
Visually, the logo echoes the theme of travel, which the creators wanted to emphasize. It is perceived as a compass needle, which is always directed forward. One of the latest series (the game of 2017) is accompanied by an emblem on the Egyptian theme. It depicts an all-seeing eye. As in other variants, the design exactly corresponds to the theme of the genre.
The “Assassins Creed” inscription is in a customized font designed by Alphabet & Type. The color scheme of the logo is monochromatic. It is usually represented by black letters on a white background.

FAQ
