As for the gameplay, Level Infinite is working hand-in-hand with Ubisoft to ensure a console-like experience even on smartphones. The high quality established by its predecessors will remain, as will the ability to climb through cities, parkour on the rooftops, and assassin targets using a multitude of unique methods.

The Xiongnu will stop at nothing, and players must beat them and dismantle any conspiracies that may pop up, as loads of new challenges are thrown their way.

Assassin’s Creed Codename Jade’s closed beta test will begin on August 3rd. Interested players can register for it on the official website, with only some of them being picked to player in the CBT.
