Assassin's Creed has become such a successful franchise in large part, due to how good Ubisoft is at marketing these games. And a big reason for that is the CGI cinematic trailers Assassin's Creed has become known for. Due to popular request, I finally decided to rank all these trailers based on my personal opinion. But keep in mind I still really enjoy all of them and there is truly no such thing as a "bad" Assassin's Creed cinematic trailer.

I remember seeing the AC3 trailer play in theaters when I watched The Amazing Spider-Man in 2012. Talk about chills...
I can’t imagine seeing that trailer in a theater that sounds amazing
Damn, do they still show game trailers in cinemas? I haven't seen a single one.
Oh I'm so jealous that must've been insane!
Two underrated gems in one sitting
Didnt they make the trailer for syndicate before deciding that it would be dual protagonist?
AC3 taught us more about American Revolution than our history textbook ever did
my history teacher showed us some game play on AC3 to show us the Boston Massacre, that was my favorite teacher
When connor go through an entire army will always be badass
For me, it's Revelations. It's close though. I think the music, fighting scene with Ezio, and the reveal of the "synchronization" of Ezio and Altair is what makes it. There's just so much emotion attached with this trailer. It's incredible.
As a kid I always dreamed of Ubisoft making an animated AC movie, because of these trailers. I love them all and watch them from time to time to this day.
Bro, i remember in 2006 when they just released a promotional artwork even before the first trailer, i was mind blown
I think Mirage’s trailer ticked all the boxes for me. - great music - character development - great setting - plenty of stealth - plenty of action
My headcanon is that the AC Syndicate cinematic trailer takes place after the main campaign because Jacob has a different hairstyle then he does in the game and this version of him is obviously more skilled then the one we saw in the game plus this version of him is already well-established gang leader which he wasn't until the end of the main game
Dude revelations and woodkid's iron is just one epic combo
Ac brotherhood cinematic is absolutely memorable and masterpiece it is always my favorite bc I love how badass this cinematic is, ac brotherhood deserves no.1
AC unity's trailer will always be top for me, everything from the music, to his comrades melting out of the smoke, to my goosebumps when arno leaps off the building when the music kicks back in, to the fact that they left the french commander for the people to get vengeance on, just perfection. other than that slight beef, great video lol
i agree and i totally have watched the whole video.
Altiar couldn't have his bow gun because it was deemed unrealistic. But now we have Chimera's. Giants. And soon Youkai in code name red lol
It’s not unrealistic the reason why they removed it because it made the game to easy.
Ye but then they put it in Ezio's game so that just voids that excuse🤣
@@theshadowsamurai07 Sigh. It was deemed unrealistic due to the point in time where Altairs game takes place. Anyone who wants to find this information can easily just look it up. But I know I'm expecting far too much from this era of the internet.
@@Nightxx9199how bro felt after this reply: 😈👹🚬🗿
Also really like AC Unity’s Elise reveal trailer. The whole set up, the music, parkour, and the twist at the end🔥
Completely agree
I have always loved the way these trailers showed you what can and what will you do during the gameplay. Things like disarming, social stealth, hiring, boarding the ship, secret weapons. Amazing job.
Great video You could also rank the opening of each game like the first few minutes of the games maybe?
ac1 and mirage trailers encapsulate what being an assassin is supposed to be perfectly
I mean, I'd never put Origins and Unity this low but I respect different opinions 😁
Origins n.1 obviously
@@Sjgodblessall you misspelled unity
@@Envixin753 O. R. I. G. I. N. S right?
@@Envixin753bro
@@Sjgodblessall no it's U.N.I.T.Y
hey man i love your channel and effort you put into your video.. you're the reason i play assassin's creed because the way you show us how fun it is 😂❤
The AC3 trailer is just so good, it showcases how unstoppable Connor is when he’s on the battlefield! There’s a fan cut of the trailer with the song Run Boy Run by Woodkid that goes so perfectly with it, just gives me chills
Love your video, and I like a lot of their Trailers
I have no idea how you keep coming up with ideas for Assassin's Creed games. I guess there's a lot of interesting stuff about this series.
The Assassins Creed Orgins cinematic trailer still gives me goosebumps to this day, and the transitions😍😍>>
i fully agree with this list, nice video idea. i think codename red will, i mean mirage was a smaller game so it would be weird why the rpg style wouldn't get one.
Amazing video!!! Origins is my favorite game in the series but I love the AC3 cinematic trailer the most as well!!! AC3 was the first game in the series that I played. 🤩🤩🤩😎😎😎💯💯💯💙💙💙✨✨✨
The first AC cinematic trailer I watched was back in 2022 it was The Assassin's Creed Revelations cinematic trailer and I fell in love with it and it is by far my favorite AC cinematic trailer out of them all
Two trailers that I like very much that are not on the list are the Assassin's Creed Chronicles China trailer and the Freedom Cry trailer, the musics on those trailers are fantastic
Hey MasterAssassin! I would love to see a video where you rank the main soundtrack of each game
An interesting ranking video could be " Protagonist that made the most impact/importance on the lore of AC (Ranking Lore Importance)"
It has to be Haytham right ?
@@duhc2312 My money is Bayek (Co-creator of the Order) or Altair (Completely reshaped how the order functions)
Least importance is most likley the Misthios of Odyssey or maybe Arno
When the AC4 trailer pulled up at the last place I had mini-heart attack 😅
That part you mentioned about Brotherhood's you said "Ezio watches from a distance" Yeeeaaaaah you knew what you were doing with the script :D
10:50 my favorite part of unity trailer was the part where arno just kills the guard that was holding the kid while just walking up to the rest of the guards with no fear that was pre badass
That unity expectation vs reality clip really caught me off guard 😂😂
are you gonna make a 6 years of far cry 5 video? i love hearing your retrospectives on older games
Ubisoft should make a cinematic trailer when they rerelease Odyssey on Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5 (or any future console). They could do the same for other rereleases such as an Evie trailer for Syndicate or Aveline trailer for Liberation. There are plenty of examples of companies going back to older games and doing more for them. Gearbox released Borderlands 2 new DLC in preparation for Borderlands 3 and The Last of Us was remade after a remaster.
i was in high school when ACIII cinematic trailer came out me and the boys were all blown away, constantly replaying it on the school computer and that.
Valhalla is my favorite trailer. I get chills when Eivor reveals the hidden blade at the very end.
I've not played Valhalla but that scene gives me chills
Origins also just has the vibes man "you want it darker, we kill the flame" just fits so well - my 2nd Favorite and AC3 is the best IMO as well for nostalgia reasons :)
Shay talking that talk And at the same time he hides the hidden blade and takes off the hood, taking away everything that made him look like an assassin b4 he kills the Assassin That shyt hit different But revelations gotta be my fav
I remember AC3s trailer being fully dubbed in ptBR, and Brazil lit in fire, since it was the first game that really recognized us
You know, I love Unity. It created the best parkour mechanics in the entire series. Despite the issues, it was multiplayer. It was a great segway into the next generation of consoles. The game did a lot for my younger self. But I'll never forget watching the trailer for 3 in 2012, going to gamestop and getting my little hands on the game. Booting it up on my ps3 and finally playing it right before bible study. There was a day when school was in session, and I got sick, I stayed home, and played 3 all day. The satisfaction on that day when Connor got older and finally put on the Assassin suit. I stopped playing through the story for weeks just to assassinate every guard in my path.
I still remember as a kid 2014 when AC Unity's trailer first came out , we used to have discussions about who were the other 3 assassins with Arno and made speculations like there's Ezio, connor ,Altair among them ( some time travel shit ) . AC Unity was so hype 😆
AC 3 is one of the absolute best❤️🪶
One thing worth highlighting is most of these trailers were made by Digic Pictures. An animation studio based in Hungary. They made many more epic trailers (like for R6 Siege, Witcher 3, League of Legends, etc) What I really like in AC trailers is they are probably the only game trailers that showcase the actual gameplay. My favourites are AC2 and Brotherhood. PS: I still don't understand why Odyssey didn't get a CGI trailer.
I will never forget the first time I watched the ac revelations trailer. It was the peak of the franchise and the hype was off the rails
I hate that i always thought altaïr just straight up threw the crossbow at the guard and not actually shooting it until i saw it slowed down here 😂 Also nostalgia is heavy with this video, watching the trailers ubi made and the amazing music accompanying each of them. Chills. Just chills.
Revelations just gives me the biggest shivers. Ezio is semented as one of the strongest mentors in AC, wrecking the ambushers. Had he actually had one of his weapons and smokebombs, he mightve taken them out.
9:52 to 10:31 got me laughing so hard 😂😂😂😂
there’s just something abt the shot of the rope around ezio and him looking over at the phantom of altair for me.
I have Revelation in my heart, its just that beautiful, its baddass, its memorable, its iconic, and have the best music compared to other
Bro you have to start your assassin’s creed marathon on your channel from 1 till mirage 🙏🏼
The AC III trailer was the first thing I have ever seen from Assassin’s creed. It is so nostalgic to me. I was like 6 when it dropped. My father used to play the old games when they came out and me as a kid, I always watched him play and watched the cinematic trailers. Back then, AC III became my favorite and that never really changed.
Only an American would think AC III has the best trailer lol. Other than that, great list and explanations. Made me super nostalgic.
If you can do video of ranking the settings of all ac games in depth, that would be really cool to see ❤ Something like video from so says jay channel
I remember watching the Valhalla trailer when it dropped and the reveal of the hidden blade gave me chills and hype. I thought “no way we get a Viking assassin” and, I guess I was right… in no way we got a Viking assassin 😂😂
Loved the vid man! I’d say my top 3 are: AC: Revelation’s AC3 AC: Unity
A video like this ranking Far Cry trailers would really be cool
Great selections for top 3! Although Valhalla at 11th is wow 😱
Valhalla trailer is great but it has nothing to do with the Assassin fantasy
@@salmankhan2739 this is a cinematic trailer ranking...
@@TheHiddenOne690 I see your point but still, much prefer the trailers that show actual assassins doing cool shit than Vikings fighting.
@@salmankhan2739 if we're going off your reasonings, why has he put syndicate behind valhalla when it's assassin focused? also origins cinematic trailer has 0 correlation to assassins but that's high up in the video
@@TheHiddenOne690 the valhalla one is the only part I agree with him lmao, I also don't like AC3 being #1, imo AC Mirage or Revelations should've been #1 cause they showcase the best of the assassin fantasy or the story/theme at their peak. My ranking is not the same as his at all so my reasoning is also not the same as his.
For me it is AC Revelations. To do a cinematic trailer to show us where Ezio is and where we go was brilliant. I enjoyed the look of it, though AC3 is close second for me. It is so cool Connor being a beast! Good ranking
i finished revelations last week "this used to be easy", this line broke me man
I think the part where Conner uses his tomahawk to slash the redcoats face off and you can hear the sudden scream of the redcoat.
I don't know if you've used this idea yet, but a video where you ranked the opening title intros would be cool.
Connor is so silent and doesn't care about anything really but is so badass (Edit) bye the way your vids so good
seeing the assassins creed rogue trailer made me hate shay, but after playing the game and realizing he was misunderstood he is now my favorite protagonist
For me the #1 is the AC Revelations Woodkid trailer
The last ac game that gets made needs to be a modern day assassin game where the hidden blade has a belt in mini gun and instead of a horse we have a motorcycle
My favorite trailer is the AC3 one,it really shows how fricking cool conner is
I watch them before any replay! Love this trailers.
I just like rewatching these trailers! Ubisoft is very good at that!
Ironically, that last part is my favourite mission out of entire assassins creed games 😂
I've Always kept 3 n Revelations side by side... Aaah memories 😊
I remember when I started playing assassins creed in 2022 and it was in assassins creed origins. I saw a video during 2022 about games where you can go beast mode and I choose ac as in ac origins. When I saw assassins creed brotherhood in a new video about the same topic I was confused because I didnt know any of the first assassins creed games. wierd I know.
RANDOM FUN FACT: as a huge fan of the series that pays attention to all the details in the trailers, the original AC1 trailer always triggered something in me in the last frames with the view of the city. One day it hit me, the devs probably used some pictures of places that still have medieval architecture AND THE CATHEDRAL WITH THE ROUND WINDOWS THAT APPEARS IS MY CITY'S !!! Saint Petronio's cathedral in Bologna, Italy🇮🇹 I could never find proof, but you can look it up. I've seen its silouhette all my life and i'm dead certain!!!
minute 14:44 in the video if you are curious
The AC unity one just gives me chills every time the music choice is perfect and showing you can go with homies to take down Templars together is such an epic feeling,also showing the phantom blade which is my fav version of the hidden blade.the stoicism of Arno in the trailer is also something I love which is why I also love Altair and Connor. My top five trailers would prob be: 1.ACU 2.AC3 3.AC Revelations 4.AC2 5AC1
Bro cooked with this vid tbh, the ranking is perfect
Hey master assasin i am now new member to show you i support you
Mine's AC: Revelations. Got me really emotional.
I agree with almost all of your list. I would only really switch the Origins and the Brotherhood trailers.
Revelations is the GOAT trailer (with narration)
i feel i like the original trailers most because they don't show too much you can't do and it's just the basic gameplay but made cooler, expect for the crossbow in ac 1's trailer everything in the first couple trailers is pretty attainable
I think the bar scene from syndicate is my favorite
This ranking is actually probally the most relatable for everyone
Revalations will always be my favorite 👌
I remember playing AC Revelations for the first time in 2011, and seeing the cinematic trailer IN THE GAME! It blew my 14 year old mind.
Can you please rank assassins creed boss fights
The "Blades" trailer for Syndicate was so short, so simple, yet so good.
Modern day video-game visuals look so good nowadays the games are starting to look like the cinematic trailers
Worth noting that pretty much one company made all of these trailers and they are called "Digic Pictures" They've made loads of iconic CGI trailers for plenty of other games too, I'll always love the Brotherhood trailer the most out of these but honestly almost all of them are perfect, Syndicate, Valhalla and Mirage are the only forgettable ones
Personally my top 3 assassin's creed cinematic trailers would be AC revelations in 1st the AC Rouge in 2nd with AC Syndicate in 3rd(I do wished Jacob and Evie got there own dedicated cinematic trailers)
Assassin's Creed Revalations Trailer has actually stuck with me for YEARS. the song. The atmosphere. The visuals. EVERYTHING. it's a mini masterpiece Shocked it isn't #1. Heck I enjoyed AC3 as a videogame way more than revelations. And even then my opinion stands.
I saw another KZhead make a video like this but hands down my fsvorites are AC brotherhood, 3 and unity and revelation
It´s a Hungarian Company, Digic Pictures, which produces these insane cinematic trailers, not UBISOFT. Digic Pictures created the most insane cinematic trailers of all time. For example: Mass Effect 3, The Witcher III, Final Fantasy XV, Destiny 2, several Call of Duty titles, League of Legends, Sekiro, Rainbow Six Siege, Elden Ring, etc.
gotta say these trailers made me want Arkham style combat in the games
Revelations, so much nostalgia
Odysessy had a CGI Trailer but it was never released due to it being dark
As you mentionned if you are a fan of AC you like every trailer. That being said, my heart beats for Unity's trailer 😍😍
Thought I would watch this while liberating roma in brotherhood
AC Revelations and Brotherhood are my fav
I'd agree that ac3 trailer is best if it was cannon. As we know in the game, Connor doesn't fight an army but sneaks through the battlefield to assassinate only his target. Revelations trailer in my opinion
next time do a which assassin has the best outfit
With the snake in origins I always assumed that it killed the order of ancients guy?
