Familiarity at the palm of your hands
Assassin’s Creed Codename Jade is a free-to-play adventure game developed by Ubisoft featuring the classic Assassin’s Creed gaming experience but with touch controls. The game is set in China in the year 215 BCE during the Qin Dynasty, which also includes sightings of the Great Wall of China. Other locales, including Fushi City, Redwoods, Didao Ridge, Gaonu, Gaonu Terrace, and Yangzhou City are also present in the game.
Being an open-world game, Assassin’s Creed Codename Jade gives you the freedom to explore the area and create your own assassin, something that isn’t present in the previous iterations of the game.
A well-loved classic
Assassin’s Creed Codename Jade shares some semblances with its other titles, such as Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla, making sure avid fans can enjoy everything they loved about the game series. With it being an RPG, you have the complete liberty to customize how your in-game assassin looks, including the ability to choose their gender. However, this ability means you can’t play as characters like Connor Kenway, Ezio Auditore, and others.
Players can use the character customization feature to their advantage by using it to boost their character’s weaponry, stockpiling supplies, and decision-making skills for a more engaging gaming experience. There’s a wide selection of unique weapons for you to choose from, ranging from knives, swords, bows, and more, allowing you to go as wild as you can in customizing your character.
However, if you’re looking for a caveat about the game, there’s not much to mention unless it’s on the technical side. For one, the game features performance-intensive graphics, which means devices with low to mid-range specs could struggle during gameplay, causing the device to heat up and deplete the battery faster than usual. For the non-technical disadvantage, the customization feature also means you cannot play as Assassin’s Creed characters.
Expanding the game’s reach
Presently under the Closed Beta stage, Assassin’s Creed Codename Jade is set on broadening its footprint by setting up servers in North America and Western Europe. Currently, the game showcases English text and voiceover, providing an immersive experience for its player base. The developers assure the community of future updates, pledging to cater to a more diverse audience and expanding inclusivity across various languages and regions.
A journey to the ancient Chinese civilization
The narrative unfolds in China during the second century BCE, a period that heralds the dawn of an exceptional epoch marked by brisk trade and vibrant cultural interchange between the East and West. However, it doesn’t come without its share of tribulations and hidden dangers. Assuming the character of Master Wei Yu’s adopted child, players will be propelled onto a riveting journey of retribution in the face of deception.
As players probe deeper into their quest, they unravel shocking revelations about the past and encounter a formidable power that imperils everything they cherish. They will embark on an immersive journey, traveling from the grandeur of the Great Wall nestled at the edges of the empire to the majestic imperial capital, Xianyang. Their mission is to provide a strong defense against the formidable Xiongnu, while simultaneously untangling intricate conspiracies.
Brings the video game to smaller screens
Assassin’s Creed Codename Jade is the mobile version of the top-rated video game series, set in 215 BCE China. Users can enjoy the same thrilling gameplay, however, players cannot play as established characters due to the customization feature. Plus, it uses performance-intensive graphics that can cause devices to slow down, so it’s best to ensure your device can handle the game before installing.
