Assassin's Creed Brotherhood follows Ezio Auditore da Firenze as he continues his adventure in Rome. He is now the leader of the Guild and has to battle against the Templars, led by the Borgia.
There will be more cinematic sequences to increase the 'epic' feeling.

Rome will be the only city you roam around in. It is the biggest map ever in an Assassin's Creed game and will be 3 times the size of Florence in AC2.
Map of Rome showing some symbols like viewpoints, assassination contracts, borgia towers, assassin's tombs and some unfamiliar symbols. There is a unique symbol on the colliseum.
Horses now play a bigger role than before. You can now ride your horses in cities and utilise them as part of acrobatic sequences, escapes and advanced combat. Before, you could only use the sword but now you can use various types of weapons on horseback.

As the leader of the Guild, you will have several assassins under your command. You can recruit more and also upgrade their armor or weaponry. These assassins can be sent on missions for money and experience points. You control all these using pigeon coops.

Rome is split into several districts that require liberation. You have to kill the guard leader and destroy the tower to liberate that district. Liberated districts will have more shops where you can buy upgrades and tools. Scattered all over the city are Borgia flags to be removed.
Yet to be liberated districts are dark, the borgia towers are glowing red. Locks are a mystery.

There will be more enemy types and the guards will also be more aggresive and attack simlutaneously. To counter this, Ezio now has many more combat moves(sword and gun combo) as well as slick finishing moves( Ezio threw an axe at an enemies head). Players who strike first and strike fast are rewarded. There is also a new weapon, the crossbow.
