Welcome to the new weekly virtual photography roundup hosted by Aaron Young from The AC Partnership Program.
​
Every week, we will be picking our top 5 favourite Assassin’s Creed shots and showcasing them on The Ones Who Came Before website, in order to promote virtual photography and talented content creators within the community.
​
Aaron is a keen virtual photographer and loves to post his journeys through Assassin’s Creed on Twitter.
Keep an eye on the site as more weekly shots are added, we are looking for capture across all Assassin’s Creed games. Tag your photos to the #TOWCBWeeklyCapture for a chance to be featured.
And that sums it up for this week’s Assassin’s Creed virtual photography recap list!
Thank you for checking out this week’s photo collection. This would not be possible without the virtual photographers out there so a huge thanks to them. Until next week keep those shots coming in!

5) Raiding
​
Game: Assassin’s Creed Valhalla
​
This week’s first capture comes from @KupOfGreenTea using the #TOWCBWeeklyCapture
​
A stunning capture of Eivor’s longship docked at a raiding point in England. I love the stillness in this shot especially knowing the carnage that is likely happening behind the lens. The clouds coupled with the mist really make for a moody scene. The sun breaking through adds a warmth that makes this shot very picturesque.
2) The Streets
​
Game: Assassin’s Creed Unity
​
VP number four comes from @Zorik323 over on Twitter.
​
Unity was a fantastic game and this shot expresses why I loved it so much. The detail in this capture blows me away. It shows off a parkour playground with its balconies, washing lines and signposts.
I love the dull colour of the buildings rising to the bright foggy sky. The addition of Arno standing atop the buildings just tops off a magnificent shot.

4) Paradise
​
Game: Assassin’s Creed Origins
​
Photo number two comes from @Helenthirty over on Twitter.
​
A beautiful shot from Origins which really stood out. Most Origins landscape captures are of the desert so this one caught me out. I don’t actually remember the location from the game. I love the vibrant colours, the light blue sky with the thick white clouds really makes this shot pop. The ancient structure and the placements of the boats gives a real Odyssey feel.
3) Assassin’s Creed
​
Game: Assassin’s Creed
​
This week’s third shot comes from @RobRagiel over on Twitter.
​
What a gem. I have not played this game since 2007. A true great that started it all. This capture really defines Assassin’s Creed. Altair on top of a building looking out across the city. The whites and greys so focal back then with the red of the Assassin standing out amongst the crowd.
1) Leap of Faith
​
Game: Assassin’s Creed Valhalla
​
The final capture of the week comes from @bagarete using the #TOWCBWeeklyCapture
A fantastic capture that both looks good and clever at the same time.
What impresses me most is the Roman statue looking at Eivor who appears to be following Synin in flight towards the sun. The haze below adds a hint of mystery, especially with the old Roman buildings.
