Assassin's Creed Liberation HD is an action-adventure game developed by Ubisoft for Xbox 360. Set in 18th-century New Orleans, it follows Aveline de Grandpré, a female Assassin battling the Templars and fighting for freedom against the backdrop of colonial conflict. Players uncover the truth behind Abstergo Entertainment's censored portrayal of the Assassins while exploring Aveline's journey.
In the modern day, Abstergo Entertainment, a subsidiary of Abstergo which is in charge of producing multimedia goods, releases their first major product, Liberation, a video game about the life of the Assassin Aveline de Grandpré. The game, however, is heavily censored, with any details regarding the Assassins - Templar war being comitted, in an attempt to portray the Assassins as the villainous force. As the player progresses through the game, they are greeted by messages from a group of hackers known as Erudito, giving them access to the full story hidden behind Abstergo's censoring attempts.
