This walkthrough is designed to help you collect every single collectable in Assassins Creed II, earn you the vast majority of Achievements/Trophies and, of course, complete the game itself. By the way, turn on subtitles in the main menu and any Italian in the game will be translated for you rather handy for those of us who only speak one language. Read our Achievement/Trophy Guide to find out how to earn the miscellaneous awards not listed in this guide.

Assassination, Courier, Beat Up and Race side missions can be completed at any point in the game when you complete the game you can return to the Animus and finish them, so you dont need to do them all before you complete the story. We also havent guided them as theyre all self-explanatory, quick missions.

You can also collect treasure and feathers at any point once districts are unlocked: we havent listed treasure as you can buy maps for them, and for feathers weve created guides for them as soon as a district is unlocked. Be on the lookout for couriers with red capes randomly inside cities: if you catch and tackle them theyll give you a great deal of money. The same is true for thieves, who actually show up as red lock icons on the mini-map: chase them down for cash.

Sequences 12 and 13 are both available via download. If you download these sequences you can instantly play them after the others have been complete. Alternatively, if you play the game from the beginning the sequences will fit into place. These two sequences are not covered in this guide, however.

The game opens with a recap of Assassins Creed and Desmonds story so far. You begin the game staring at the mysterious writing on the wall that you find at the end of the original Assassins Creed. Look around and press a button to continue, after the brief scene follow Lucy to the Animus, watch the next scene and press any button to get on the device. Dont waste time looking around, just get on.

Watch the scene and follow the prompts to fight for your survival and learn the basic controls. Youll earn The Birth of an Assassin when you return to Desmond. Follow Lucy through the door ahead (you can now run with R1/RT) and run down the corridor to the left. After the brief scene, follow Lucy through the glass doorway on the right and watch the scene way to go Veronica Mars! Follow her into the elevator.

When you get to the bottom, follow her out to the right and keep close to Lucy, making sure to run when she does and let go when she gets close to other paths shell stop roughly three times on the way to the next elevator and youll be fine as long as you keep close and stop when she does. If you manage to get lost in this room full of Animus machines, well done: you cant even follow a woman swearing at you.

At the lift press any button to unlock the door. When you get into the car park, youll have to fight your way through security guards punch with the Square/X button and grab/throw with Circle/B but dont panic: youll be ok as long as you just keep fighting back. Lucy will eventually help you out. Once theyre all down, follow her to the car. Youll earn Arrivederci Abstergo.

After the scene, follow Lucy through the warehouse, up the ramps and listen to her story. Once youve listened and had your token embrace, enter the next room to meet a new friend and... Danny Wallace. Hmpf. Move around and talk to Lucy twice and Rebecca once, then have a chat with Danny, sorry, Shaun. Once youre all talked out, get onto the Animus and earn Welcome to the Animus 2.0.

Welcome to Florence! Time for some street fighting after the scene, so get stuck in and let the game teach you some of the basics of combat: locking on, deflecting attacks and combos when fist-fighting with Vieri de Pazzis men. After the scene, fight some more and get used to mastering the counterattack hold down the deflection button and hit punch as an enemy near you starts his attack. These are the devastating moves that make you master of almost every fight in the game.

Watch out for your health though, you only have a few bars of health in the top left to keep you going, but these guys will be pushovers if youre an AC veteran or you get used to counterattacking quickly. When the fight ends, youll need to loot your sore victims to get 200 florins to pay the doctor: just walk over these severely wounded fools and hold Circle/B to loot.

Once youve collected 200f, you can loot more if you want, but you need to follow Federico, who is marked by the ! on your minimap. Talk to him and follow him down the street to the North, and over the boxes, across the beams and up the building at the end (if youve forgotten how to freerun, its R1 and X or RT and A). Follow him over the rooftop and down to the ground on the other side to meet the doctor.

After youre patched up, Federico challenges you to a race to the top of the church but hell take an indirect route, so use your free running to climb up the ledges on its front up and climb onto roof, and into the glowing circle before your brother to win. Follow Federico up the tower after the scene.

Walk onto the little perch and Synchronise to clear your map up a little, then perform a leap of faith into the hay below. Wait inside for Vieri to arrive and run off, before leaving. Vieris men will be marked by red dots on your minimap, so try and avoid them, but you can fight or flee them as necessary. Get up over the rooftops to get to the marker and down to the ground, but enter the little area to the west here to find a chest with some extra florins. Enter the glowing circle.

After the scene, climb up the wall ahead to get to her window and interact for some Italian Passion. When the morning comes, ahem, use your free running to escape the guards use bales of hay, rooftops and any hidey-hole you can find to avoid them. Just remember, you cant hide effectively while youre in their direct line of sight. Once youre free, head towards he next ! objective.

Talk to your father, Giovanni. Accept his mission and turn right, where youll find a chest containing extra florins. You can also read/listen to the letter in Database/Documents. Climb up to the buildings rooftop and open your map were going for a viewpoint before completing the mission, the one North East of your current position.

Head over the rooftops towards the marker and you should spot that its a large white tower: you need to climb up the Santa Maria Del Fiore church behind it and then jump over onto the towers North Side, then climb up to the open window on the East side. In here youll find two chests with florins in: one up here and one if you climb down carefully to the bottom. Climb back up and out of the window, and continue climbing up over covered windows and eventually onto the roof. Head out onto the perch, Synchronise and leap of faith into the hay below to earn High Dive.

Now set your marker for another landmark to the South East of here, and make your way to the Palazzo Della Signoria tower: make your way up the building below it from the Northern side and quickly beat up the guard at the base of the tower (and scavenge his florins). Climb up to the top, head onto the perch to Synchronise and dive into the hay below.
