Whenever we talk about Assassin's Creed roommates, there are always many things, but as a real assassin, the most classic weapon choice may be a sneak sword. With the continuous launch of the Assassin's Creed series, the weapons in the game have also changed to a greater or lesser extent. Now, let's introduce the latest changes in this series. In Assassin's Creed 5 (Assassin's Creed Revolution), we have a new weapon, The Phantom Blade, which replaces the previous sneak sword, allowing players to kill enemies from a distance and remain hidden in the game.

Okay, this is not the first time we have seen hidden melee weapons such as Shoujian turned into ranged weapons in the Assassin's Creed series. The game's chief designer Alex Oedneault put Ezio's pistol and blow darts, and he also said that Arno, the new protagonist in Assassin's Creed 5, will also have a new set of his own weapons. The Phantom Blade is a modified crossbow that can be upgraded later in the game and uses different kinds of blowing and blades. Concept artist Romko Troost is the one who designed The Phantom Blade. This inspiration comes from a certain original design, and Alex Amancio proposed to increase the ability to attack remotely. We can also see these from the concept design diagram above.
