Assassin's Creed Dynasty details the incredible journey of Li E, a shady Assassin trained by the Hidden Ones on the Silk Road. As the Tang dynasty starts to crumble, Li E will need to team up with Tang loyalists to turn the tide and save the dynasty and China from the greatest scheme the Middle Kingdom has ever faced.
In the 14th year of the Tianbao Era (CE 755) An Lushan, a military governor with ties to the Order of the Ancients, leads his elite corps to rebel against the Tang Dynasty, and the ill-prepared Tang empire falters under the threat. The two capitals Luoyang and Chang’an fall and China falls under the oppression of the cruel An Lushan. As the Tang dynasty starts to crumble, Li E, a shady Assassin trained by the Hidden Ones in the far West, teams up with Tang loyalists to turn the tide and save both the dynasty and the country from this crisis.
