Assassin's Creed III: Liberation , set in Louisiana from 1765 to 1777, introduces Aveline de Grandpré as the first female protagonist in the franchise. The game diverges from the Desmond Miles storyline and follows an individual by Abstergo Industries.
The game utilizes the same engine as Assassin's Creed III , allowing Aveline to perform similar actions, yet with distinct differences in gameplay and strategy. A key feature is the use of dressing rooms to change disguise between a lady, a slave, and an assassin, each offering unique advantages and disadvantages.
