Echoes of History

Dive into the real-life history that inspires the locations, characters, and storylines of the legendary world of Assassin’s Creed. ‘Echoes of History’, a Ubisoft podcast brought to you by History Hit, is the place where listeners can explore the narrow side streets of Medici-ruled Florence, cross sand dunes in the shadow of ancient pyramids, climb the rigging of 18th century brigs sailing across the Caribbean and meet the most powerful warlords in Feudal Japan, all before stepping ‘into the Animus’ to understand how and why these moments are recreated in the acclaimed historical game series. Every week, join historian Matt Lewis, and regular contributor Holly Nielsen, as they speak to historical experts about the secrets of the past and uncover how these stories influence Assassin’s Creed.

Really dig this podcast!
Jan 19
I'm a fan of the Assassin's Creed series of video games and I also enjoy learning about historical events. Love the presentation of the podcast. It would be cool if they talked about the games more but I guess historical scholars don't have much time for an Assassin's Creed game.

This is a wonderful podcast trying to give you the history behind the games. They give a good effort getting historians in to help explain major plot points. Really enjoy this latest season on Japan.
Biased and inaccurate

This is NOT history. The bias is clear.
An Excellent Podcast!

I grew up playing Assassins Creed but never took the time to appreciate the real world historical influence found within each game. Now that I am older and find history more interesting I am happy to have stumbled across this podcast. Ali and the others do an excellent job of narrating and I look forward to their future content!
