Unlike in other games, Altair can retrieve thrown knives by walking over them. Weapons at Altair’s disposal include his sword, hidden blade, throwing knives, and fists. A range of assassination techniques were introduced to the series in "Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines" on the PSP and, for the first time, Altair could pull opponents from ledges. Cinematic finishing moves have a lasting appeal, even after they have been seen a few times. Combat is an especially popular feature in "Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines" for the PSP with an easy targeting system, combo options, and counter attacks. The dynamic locomotion feature adds to the fluidity of the gameplay, seeing Altair interact with the terrain automatically, diving through openings and climbing up ledges with the Free Run option – activated by holding down the R button. There are still plenty of new tricks to discover though, from parkour exploring to stealthy attacks. This allows for a seamless transition to the handheld platform to continue the assassin’s campaign against the Templars. Players of the original "Assassin’s Creed" game will recognize the near-identical mechanics in this PSP sequel with only minor modifications to suit the unique controls of the PlayStation Portable device. Visually, "Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines" is among the most impressive games for the PSP with a smooth frame rate and a color palette authentic to the Cyprus setting. Among other things, players learn more about the connection between the characters Altair and Ezio, while filling in many of the blanks between the "Assassin’s Creed" and "Assassin’s Creed II" games.
Developed by Ubisoft Montreal and Griptonite Games, "Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines" had a concurrent release date with "Assassin’s Creed II" and served to enrich the game universe with background information and character development. Picking up where "Assassin’s Creed" left off on the PlayStation 3 (PS3) console, as well as the Xbox 360 and PC consoles, "Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines" is a direct sequel with an action adventure story exclusive to the PlayStation Portable (PSP) handheld system.
