Assassin's Creed Freedom Cry is a compelling standalone expansion to the critically acclaimed Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag. Set in 18th century Haiti, this action-adventure game offers players a unique and emotionally charged experience.

The game follows Adewale, a former slave turned Assassin, as he finds himself shipwrecked in Port-au-Prince. Taking place 15 years after the events of Black Flag, Freedom Cry explores themes of slavery, freedom, and revolution. Players embark on a powerful journey as Adewale works to liberate slaves and spark a rebellion against the oppressive colonial regime.

Freedom Cry retains many of the core mechanics from Black Flag, including:

• Stealth-based assassinations
• Naval combat and exploration
• Parkour and free-running
  

However, it introduces new elements that tie directly into the game's themes:

• Liberating slaves from plantations, auctions, and ships
• Using freed slaves as a resource to unlock upgrades
• Wielding Adewale's signature weapon, a brutal machete
