Gamers can now download the standalone version of Assassin’s Creed Freedom Cry which as the name suggests does not require the original Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag to play. The Windows PC version will also be available on February 25th. Take a look at the walkthrough trailer to get a better idea of the game and then make sure to check it out via XBL or the PSN.

About Assassin’s Creed Freedom Cry:

Assassin’s Creed Freedom Cry tells the story of Adewale, a man born into slavery. Once a pirate and now a trained Assassin, Adewale is shipwrecked in 18th-century Haiti, home to the most brutal slavery in the West Indies. In an effort to get back to the sea, Adewale assists the locals in exchange for a crew and a ship. The more he fights for freedom from slavery, however, the more he is drawn into the Maroon slave community, forcing him to face his vicious past. In the game, Adewale will take his new crew and set of weapons, including a machete and a blunderbuss, to assassinate enemies and free slaves, delivering merciless justice in plantations and cities alike. No stranger to the sea, Adewale will command a fearsome brig to take down slave owners in the Caribbean.
