Assassin's Creed III: Liberation is an action-adventure game released in 2012. and it got its remastered version in 2019. featuring enhanced graphics, visuals and performance.

The story follows a female assassin called Aveline de Grandpre who fights against the Templars, who are trying to take control of New Orleans.
Even though both AC III and AC III: Liberation games are labeled as Assassin's Creed III, there are few differences between them. For example, this game encourages you to take the stealth approach, while Connor mostly used the direct approach to all situations.
Also, you play as three different Aveline's personas, each with its weapons, abilities and missions.
The notoriety system is even more elaborated than Assassin's Creed III, which raises after doing anything suspicious for the persona you're using. For the assassin persona it's already raised, offering a more cautious approach while using it.
The main story has two endings, a fake and a true one, which offers two sides of the same situation.
The main story is also a bit shorter from what you would expect, but it still offers an impactful character and story.
The combat is fluid and somewhat similar to AC III, but since this game is much shorter, it also offers a narrow choice of weapons, both melee and ranged.

When I would have to decide which game of the two got a better remastered version, AC III: Liberation takes that spot as a more stable and a more graphically improved game.

All in all, a great title in the Assassin's Creed franchise, offering a more stealth experience with an impactful character and story.
