Skipton, Wyoming, UK – November 29, 2024 – Assassin’s Creed has had some truly unique swords over the years, but perhaps the most iconic is the Sword of Altair from the original Assassin’s Creed. Now you can own a truly legendary piece of gaming history for yourself. The official release date is today, Black Friday!
This beautifully sculpted sword was meticulously crafted using over 200 references and hundreds of hours of gameplay from the original Assassin’s Creed, released in 2007. To create this incredible 1:1 scale, we had to reverse engineer this sword using only low-resolution polygons and pixels. The clone, Raven Forge, also drew a large drawing of his own sword fighting background to get an idea of not only what this sword should look like, but also the size and more importantly what it should feel like.
This is the armament sword, the knightly sword, the sword drawn in times of emergency when subtlety fails and armed combat is the only option. Heavy enough to block a guard’s blade, but light enough to move easily. The swooping eagle quilon or crossguard is made to be aggressive and angular, simulating a hunting bird of prey. The inverted “V” signature on the blade below the triple puller is meticulously hand-polished for each sword that passes through the door. When you hold this sword, you will know that you are holding the legendary sword of Altair.
Painted in the colors of the Brotherhood along with a beautiful wall plaque in the shape of the Assassin’s Creed logo and the polished stainless steel and spiral black leather of the replica sword, it comes with a stunning double-sided certificate of authenticity and a hidden easter egg for the true fan of Assassin’s Creed, prop replica weapons or really any The ultimate addition to your pop culture collection.
Now that the partnership between Ubisoft and Raven Forge is solidified, you can expect to soon see highly collectible legendary weapons and merchandise that will excite the Assassin’s Creed fanbase just as much as the Sword of Altaïr!
As this is the first in a highly anticipated collection of legendary items from iconic games, TV, and movies, Raven Forge continues its push into the world of luxury collectibles, with more coming soon.
