1666 Amsterdam Is the Next Game From the Creator of Assassin’s Creed, Demo Available Now on Steam

Panache Digital Games and Patrice Désilets, the creator of Assassin’s Creed, have announced 1666 Amsterdam. Not only that, but a playable demo of it is currently available for download on Steam.

In this game, you will be able to explore a handcrafted Amsterdam by day. At night, you will uncover what lies beneath its surface.

In 1666 Amsterdam, you will assume the role of Noa Brooklyn. Noa was born The Collector, and raised by the Zaindaris. Her duty is to take back the power from The Originals, entities that have lived for centuries.

The Originals walk among Amsterdam’s citizens, hidden behind human faces. As Noa, you’ll have to identify them, and mark them. And when the Esbat comes, you’ll have to confront them in their true form under the moon.

Noa commands witchcraft and spellcasting passed down through generations of Zaindaris. And, similar to Assassin’s Creed, each target can be approached in multiple ways.

Noa will not be alone in the game. Aaron, summoned from 1999, now sees the world through the eyes of a cat. Together, they are one. Players will be able to switch between Noa and Aaron across two radically different playstyles. One wields witchcraft. The other has four paws and flair.

You can go ahead and download the prologue demo from here.

Before wrapping up, I should note that 1666 Amsterdam will launch in Early Access. That’s a bit disappointing, as I was hoping for a full release rather than another Steam Early Access title. Still, it is what it is.

Enjoy!
