Ezio is the most known Master Assassin in the series, and probably the games wouldn’t have been this successful if not for the protagonist. The recent appearance by Ezio Auditore in a new release has fans confused, especially about his outfit, which many don’t recognize.

Ezio Auditore da Firenze is returning in the new Magic: The Gathering Assassin’s Creed official expansion, which is slated for launch in July this year. A fan took to the game’s subreddit and posted a picture of the Master Assassin, featuring a crimson and grey/black outfit, and asked where the outfit was from. The fans said that they did not recognize the outfit.

This is when the hardcore fans replied to the player, letting them know that it is a very important outfit, which many may not know as it was during the initial days of the series. One fan said that it is “Altair’s Armor,” which they can obtain in AC2 after players complete the Assassin Tombs.

They also added that the outfit also appears in other games in the series. Another fan said that the game outfit has been featured in AC: Brotherhood and has also been added by modders in games like Black Flag and Unity. One fan also shared the concept art of the armor for the fan to go on a “deeper level” and learn more.

Many added that the armor is “hands down the best-looking outfit in the whole series,” but the concept looks even better. The player mentioned in the comments that they thought they knew about the armor but were confused because the armor featured black sleeves with white stripes and not white sleeves with gold stripes.
