A new real life Assassin's Creed parkour short film was released at Comic-Con this past weekend, to the delight of gamers around the world. Created to help debut the upcoming Assassin's Creed: Unity game, it is a highly anticipated follow-up to a similar stunt video that was released back in [2012](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/assassins-creed-real-life-parkour).

As full of excitement and impossible moves, the real life Assassin's Creed parkour short film took place around the city of Paris, France. This is only natural since the Unity installment take's the Assassin's Creed series to the French Revolution. The four main characters are seen chasing two bad guards who stole money from a homeless man. Throughout the thrilling chase, a slew of incredibly acrobatic moves are put on display from rooftops to tarmac and even buses.
