Altaïr's reveal trailer primarily makes reference to the maneuvers used by Assassins throughout the ''Assassin's Creed'' series. It begins with the Mii Swordfighter landing in a bird's nest on [[Skyloft]], akin to the Leap of Faith, a move used to safely fall from great heights by landing on a soft material, most commonly a pile of hay. During the move, a faint screech from a bird of prey can be heard while the Assassin is airborne, which is reflected in the trailer. Following this, the Swordfighter is seen hanging from an [[edge]] in [[Gerudo Valley]] where {{SSBU|Sheik}} stands near, then briefly getting up and [[back throw]]ing Sheik into the chasm below, mirroring a similar move used when hanging on ledges to pull a near target downwards to their death with the assistence of the Hidden Blade. Afterwards, the Swordfighter confronts {{SSBU|Robin}}, whose appearance resembles that of Al Mualim, Altaïr's mentor, wearing a dark cloak and wielding a sword, as well as another item. This mirrors an event near the end of ''Assassin's Creed'', where Altaïr must confront his mentor to prevent him from further controlling the minds of the Masyaf populace at his will. The tome held by Robin represents the Apple of Eden, an item held by Al Mualim throughout the confront, with the casting of [[Arcfire]] resembling the Apple's strong, yellow glow. | Altaïr's reveal trailer primarily makes reference to the maneuvers used by Assassins throughout the ''Assassin's Creed'' series.
