Thirteen years with ATA!
Markuz, May 11th 2026

It’s that time of the year! It’s May 11th and this means it’s Access The Animus’ 13th anniversary!




We are so enthusiastic and proud to have come this far, to have followed the Assassin’s Creed franchise and its community for so long and to have seen so much and this would have never been possible without the huge and continuous support by each and every one of you.

Just the thought of being able to take care of this group initiative for 13 years, to have the opportunities to get to chat to all of you and bring you all the content we can provide, and all still with the same level of passion as when we started is so shocking and incredible to us!

First article of our Modern Day analysis
It has been a year of reorganization, where shifts and changes to our life caused us to manage the time of our disposal trying to keep the initiative as up-to-date as possible and bringing you the freshest and most detailed content [still, those two events we missed ??]
But while we did more work in the dark than we served the light, we still created our story and lore Analysis, including our written and video analysis of the Modern Day in Assassin’s Creed Shadows, we did break the freshest news on a daily basis, we did bring back an edition of our famed Assassin’s Creed Trivia and of course we had our fun with code and puzzle cracking with the “Eagle Mystery” of Assassin’s Creed Shadows, the… uncovering of the name of the Valley of Memory DLC of Assassin’s Creed Mirage, the Isu Door Puzzle, its locations and the subsequent “Blade of Yumminess” riddle in Assassin’s Creed Shadows and the more recent puzzles that provided the locations of the latest Rifts in Assassin’s Creed Shadows… and the one that was recently revealed and is still to open up!

One of our collaborations
But it wasn’t only a year of content creation, it was also a year of collaborations with many members of the community, such as Arshak from AC: Landmarks, who kindly asked us to be judges for his 5th Anniversary Photo Mode competition, or Col and the team at The Ones Who Came Before, who interviewed our Markuz in quite a deep episode of their Rally The Creed podcast and Memento Gallery and again Arshak who kindly recently participated in a livestream where we discussed an Exclusive meeting with Head of Content Jean Guesdon.

We also never cease to mention and thank the AC Community Team for the amazing support they’ve given us over the years and this past year was no exception from that. It’s thanks to them that we were able to create some of the content that we have released and are still releasing. We are talking about the giveaways we have organized, the support with previews and reviews, the behind the scenes events through which we could
Preview of the “A Puzzlement” Quest / Isu Content
create content for you such as the preview of the “A Puzzlement” Quest / Isu Content in Assassin’s Creed Shadows with Associate Game Director Simon Lemay-Comtois or the aforementioned encounter with Jean Guesdon.

And lastly, as we oftentimes do in our Anniversary articles, we would also like to take some time to acknowledge the effort our team members have been putting into the ATA initiative.Like we said, it has been a busy year and this adulting thing can definitely take its toll, but we are not dead, we’re still here. US! ATA. The ATA Team! (100 points if you got that one). But seriously, we’re still here because of your presence and support day in and day out, so thank you all from the bottom of our heart for always encouraging us and for appreciating our work!

And with all that out of the way we can finally start the celebrations for our 13th anniversary! Be sure to follow us today as we have some content On the Horizon and especially… quite an ???? unexpected secret ???? to reveal today!

Welcome to ATA's thirteenth year and, as always, stay synchronized with us!
