Wanted
Up to 8 players. Your objective is to assassinate designated targets. The highest score wins. The targets are Templars hunting you, meaning you will become both predator and prey. Quality kills will raise your score.
Manhunt
Each team takes turns hunting the members of the other team. The team with the highest score wins. Your objective is to work together to assassinate the designated targets or cooperate to hide (doing it near your teammates gives more points) and/or humiliate your pursuers.
Roles switch at the beginning of each round. To maximise your score, coordinate your actions and execute quality kills.
Alliance
(Unlocked at level 5). Pair up with a partner and go about killing other alliances. But be warned, there are two other people who will be pursuing you and your partner whilst you attempt to kill others
Advance Wanted
(Unlocked at level 12). Same as Wanted mode but no alerts are shown when a person is in close proximity with no message saying 'your target is in sight'.

Positives and Negatives
Positives
Every time you level up you acquire bonus items like a new perk, ability, or persona
Levelling up goes to level 50 ensuring longevity
Masses of stats relating to online performance
Can customise your ability, perk or streak - similar theme to the Black Ops mould
The strategic and patient gameplay provides a welcome relief for players who desire a break from the typical combat games on the market
The controls and gameplay are based on a relatively simple concept and can be picked up quite easy
Great scenery on the maps
The game looks great
No disconnections experienced when playing
Escaping from would be attackers is an exhilarating experience
Subtle differences in the game modes cater for all tastes
No real weak link in the games modes - there is a nice blend of individual and team gameplay with none being any weaker than the other
An overall satisfying experience
Negatives
Experienced problems getting into some online matches
Multiplayer does not quite hit the excellent heights of the single player campaign
Could do with more maps
Sometimes when you appear to be a fair distance away from the pursuing assassin they still are able to pounce on you and register a kill
Special weapons (similar to Leonardo's machines) could be added when someone has obtained a killstreak
Like in the single player campaign it can sometimes be frustrating when you are fleeing a scene and for your character not to climb or jump in the direction that you want. In multiplayer this can be crucial
