Assassin’s Creed 3 Easter Eggs

Stadium MMA Match Easter Egg

Here’s how to find the stadium Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) mixed martial arts (MMA) match in Assassin’s Creed 3. It can be viewed at the start of “Desmond Sequence 1: Daddy Dearest” in “Mission: Present – Stadium”, where you can attend a UFC fight in Brazil.

Normally during this mission you’ll be too busy chasing someone down while avoiding security. But pay attention once you reach the catwalk that goes over the Octagon arena! Instead of walking past it you can actually watch the fictional MMA match between Guilherme Venancio VS. Luis Otavio Duris.

See the stadium easter egg at 2:30 minutes into this video to watch the match in action:

We all need a break from saving the world sometime, right? 😀

Loch Ness Monster Easter Egg

You might recall in Assassin’s Creed 2 there was a Giant Squid hidden in the water of the Santa Maria Delle Visitazione assassin’s tomb. This time around in Assassin’s Creed 3 the developers have hidden the Loch Ness Monster!

Loch Ness can be found in The Frontiersman Mission through the “Monster of the Sea” sidequest, in which you have to listen to conversations around town. Go into a pub (shown in the video below) to see that sidequest name appear above a table of talking men, so sit in on the rumor discussion. Now that it’s active, go eavesdrop in on people talking about it around town, it’s indicated on your map so the three groups of talking people are easy to find. Apparently a man died at sea in his scuba gear while investigating this American Sea Monster, was he eaten by Nessie!?

Sasquatch Easter Egg

During the Frontiersman Mission you can start the “Finding The Sasquatch” mission!

Headless Horseman Easter Egg

During the Frontiersman Mission you can start “The Headless Horseman” mission!

UFO Easter Egg

During the Frontiersman Mission you can start “Unidentified Flying Object” mission!

Leonardo Da Vinci Easter Egg

During the Homestead Mission you get to fly Leonardo Da Vinci’s flying machine from the previous Assassin’s Creed game.

Cool Hand Luke Movie Easter Egg

Here’s a reference from the movie “Cool Hand Luke”, where when bumping into New York pedestrians will sometimes result in them saying: “What we have here is a failure to communicate!”

Hackers Movie Easter Egg

At the end of the “Boston Brawler” sidequest at the tournament against the Surgeon, the announcer says “Dance like the best, fall like the rest” which may be a reference to the movie “Hackers” line “Mess with the best, die like the rest”.

Turkey Assassin Easter Egg

Here’s how to find a turkey that wears the Assassins hood! At the Davenport Homestead manor in Sequence 6 (or later), you should stand around the corner to the left of the front of the manor and whistle. A turkey will sneak up on you from the bushes behind you. Now stand in front of the turkey and press the Konami code in-game: Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right. This will activate the easter egg and give the turkey an Assassin’s hood while feeding it! He or she will also keep following Connor around everywhere.

Hacked History Webgame Easter Egg

Additionally, the image at the top of this page comes from Ubisoft’s official Assassin’s Creed 3 Hacked History webgame. The picture of the fighter in the image even includes a QR Code at the bottom, which translates into “Desmond”. That’s the password to access this Assassin’s Creed 3 page.

The declaration there can in turn be deciphered by clicking “Decipher the Declaration” and entering the following code that was also hidden on the image above. Here’s the code string to enter:
6384-4603 555-318-5914 4615-5278-1554-242-1675 1213-5818-6423 3248-1789-2246-2195-4439-2553-216-2608 4910-5299-5468-1838 6056-4942-5361 2305-4276-3813-898-2704 362 1014-1887-2668 70-2671-2651 1491-4635-2129-1758 950-3849-3881 3265-1071 5811-4413-3245-4259-3314-2328-6684-2704 723-5297 4350-5186-2284-5668-1191 6562-201

The Ubisoft website then concludes the webgame by showing the Assassin’s Creed 3 “Previously On…” Desmond’s story recap from the game’s intro. It’s narrated by Desmond’s father, the leader of the Assassins, showing them making ready to save the world.
