Assassin’s Creed 3 has been expanded with the first episode of The Tyranny of King Washington DLC story. In a historical switch up, George Washington has taken the throne and rules over the new United States. In addition to new story missions, players will gain new powers — separating this additional story even further from reality. Here, we’ll show you how to complete each of the segments to this strange new story.
If you’re still looking for help with the vanilla campaign, check out our step-by-step stealth guides on the Assassin’s Creed 3 walkthrough. For a huge list of instructional guides, easter eggs, and secrets check out this list of Assassin’s Creed 3 cheats.
AWAKEN
Following the intro scene, follow Kaniehti:io up the trail. When you get to the ledge overlooking the Bluecoats, hop down and take them out. Following the cutscene, follow Kaniehti:io to Concord.
After the cutscene one your arrive, hop up the tree and follow Kaniehti:io to the end of the branch to perform an eagle dive. After you land, you have an optional objective of killing five Bluecoats while remaining undetected. The guards on the perimeter will be easy to spot, but watch out for the ones closer to the church because if you’re not stealthy, they will spot you.
If you are spotted, a 90-second timer will begin, which is the time you’ll have to free the people from the church. Kill any remaining guards using hand combat, then run up to the boarded up doors and tap B repeatedly to save the people inside.
Once the people are released, the are will come under attack. Follow Kaniehti:io through the onslaught of cannonballs. Once you reach the rock wall, scale it to the top (you can catch some of the Bluecoats loading the cannons off guard by moving over to the right and quickly performing a stealth attack on one of them as they load the cannons).
After you wipe out all of the Bluecoats in this area, you’ll then be in charge of manning a cannon and taking out groups of oncoming Bluecoats (take out the groups running left to right first to prevent any from reaching Concord. As long as you don’t allow at least seven groups to make it through, you’ll force them to retreat.
Next, follow Kaniehti:io to Lexington. Midway through the forest, take out the small group of Bluecoats killing your allies, then continue onward. After you encounter Washington, it will be up to you to prevent any Bluecoat runners from igniting the powder kegs.
Get you bow and arrows out, because they’ll come in handy here. Kill the oncoming group of Bluecoats and the first “runner that passes by. Then listen for Kaniehti:io’s cues and look for the runners (they’ll have red icons over them) and take them out (bonus objective if you can get them before any of them light a fuse).
There will be eight altogether. The sixth one will be the hardest to get before he lights the fuse, so right after you move through the bushes, fire an arrow at him from long range before he lights the keg near the white building. Take out the last two to complete the mission.

SKY WORLD JOURNEY
Mount a nearby horse and follow Kaniehti:io. Once you get deep into the forest, you’ll get knocked off your horse and have to survive a Bluecoat ambush (hack, slack and use counters to survive).
Following the cutscene, hop back on your horse and continue to follow Kaniehti:io to the village. After another cutscene, follow Kaniehti:io again and she’ll present you with a gift your father left for you.
Use your new weapon to help save your people and defend the village from Washington. There will be a ton of Bluecoats here, so just hack and slash before a cutscene eventually occurs.
After “Mad King George” kills your mother, you can try to attack him, but there’s no way to get close to him with his scepter. After he lights you up a couple times with it, it will shift to another cutscene.
Following the cutscene, begin your jaunt toward the exclamation point on your map. You’ll encounter a couple packs of wolves here and have to scale a few mountains before you reach it. Talk to your friend to begin the Sky World Journey.
Run over to the stacks of rocks and jump toward the Red Willow Tree. To get to the top, you’ll have to perform a series of jumps to limbs on the tree on opposite sides of the trunk. This isn’t too difficult, just take your time with your jumps.
Once your reach the top (two even limbs on either side of the trunk), perform a tightrope walk to the other side and interact with the tree to get the tea. Perform an eagle dive to brew the tea down by the fire.
After you arrive in this Animus-like setting, follow the wolves (don’t touch any of the rocks during slides to complete the bonus objective). It will then be your job to track an elk that is running away from you. At the parts where all of the wolves stop, look around for nearby rocks to climb up (this is usually where the elk will be) and continue to chase after the elk.
Eventually, there will be a brief cutscene where one of the wolves enters inside of you. You are now equipped with the Wolf Cloak. Move forward up the rocks, use the Wolf Cloak to become invisible and take out the unsuspecting elk.

ONE-MAN WOLF PACK
After you come to, you’ll be surrounded by Bluecoats. Use Wolf Cloak to become invisible when prompted to. After the four Bluecoats shoot each other, head for the yellow circle on your map, using Wolf Cloak to stay hidden from wandering Bluecoats along the way.
The yellow circle will appear in three different areas when you arrive at the big green circle on your map. The locations of the first two yellow circles that appear will have boxes inside cabins, but your equipment will not be inside. The third box you come across (which will actually be located outside) will have your stuff in it.
Now that you have your equipment, head for the exclamation point on your map to begin the next mission (you can Fast Travel back to this location to meet up with another one of your friends).
Follow your friend up the hill to help him find his brother, Teiowi:sonte. When you reach the green circle on the map, your friend will say he saw his brother right around here. Move forward and look for the old man’s body next to the tree on the left.
Continue to head straight and analyze the smoking fire. Turn right and head up the slope. Make a right past the fallen horse, then a left up a little hill and inspect Teiowi:sonte’s bow on the ground.
Continue up this hill to the top. Turn left and inspect the slave cart when you reach it. After you witnessed what happened to Teiowi:sonte, head for the yellow icon. As you sprint up the hill, you’ll eventually see two Bluecoats walking away from you. Complete the bonus objective by taking them both out with one bow and arrow shot.
After you reach the next area, follow the on-screen instructions and call up your spirit wolf pack to free the slave girl. Following the cutscene, stop the runner by getting close enough to summon Wolf Pack to take him down. If you’re not quick enough, you’ll have to fight off a group of Bluecoats.
Continue to follow the yellow icon. From a safe distance from where they are holding Teiowi:sonte and other slaves, use Wolf Pack again to surprise the Bluecoats standing guard. Wipe out the entire area, then walk up to Teiowi:sonte and untie him to complete the mission.

PATH OF REVENGE
Fast Travel to the exclamation point on your map to meet up with the Clan Mother. Unfortunately, after you walk around the rock, you will find her and her people slaughtered.
Following the cutscene, head for the yellow icon. Once you spot the dead animals in the trail, hop over the railing and cut across the restricted area toward the yellow circle.
Hop through the window of the old shed. Use Wolf Cloak as exit the shed and follow the two Bluecoats to eavesdrop on them (complete the bonus objective by not using the bushes as cover.
After you hear of the plans with the slave convoy, sprint up the heel toward the red icon. Once you catch up with the convoy, summon the Wolf Pack to help you take out the Bluecoats. Kill them all to complete the mission.

JUSTICE SERVED
Fast Travel to the exclamation point on the map. Go and talk with the slave woman you rescued from the convoy. Following the cutscene, use Wolf Cloak to help hide you as you advance through this heavily guarded area.
If you go straight, you’ll eventually hit some brush by the time your cloak runs out. From there, wait, then use the Wolf Cloak again and turn to the left (running alongside the border of the barricade to the right. Wait in another pile of brush, then use your Wolf Cloak again as you turn up toward the entrance to the right, then sprint right down the trail.
After you pass the fire on the left, hide in the brush near the cannon. When you regain Wolf Cloak, use it to cross back over the trail diagonally (past the fire) and hide into the pile of grass before the two dogs come. Use Wolf Pack to kill the loan guard, kill the one dog to the left, then sprint to the left (with Wolf Cloak fully equipped), cut right up the trail up the slope (in between the four guards) and go straight into the brush.
Go right toward the arrow on your map and hide in the next pile of brush outside the area with the cabins. Once your Wolf Cloak gains full power, use it again to gain access deeper into the middle of the camp. Once you get near the middle of the circle on the map, it will go to a quick cutscene.
Follow Putnam (the guy with the yellow circle over him) using Wolf Cloak once again to remain undetected. At first, he’ll move slow and occasionally stop, so remain hidden in the brush whenever he does this.
Once Putnam gets on his horse, stay close, but don’t worry about not catching up—he’ll still stop periodically. When he does, make sure you stay hidden in the natural landscape.
When he reaches the water and after he passes the group of guards, run up to the closest shrub to hide. After he stops and begins moving again, move up the slope on the left and take the high ground. Before he crosses in front of you, use Wolf Cloak and find some cover.
When he breaks away from the stream, he’ll start to move fast, so make sure you stay with him until he arrives at his destination. Following the cutscene, move to the right. When you get near the bear cage, use Wolf Cloak as you walk up to it, free the bear and run around the back of the cage to the left.
Following another cutscene, move up the slope and to the right (don’t take the horse!) and hide in the nearby brush. There’s a ton of guards in this area, so Wolf Cloak and the natural will be your friends.
Advance up again to the brush, then make your around around the area to the right. You’ll eventually pass three guards on the left standing in front of an entrance. Pass by them (with Wolf Cloak on, of course) and turn right up the hill.
Wait at the corner of the cabin before equipping Wolf Cloak again and sprinting to the shrub diagonally across from you. For whatever reason, Benedict Arnold will just be walking around in circles. Wait for a group of guards to pass through, then sneak up behind Arnold to perform a stealth attack to complete the mission.
