But youd be wrong.

I hadnt played it before these guys approached me, Fassbender tells EW.

Were striving to find something special.

We believe the whole concept around it is special and want to service that the best we can.

The fans are really passionate: very specific and they expect accuracy and historical detail.

Were really trying to capitalize and feed on and enjoy the fun element.

Were working hard to make this something special.

A lot of the stuff in the game isParkour, Fassbender explains.

Blades attached to his wrists.

Its about getting in close to the target, close quarters fighting.

But he shrugs off questions about his physical feats on set.

Ive learned how to roly poly, tumble turn, Fassbender says with a laugh.

Stuff you’ve got the option to do in everyday life.

No just basic fight choreography stuff.

I did some horse stuff today.

So stuff like that.
