Who Needs Michael Fassbender When You’ve Got Cosplay?

The movie isn’t even out yet, but that’s not stopping master Assassin’s Creed cosplayer Rick Boer from taking a swing at Aguilar’s (AKA Michael Fassbender) outfit.

Interestingly, he says that while the overall design is very similar to Altair’s original robes from the games, the film’s costume is a lot more detailed (beads, little flourishes and so on) which blew out the time it took him to put everything together.

Note that while this project began as a fan work, once Ubisoft saw how well it had all come together they hired him to do some promo work for the movie.

Here’s what I mean about the detail. The hidden blades work, using a cute little string system that you’d barely notice if you were seeing the costume in the flesh.
