Does Assassins Creed: Unity have unarmed combat?
I have have seen the combat system, but I cannot find if you can do hand to hand combat (Unarmed Combat or Fist Fighting).
Is it not in the game?
Best Answer
The game does not include Fist Fighting (Unarmed Combat)
Assassin's Creed Unity does not include many AC Standards like 'Not Being Able to Select hidden Blades' or 'Fist Fighting'
List of Removed Mechanics here! but some are wrong so I'll write down below some major changes in Unity.
[EDIT] THere is also this IGN page where they give a more reliable source of information about removed and new mechanics.[EDIT]
General Changes
- You can't whistle in cover like previous games.
- You can't pick up bodies
- No Unarmed Combat
- You just have one weapon instead of choosing between hidden blades, sword and dagger
- You can't use enemies as bullet shields
Here's a video of the combat even though it doesn't show much you can see that you can only bear one weapon and that weapon is the one selected everytime and you can't choose another. So you can't choose Fists like previous games.

Can you fist fight in AC unity?
Originally posted by Dutchitron: There's no fist combat no, but if you really don't want to kill your victims but just disable them then rifle but them, its highly effective and a lot of fun to use! And if you think that they should die non the less then you can hidden blade them while they are down.Which AC game has the best combat?
In short, Rogue is more of an extension of Black Flag when it comes to gameplay, while Unity rebuilds many aspects of the series from the ground up. If you're looking for something new (or as new as it can be while still playing Assassin's Creed) go with Unity.Assassin’s Creed Unity - Combat Tips!

Answer 2
You can not use unarmed combat or use the hidden blades as swords. You have to upgrade your blades using points you gain from completing missions. No new attacks regarding the blades, other than cinematic. It's quite disappointing but think more Hitman: Blood Money - you choose your loadout and your equipment based on stealth, speed or attack and defense, then complete your mission.
