Discovery Tour: Ancient Egypt is an educational mode for Assassin's Creed: Origins.

The mode was released as a downloadable add-on on 20 February 2018 and is available for free to those who own the base game, or for purchase as a stand-alone version on PC. In it, players are to free roam the game's map of ancient Egypt and learn about the kingdom's history through a series of guided tours.

Discovery Tour: Ancient Egypt, however, was heavily criticized for intellectual dishonesty and deliberate historical revisionism and inaccuracy of Egyptian society of the time (as confirmed also by the "Behind The Scenes" narrator), showing an education system in which females in reality were typically excluded but in the game is instead gender mixed.
