Assassin's Creed: Odyssey is the eleventh main installment in the Assassin's Creed series developed by Ubisoft.
The game was primarily developed by Ubisoft Quebec, which had previously worked on Assassin's Creed: Syndicate. It uses a lot of the same graphical technology as Assassin's Creed: Origins.[1] The game was announced on May 31, 2018.[3]
The game will receive updates post-release.[1]
The game's genetic memory story is set in 431 BCE, recounting the secret history of the Peloponnesian War, fought between the city-states of ancient Greece. The protagonist is a mercenary named Alexios or Kassandra who can choose to fight for either Athens and the Delian League or Sparta and the Peloponnesian League. The modern day segments will again follow Layla Hassan, who was first introduced in Assassin's Creed Origins, and her story will touch on the Isu.[1]
