Assassin’s Creed is one of the most successful video game franchises of all time. Originally a spin off from Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, the game has pioneered new gameplay elements such as stealth and parkour in an open-world environment. Games within the franchise have covered a variety of historical themes including pirates, Ancient Egypt and most recently the Viking invasion of Britain.

Since the launch of the first game in 2007, which had some clunky gameplay mechanisms, Ubisoft has perfected the format to create a seamless experience with amazingly detailed worlds to explore. In 2018’s Odyssey, there is an incredible level of detail both visually and in terms of historical research. This game truly brings Ancient Greece to life – from its awe-inspiring buildings to the clothing, art, weapons and religious practices.
