Assassin's Creed Odyssey

Released: 2018 — API: DirectX 11 — Engine: AnvilNext 2.0

Assassin's Creed Odyssey presents a beautiful imagining of 5th Century BC Ancient Greece on modern gaming hardware. Set 400 years prior to the events of Assassin's Creed Origins, "Odyssey" places you in the middle of the Peloponnesian War fought between Greek city states in which you piece together your warrior family that's torn apart after a tragedy. The game packs a rich collection of historical and mythical characters and places from Greece of that period.

Based on the same AnvilNext 2.0 engine by Ubisoft that powers "Origins" and "Wildlands," Assassin's Creed Origins takes advantage of DirectX 11 and is highly taxing on your hardware. Faster hardware is rewarded with better visuals.
