Behind the Odyssey Video Series Recap

An epic journey will soon be upon us, and there are many new features to explore. In this four-part series, Behind the Odyssey, we take a look inside the studio where our developers share insight into how this historic time period was built, new game mechanics and strategies, and how the player choice will impact your game experience – and ultimately determine the fate of ancient Greece.

As Assassin's Creed® Odyssey takes a direction toward RPG elements, choices are at the core of the game. In this episode, developers break down why player decisions (both in dialogue and in the open world) make an impact and pave your path.

Going from outcast mercenary to Spartan hero, our protagonist takes on a very new and dynamic fighting style. Take a deeper look at how you'll dominate the fight between the Athenians and Spartans with new combat innovations, custom fighting styles, special abilities, and of course, the Spear of Leonidas.

To bring the open world to life, we can't forget about the vast seas that surround Greece. This setting created an opportunity for extensive ship customization upgrades, intense naval combat features, and strategic crew recruitment. Life out on the open sea is just as active and alive as the world created beneath the waves – rewards and treasures are waiting to be found.

During a time of ideas and war, the peak of ancient Greece makes for a lively new setting for players to explore. With this historically rich setting, some of it lost to time, the developers go into detail about how they created the beautiful and lush world of Assassin's Creed® Odyssey – and how it reacts to player choices.

With so many options and possibilities to explore, how will you shape your Odyssey? Be sure to follow us on Twitter @AssassinsCreed to keep up to date with all news Assassin's Creed.
