Got this for a bargain price,brilliant game! I’m a big fan of all assassin creed games .Odyssey in my opinion is up there with origins as the best games in the franchise.
Love this game, it’s visuals are fantastic, and the gameplay is very nearly perfect. Its absolutely worthy of the name assassins creed.
Love the whole Assassin’s Creed franchise and it just keeps getting better and better with this, visually stunning, excellent game mechanics and the freedom to play in your own way (including playing as Kassandra or Alexios) exploring ancient Greece.
Simply one of the best RPGs I’ve ever played along side the red dead series and W3. I do recommend playing as the female protagonist though, the voice acting from this lady improved the game ten fold.
Very good game, in line with the continuation of the series
Great value compared to other online shops , quick dispatch time 5 stars thanks
This product IS NOT the USA version and will not work with any add on features. Do not purchase from this vendor if you live in the USA and expect to be able to download any of the additional content. It is the EU version.
El pedido lleg tal como lo esperaba y en el tiempo indicado
I don’t think I even have to explain how amazing and great this game is!! Thank you seller!! The packaged came nicely packed, and in two days after ordering!! Love the game!! Recommend to everyone!
Hi, I have no big complaints but I was just curious on why the description and words on the back of the game case is in spanish?
With AC Odyssey they have taken what works from the AC series and improved it where it counts. The world is huge, feels lived in and gorgeous! Combat feels fluid and the variety of gear is awesome. Also you can spartan kick people off cliffs so that should say it all really?
My son loves this game. On top of that, the game is fairly accurate geographically and historically. It sparked my son to research more on ancient greek history, and enthusiastically start reading The Iliad.
I was so hesitant to buy this but i thought may as well, im a big AC fan and I have all the games remastered and originals so i went in with high expectations, days later and im hooked AGAIN, i love the game, Cassandra is the best to pick if i’m being honest as the voice acting is on point with her unlike the dude. If you are looking for a cheap open world game or you are a AC fan then look no further than this game.

Gameplay: 9/10
Value for money: 10/10
Replay-ability: 10/10
Another good assassins creed game with lots of side/optional missions and tons of things to discover in free roam. The graphics are good and I’m looking forward to Valhalla
Monster game.. really recommend it.. if anything too much going on to pick from
After struggling through Assassin’s Creed Origins, I was very reluctant to get this but I’m glad I did. The story is great, the side missions are a lot less repetitive. The maps and landscapes are amazing. This fantastic gsme has rekindled my love for Assassin’s Creed
Great storyline, fantastic graphics and world, and for once it is really cool to play a female character who has not been overly sexualised.
This game has an amazing open world, with the ability to roam around on land or at sea. Although it doesn’t have that original AC feel to it, it certainly stands out as a gorgeous open world game with amazing landscapes and places to visit in ancient Greece. The game is super long, with at least 50 hours of gameplay needed, and it also tells a great story.
Pros:
Huge, fantastic-looking open world
Long main quest
Great characters and story
Lots of different things to do (side quests, puzzles etc)
Ability to travel on land and at sea
Cons:
Gameplay can on a few occasions feel repetitive
Huge open world with tons of gameplay and an interesting storyline. Very much enjoyed this game and very surprised I haven’t managed to finish it yet.
Just like store bought. Great care. Great game too, very beautiful and open with a lot of room for creativeness.
simply an amazing game ,
only downside is a lot of filler missions and the map is just so huge other than that i think its great , if you like origins , you will like this
What I like about this game is the story and side missions because they are fun to do and allows the player to interact with the world, in addition the missions created by players are also fun and unique. The combat is easy and with the skills and perks the player unlocks through progression, combat becomes easy to master in addition to stealth.
The ship the player unlocks is also an entertaining aspect due to being able to change and upgrade it to become legendary.
The mercenary system is fun to utilise to get better and unique equipment for your character
The only negative aspect of the game is the sharks you encounter through sea gameplay
Some of the game was repetitive, the caves especially, most of which had been cloned and were identical including things like where to expect loot of iron rocks etc. Same with the underground tombs, a lot of clones or near clones. Also you may find it necessary to fight your way through the same fort, fortress or limestone quarry several times, which gets tedious. First time you do it for the hell of it or for a quest, then later you have to come back again and go through it all again to hit the Captain or Leader then again after a cultist who is hiding out there.
You can “cheat” to avoid much (but not all) of the sea travel (and sea battles) if you prefer. You can hop from one island to the next nearby one on a small boat, which may capsize part way across but you can swim the rest! Just synchronise on every island then you can teleport straight there in the future and summon your ship to you, including any ship’s passengers, without you needing to sail anywhere or fight pirates etc. Some sea battles are mandatory to continue the odyssey and continue the game plot; the blockade of Paros and the subsequent battle are unfortunately necessary.
The photo option L3 + R3 was a pain as I kept accidentally activating it while in the middle of a frantic melee; but thankfully you can disable this feature in the options.
There are a number of bugs in the game and with some of the quests:
1. Some animals were trapped in a white outline limbo bug. It wasn’t possible to kill the main bear in a bear den as it was stuck inside a big rock! Also when getting the white bull there was a lion trapped inside a cart.
2. There is also a bug with one of the forts if you access it via swimming in from an underground cave – you can “fall out of the game” and get stuck in a broken kaleidoscope of shapes showing both below water and the fortress, you can’t move in any direction and just drown.
3. A couple of the side quests also had bugs, I returned to the quest originator for my bounty and it was showing the ticked diamond box above them but they didn’t respond to me; one was a soldier in a little camp and the only option was to assassinate him rather than “talk” to get paid! Another was a woman in a burned out village who completely ignored me. Tried bumping into her etc but she behaved just like one of the non-interactive characters elsewhere in the game despite the ticked diamond box above her head.
4. A serious bug was trying to rescue Barnabas (my ships captain) from the bandit camp, where all the bandits were showing a blue diamond above them and I couldn’t get any arrow locks on them but they attacked me just fine. The game couldn’t make its mind up if the bandits were foes or friends. I ended up reloading a saved game from a few minutes earlier and bypassing this location completely. Barnabas turns up on the ship later anyway so it isn’t necessary to complete that broken location.
5. There is also a bug with the quests list, towards the end of the game some quests I accepted from the message board and from individuals just disappeared (immediately) and never showed on the list.
6. There was also a bug close to the beginning of the game where I couldn’t get my first set of gear from my house from the chest after beating up the two goons, it just kept bumping and refusing to open; I ended up playing the game from the beginning again including that opening battle but still the same problem – had to reboot the PS4 box, then I could open the chest.
7. A number of the chunks of metal loot in the countryside were hovering above the ground! Some so high you can’t reach them to loot! Also there was some buried loot you could ping but not see or access below ground in exactly the same location in the cloned caves.
8. The “ping” to detect nearby loot stopped working for something like twenty hours or more of game play, then mysteriously started working again.
9. There is a bug with the ship; if you stop short of the illuminated docking area the ship sometimes gets stuck and you can’t row it in any direction, so you have to jump overboard, swim to the dock and summon the ship! Similarly when leaving port, if you stop to allow another ship to get out of the way the ship can get stuck requiring the same action or to dock again if that option is shown.
Bugs aside, the game is well worth playing and the faulty quests were much less than 1% of the number I completed without issue; similarly you can live with the numerous minor bugs.
In short, complaints and niggles aside, I recommend this game. It is very long and very open world. Lots of fun to be had.
Great game, lots of things to do in the game and the story is captivating. Only criticism is that the story could’ve been longer.
One of the better assassins creed games. Very easy to get lost in this huge world with plenty of side quests available.
Pienamente soddisfatto. Unica pecca non c’ la lingua italiana nel gioco.per il resto consegnato in anticipo rispetto al previsto e imballato alla perfezione
I really enjoyed this game. The expansive map is ripe with places to explore and discover. The combat feels fluid and natural. The abilities and skill tree mean you can collect countless upgrades and keep changing how you play. The ship combat is incredibly fun and the ship itself combined with fast travel make traversing this colossal world easy. One thing that did annoy me was that unlike in AC Orgins you have two weapons but no shield. Also the story felt less enticing than it’s predecessor and the protagonist(s) are a bit less human than Bayek was. Despite these few issues I never got tired of Sparta Kicking people off cliffs. Overall this is a great game that I would happily pay 40 for, but if it’s more than that then I’d probably wait for a sale.
Great game at a good price.
Love it and so does my si
brought as a gift for my partner who has played it almost daily since. he loves it. it was a great deal, quick delivery with the gift note and I was happy with the packaging.
Only about 70 hours in but i have to be honest its the best one ive played.
Great storylines and had some epic battles
Having had the pleasure to play most of the AC games from the franchise, I must say this is perhaps my favourite, tied in with the Ezio’s ones (ACII will always be a classic).
The game has an extensive map, many, many challenges and best of all, you can select your character. Playing as both Alexios or Kassandra comes with joys of its own, but Kassandra, if you have a chance to play as her, will steal your heart and make the game even more enjoyable.
The graphics are amazing, you have beautiful, can’t-believe-this-is-a-game sights and tons of interactions to make the game a unique experience according to what you choose. No two plays are ever the same, and the game is tailored to whatever choices you make as you are playing. Ubisoft has also made great changes to the combat system, making it fun to not only be stealthy, but to go in guns blazing and tailor your fighting style with one of a kind skills that you can upgrade as you play.
I fell in love with this game and with the franchise all over again, and I can’t wait to see where Ubisoft goes with the next AC Valhalla.
Not being played yet, but I’m sure it will be soon…
Assassin’s creed odyssey provides a fun and engaging story experience that proves to be a real treat for anyone interested in ancient greece.
I played this game last year having played all the previous AC games.
This game is a masterpiece and it took me the best part of 3 months to completely finish it.
Ubisoft have really pulled out all the stops with this game in terms of storyline side quests and the main characters there is so much to do in this game it’s a delight to play.
I can’t really see how Ubisoft can better this game in the franchise the best since AC Black Flag in my opinion.
This is a great game, I really fell deep into the storyline, it’s so emotional….. some people complain about the big map, but in my opinion this is what makes the game great. This game gives u so much freedom and its so detailed, this is i by far the most detailed, free, amazing game ever !!! Cant complain at all
Wow.
That was my first reaction when seeing the graphics on this game. It was also my reaction when I saw the map, and lastly; that was my reaction when I realised how good it was after reading a tonne of negative reviews on this game. Don’t worry, I understand people will review a game differently but simply not liking a game because it’s not a re-skin of AC2 or “this isn’t assassin’s creed anymore” is an offence on the developers on this masterpiece. Change happens. This game is still definitely Assassin’s Creed though, it delves more into the first civilisation and ‘Isu’ (artefacts of Eden) more than any other game and provides a solid basis for how those artefacts came into existence, as well as the Templar Order.
Assassin’s Creed Odyssey takes place before Origins, making it the first in the series as far as chronological timeline goes. Meaning you aren’t even an assassin, however there is no problem in this, the mechanics from the previous games still exist (free running, assassinating, swan diving into a haystack yet somehow being able to still walk after landing in it).
Having played for about 6 hours now its safe to say that this game has a lot to offer, I for one love this – a big beautiful open world game where my choices matter? With a great fluid combat system? AND naval combat similar to AC: Black Flag? YES PLEASE.
Although this game shares a lot of things similar to Origins, it is far superior in every single way. I tried multiple times to get into Origins but never could, this game hooked me after completing the prologue. You can tell almost immediately that combat has greatly improved (I always found Origins to be really janky and bit rubbish). There is one thing I find annoying which are the bounty hunters that can chase you throughout the map but once you learn that you can pay off your bounty there isn’t an issue.
I would 100% recommend this game, its big, beautiful and full of stuff to do – it is far from boring.
On a final note. If you enjoyed games such as The Witcher 3 or AC4: Black Flag you will love this.
Hard to write a short review but overall, I actually love this game and it’s history lesson for the most part. It is pretty addictive and even when you tell yourself you’re going to do this for an hour or six hours later you’re finished because there’s so much to do that is fu
There is one complaint I have: the game isn’t optimized for the PS4 Pro. The loading screens are frequent and take a long time. Also, the inventory/menu navigation uses a cursor to select options, which is very slow to navigate with a joystick, difficult to use with the touch-pad, and makes it hard to manage character traits and preferences.
This game would be much better on a PC (if you have a decent gaming PC), but overall, I would definitely recommend this game!
I’m about 30 hours in so far, and I’m really enjoying it. The stories are good, the characters are good, and it’s just a fun world to inhabit. Excellent game.
If you liked black flag and origins. As well as classical Greece and 300 your gonna love this game. The only problem I’ve encountered is putting down the controller so I could get a decent nights sleep before work
Brilliant, Just Brilliant. The first assassin’s creed game I’ve played, And now I’ve bought many more in the AC franchise. It hooked me.
Absolutely obsessed with this game! Very much a game for action games fans, ancient greece fans etc. So many missions and side missions to do in the game that it’ll keep you going!
Fantastic title much much better than origins so if you liked that you will absolutely love this. Ubisoft might just of got their act togethe
I absolutely adore this game. Having looked back at my gaming stats from 2019 I learnt that I had put over 130 hours into this game; however, if you ask my partner it’s more like 30 hours. Our little secret.
Ironically, when I first played this in 2018 I didn’t like it. Having just completed Red Dead Redemption 2 I was likely burnt out with the open world RPG genre; the horse animations felt clunky and it just didn’t stick. Luckily, I tried again in early 2019 and felt compelled to write this review having just cleared off the final Atlantis mission in the 2nd set of DLC that Ubisoft released.
If AC Origins reinvented the AC franchise, then AC Odyssey has cemented that change with this release able to hold its own against some of the best RPGs of the generation.
You’re looking at approximately 30/40 hours to complete the story but as with most RPGs the real charm is in exploring the world, accepting side quests and stumbling into new and exciting encounters. The mythical beasts were a personal highlight for me and the cultist subplot always meant there was more to discover as the play time increased.
Combat is very slick, there is a wide variety of weapons and enemy types and there is an abundance of customisation options to utilise throughout your time in Greece. The story is also very engaging and had me completely hooked (until a rather poor forced choice in the Legacy of the First Blade DLC) and allows you to essentially craft your own unique character based on a variety of dialogue choices.
In terms of the aforementioned DLC, I as actually less enamoured with this than the main game. Having spent over 100 hours roaming ancient Greece the 2nd DLC pack (Fate of Atlantis) transports you to smaller unique worlds open for exploration. Although nothing inherently wrong with these worlds, personal preference dictated I would like further opportunities to explore the main world as opposed to smaller isolated ones.
Overall though this didn’t detract from my overall experience of the game and I am eagerly anticipating the supposedly ‘Ragnarok’ Assassin’s Creed game in 2020.
Great epic game . Amazing storyline. Graphics are fantastic and in depth.
Highly recommended !!!
Good day;) I bought the game purposefully in Russian, after installing the game 2 languages were available to me, these are Russian and English. After I downloaded the ps4pro language pack that completely translates the game into Russian. Also, I think you can do it in English, that is, the audio language, subtitles, menu language, etc. The game has a very huge open world, there is something to do, although the tasks are the same. But I originally wanted an RPG system and “Very Big World” for research !!! So this is not the same old assassin for you! Although I think everyone knows what they are buying and what they will have in the end in the game! I am very pleased with the purchase, I will play but intermittently;). And yes, there is also a DLS for the game, so if you go through the main plot you can always either go to pass the world 100% or buy a DLS .. And yes … For Sparta !!!!!
You do get the option to play as a Male or female character and the story lines are different depending on options you chose.
For instance I was able to save everyone in my family whereas my fiance wasnt.
It has amazing graphics and the option to buy different mounts and gear if you want. But you can easily use the in game purchases to beat the game without spending anymore USD.
Overall I have to say again that this is hands down my favorite one.
Looking forwards to watching him play through it will pass a few cold nights in .
Action packed with lore galore. Assassins creed has been my favourite series of games since the first installment many years ago. Although it has changed since its beginning this new adventure is such a thrilling ride exploring this gorgeous open world fighting historys most legendary monsters. Start to play and you may never stop
I’m finally at level 45 which is where things start to get interesting with your base abilities etc.
This game is by far, the biggest open world game that I’ve seen, let alone played!
The map is sprawling! And it actually does a good job of depicting the Greek isles all those years ago. The only noticeable thing for me, we some of the really narrow waterways between islands. So narrow that you couldn’t even row through it.
But there’s endless things to do. I find myself bouncing around the map using fast travel to pick up missions in places I’d already been to.
Not only is this a fantastic fighting game, and many will say it’s not an AC game, but it is. The sneaking around and using triangle to assassinate is pretty much the same.
You stay out of sight, people can’t see you.
It is an AC game, only better!
I wasn’t a huge fan of AC because I was never good at sneaking around. I can’t do games like that.
With Odyssey, you can play it any way you want.
If you want to sneak, you can.
If you want to stand toe to toe, you can.
If you want to use ranged attacks, you can.
The game as a whole is enjoyable and has allot of depth to it.
A beautiful Ancient Greece, engaging storyline, interesting and amusing characters, maybe too long
I loved Origins last year, and Odyssey keeps up with the return to form. It definitely was an Odyssey, I clocked around 120 hours and didn’t do absolutely everything…..
Please check out my full review at mbsmidnightgeeks.com in video games 🙂
This was my first assassins creed since black flag almost 6 years ago and I’m so glad it was changed up this drastically. It’s all the good parts of an Assassins creed game with an RPG style and a huge gorgeous map of Ancient Greece to explore. The graphics are definitely up there with any game I’ve played on the PS4, only Red Dead 2 beats it in that regard. This game slept on me and I was blown away!
Gift for grandson and husband they love it husband has played all Assassins creed.
Grandson is now wanting to play the older ones also.
I enjoyed this more than Assassin’s Creed 2 which was already a great game. Well worth the money spent as you can easily spend 100 hours since you can continue playing after the main story itself is completed.
My son was very happy and said it was a reasonable price for a very good game
This game is incredible. The graphics, the scale of it, everything 10/10
Great game. Have hit 80+ hours and I still haven’t completed it. Rich story and brilliant landscape graphics.
First of all this is more than just a video game. It is a huge, open world adventure that is very different to any AC you’ve played before. This goes right back to the beginning of the Assassins. The recreation of the Greek world is stunning – some viewpoints in the game really warrant a few mins of just looking out onto the beautiful beaches and sweeping mountains of Ancient Greece. The lore is very detailed and the Greek mythology is prevalent in most areas. There is so many things to do there’s almost too much of a good thing – side missions and collectibles galore. But the main story mission is one that is full of detail and really makes you care about the characters. That said, I played as Alexios – a funny, macho and totally sexy character that can be a little dim at times. I found Cassandra to be annoying and I liked her less. All in all this is a stunning addition to the AC saga and definitely one of the best in the series.
The best assassins creed game I’ve played and an outstanding action RPG. Fans of Witcher 3, horizon zero dawn, far cry etc, this game has all the best elements of your favourites spanning an enormous playtime.
I feel this is the best assassins creed to date and since the direction change with assassins creed origins game play mechanics this series is no longer stale and is now good fun. Huge map loaded with missions,side quests, naval warfare and hunts and a good story when it kicks in. The choice of being male or female is a step forward too giving us more choice. This game is massive but as well all know the bigger the game the more flaws it can have and this is no exception but this is the only assassin’s creed that hasn’t had a game breaking glitch at launch for me and some bits can get repetitive but so much to do and see
A huge game with loads to do and should take many hours to work through. I’m a bit late to the party as I wasn’t sure whether or not to give it a go. I’m glad I did. I think this is quite an improvement on Origins by having a better story to it and more interesting characters. I thought Bayek (Origins) was somewhat dull and Kassandra way more interesting. The ship parts of the game have been done much better this time around as well.
I knock a star off as it gets a bit samey with any one area looking and playing much like the others. But it does play very well and is definitely worth four stars.
Played to the platinum, took 80 hours all in.
What an amazing experience from start to finish, highly recommended!
A whole upgrade improvement on origins.
Both were made back to back but the open world freedom in this version is colossal.
Play without the clues and mission way points. You’ll feel like you are totally free to explore and find missions on your own.
I rate it the best version so far and competes with the other open world games for a top three slot.
Definitely a buy if you need a long game to just dive into when you have some time. In my opinion it’s better than origins by a fair margin. It is starting to become a bit repetitive 80 hours in though,but that’s only because I’m trying to platinum the game because I’ve been enjoying it so much.
Love this game, its another great aduptation of Assasins Creed. Hours of game play, fantastic graphics and so much to do.
Completed this game about a week ago now and it was such a brilliant game!
Took me over 60hrs to complete especially with all the side missions too!
Could of spent much longer if I wanted to, but id have to quit my job if I wanted so
Overall 10/10 the story kept on shocking me and now I’m just excited for the next one to come out! Definitely worth buying if you’re thinking about it!!
The assassins creed genre taken to another level. This game is massive, but never seems to get boring. I went on to buy the season pass, which is also highly recommended !! Great game, but expect to lose over hundred hours of your life to it!!!!
Lots of content which is good for assassins creed games. If you liked origins you would like odyssey as it’s an RPG game. However, it doesn’t really seem like an AC game as there isn’t a hidden blade, which is basically the symbol for all AC Games
I have enjoyed all the Assassins series and this one is no exception.
Best adventure have I have played in a long time, beautiful world , historical references and adventure.
Superb game. As expected from the Assassin’s Creed series, geography and history are highly researched and integrated into a very immersive, detailed and entertaining game.
Possibly the best PS4 game I have played. While it doesn’t have the emotional depth that RDR2 does, it makes up for that with sheer enjoyment and 90hrs of varied game play.
Amazing.
Was a pleasure this transaction speedy delivery all as stated, all good!!
I think this is overall the best AC game. Great graphics, and easily 200 hrs of gameplay here, the world is huge. Great value.
Really enjoyed this game. Not as repetitive as the previous ones.
Not played an AC game in years as they were very samey with repetitive missions. When I heard it had gone open world RPG I thought what the heck, let’s give it a go. WOW! Mind blown! HUGE (and I mean huge!) map & soooo much to do it’s unreal! Story is amazing branching off to other side stories in many different directions. Not enjoyed a game this much since Witcher 3. BUY IT! You won’t be sorry.
Good game will take 100+ hours or close to fully complete that is the base game. Loads to do different quest they are varied enough not to get to repetitive. Graphics great game play been improved last one I played was black flag not played origins. So everything is easier to do and runs very smooth recommend. Only knock is that due to being on PS4 loading times can be a bit tedious if fast traveling from place to place.
Pros
Very long game length 100+ hrs
good weapon selection
improved gameplay/controls
Can adjust appearance through loot picked up
cons
Loading times sometimes get in the way if fast traveling
Love all installments of AC and this is no differe
Pretty much the best Assassin’s Creed game to date! It’s like Origins but 10 better, bigger and more to do.. I’ve played then all and this gets top marks.
Summary:
Graphics: 9/10
Audio: 8/10
Gameplay: 9/10
Value for money: 10/10
Replay-ability: 10/10
Awesome game! Think they were making this first rather than Origins as this is way more of a complete game so it seems!
The fighting is much the same as Origins, except you don’t have a shield, you have to have a broken spear in the the left hand and your choice of sword, dagger, staff etc in the right. You have 3 trees of skills you go down, Hunting, Fighter and Assassin. Each have their own pros and cons, and in the end you don’t really have to choose one of the other, I generally did a hybrid. In each of the trees you have active and passive skills (skills you have to activate to use, and skills that are always active once bought). The active skills you can choose their location, i.e. hunting skills always were under L2 (PS4) and you can choose X, Square, O or Triangle.
The cuts scenes were, for a PS4 game, pretty amazing, the eyes were really life like, your horse felt big and hefty, i.e. pretty real. A lot of attention has gone into the small details of the game, graphic wise.
A lot of the side missions felt a little samey, you have several types, the ones which have a golden diamond and ! in the middle, these are the true side missions and actually were more interesting. The others were dark diamonds and blue diamonds which look like the they have an hour glass in the middle, basically they’re daily missions, so you have have to complete them within a certain time, usually 24 hours and then they disappeared. These are the ones which felt very similar to each other. After the several that I completed I just ignored them as for me they added next to nothing to story and feel of the game.
Story, which is, in my opinion, the most important part of a story lead game this odyssey, was a little meh. I feel that I’m comparing this to Origins quite a lot, mainly because they’re quite similar and Origins blew me away. This just didn’t have the same impact. The story was ok and I enjoyed tracking down the “cult” but I just didn’t draw me in. That isn’t top say it was terrible either.
Overall a really good game, just don’t expect it to beat Origins.
It loses one star because of how incredibly frustrating it is to Platinum it, the achievement ‘Herme’s Homie’ is particular is poorly described, incredibly badly implemented and at the time of writing, it is the last trophy I need for Platinum and it will not pop, despite having revealed everywhere on the world map, as the text describes as a requirement.
That aside, although the story of Odyssey is not exactly riveting and tries to do too much with too many famous historical figures, the open-world sandbox gameplay was top notch: I had great fun tracking down cultists, unmasking and killing them and clearing locations.
The Mercenaries system was also a nice touch and some of the higher tier bounty hunters can be quite challenging. You certainly do not want two or three of them turning up in the middle of a mission, for example!
Combat is virtually identical to Origins but with greater variety in skill trees and some incredibly fun skills to use. A lot of the animation assets have been re-used, which is a bit of a shame but otherwise, it holds together well.
If you like open-world RPGs, this isn’t exactly Witcher 3 levels of quality but its a damn good try!
Bought for my husband and no complaints. Game plays and arrived in good condition as per product descriptio
another very good Assassins Creed game, which will take all your time 🙂 Item was delivered as promised.
Brilliantly done, I’m playing as Kassandra and she’s easily my favourite assassin yet, on par with Ezio
J’ai achet ce jeu pour le nol de mon fils. Il adore. Ce qu’il trouve embtant c’est de devoir tlcharger la langue en franais, au lieu qu’elle soit rglable ds le dbut. Sinon rien redire.
ordered this for my son for Christmas. he loves these games and i know this will get played a lo
Amazing gameplay – As soon as I have some spare gaming time AC Odyssey is started up! An expansion to Origins including a fantastic Greek setting & the inclusion once again of ships.
5*!!
Postage packing was perfect. The price was brill and it came in no time! Excellent!!!
You get to choose which character you play as and if you want the standard map or one with no ‘go here’ markers at all.
This was my first issue, I tried the exploration mode as apparently that’s how the game is meant to be experienced however there is absolutely nothing to guide you. You just amble around until you find what you’re looking for (which could be a totally different island)
There are now choices in dialogue that alter how the game progresses and if certain quests will appear or not. Everything has an effect.
The graphics are absolutely amazing and the controllability has vastly improved.
The previously clunky skill tree has been nicely refined and is much easier and clearer to use.
All round brilliant game that I absolutely adore, there is very little to not like about this one. Highly recommend
