Sydney, Australia – September 28, 2017
– Ubisoft®
has announced that an innovative new game mode is coming to Assassin’s
Creed® Origins, called Discovery Tour by Assassin’s
Creed: Ancient Egypt. Allowing players to explore Ancient Egypt and
learn about its history from guided tours, Discovery Tour will be a free
update for all Assassin’s Creed Origins owners in early 2018.
In
this dedicated mode, players can free roam the entire interactive 3D
recreation of Ancient Egypt in Assassin’s Creed
Origins free of combat, storyline or time constraints. From Alexandria
to Memphis, the Nile Delta to the Great Sand Sea, the Giza plateau to
the Faiyum Oasis, players can immerse themselves like never before in
the rich history of Ancient Egypt. Discovery
Tour will offer dozens of guided tours curated by historians and
Egyptologists, each with a focus on a different aspect of Ptolemaic
Egypt such as the Great Pyramids, mummification or the life of
Cleopatra.
“From
the beginning, the Assassin’s Creed franchise has always explored
pivotal moments in history, from the Third Crusade
to the Italian Renaissance, and this year Ancient Egypt,” said Jean
Guesdon, creative director of Assassin’s Creed Origins. “It’s a dream
come true for us to offer Discovery Tour by Assassin’s Creed: Ancient
Egypt, an educational mode built specifically for
people to learn more about the incredible history of Ancient Egypt
through the interactive experience made possible via a video game.”
Assassin’s Creed Origins will be available on October 27, 2017, for major consoles and Windows PC.
