Assassin's Creed: Origins
Developer: TBA
Publisher: Ubisoft
Platforms: PC, PS4 & XBOX One
Release Date: TBA

Assassin’s Creed is set to return in 2017, back from its brief hiatus after having skipped 2016. For keen fans of the series, however, the incessant leaks emerging from this year’s installment have almost made it as though it never left us. As E3 2017 looms, these leaks are only becoming more frequent. Under the veil of anonymity, Ubisoft sources have approached us to provide fresh details from this year’s game.

Previously, the good folks at Kotaku indicated that the project’s working title was Assassin’s Creed Empire, and that it would take place in Egypt. Since then, we’ve received new information that suggests the game is now called ‘Assassin’s Creed Origins’ and is currently scheduled to be revealed at E3 2017.

Our sources suggest that Origins is a vast open world experience taking place in ancient Egypt. The story is rumoured to revolve around the original assassin’s guild and will feature two main characters - a man and a woman.

Its structure is said to be less linear, featuring a character progression system less tied to the story. A development source we spoke to compared it numerous times to Bethesda’s Skyrim. They say that impressions of the project internally are so far positive.

The game will apparently grant the player considerably more freedom, featuring a greater emphasis on exploration over previous entries in the series. One source tells us that this is the biggest Assassin’s Creed the company has ever created and is “huge” in scope. They say that it has been in development for “at least” several years now. Hopefully, it will benefit from this extended development cycle.
Not only is Origins rumoured to boast an explorable ancient Egypt, players will also apparently be able to go beyond it - possibly even as far as Greece. We were told that boats will return in the game, allowing the player to sail the Mediterranean. Naval combat, naturally, is also said to be included.

Another source linked with Ubisoft described to us an internal video they were shown of a teaser for Origins. It apparently began by showing scenes of Egypt, before transitioning between different periods and locations throughout history, including an Asian country, WW2 era France, and a modern day Abstergo Industries facility. It isn’t yet clear whether this video, a blend of gameplay footage and CGI, will be shown to the public in its current form.

Assassin’s Creed Origins is currently set to launch in fall 2017.

finally open world type RPG korse plus have shadow of modor type theme i liked this somehow , plus eagle vision er ei version ta better

[Muhammad Zunaid]

the controllable eagle just doesn't make any sense... it's like a drone from watchdogs 2... there, its fine but but the old eagle vision was way cooler... you had to get to high vantage point and use eagle vision to check out the targets... plus you can pause the eagle midflight and rotate camera to get better view...

Kinda surprised why no one has been talking about this game here since it's been launched. Anyone whose playing- how you liking it so far?

The only thing that's been bothering me is the bad optimization, but according to Mr Joker here I really shouldn't be complaining about that if I'm getting a constant 30 fps+ on a Ubisoft game, right?

[codename5302]

@TRazerK , what kind of problem you are talking about? would you please share it? IMO this is by far the best optimized AC game i played in the recent years. there is a report of stuttering due to patch 1.05 but fortunately still i havent faced it yet. most wonderful thing is i play at 4K with a 980ti and still get around 45 fps at high setting. that's a good optimization IMO.

Would you say 45-50 fps average is also good optimization even at 1080/1440p? Cos that's what I'm getting at high settings with a gtx 1070

I believe the game doesn't have a crack for it yet, hence no one's talking about it lol.

There's always offline activation.

More like nobody in BG talks about games anymore.

The game's good from all sources. The DRM is little PITA for PCs but everyone's talking about how awesome it is. But I've past the stage where I wanted to play every AC game that comess out. But might pick up in a few years when it goes to sale.

these are my results for both 2160p & 1080p. but i believe the OS or Driver has a big impact on performance because i recently changed my OS to win10 and already the avg fps is 4-5 lower than win8. btw did you set the option of AA too high cause it eats almost all the performance? @TRazerK

Now is a good time to mention that the only limiting factor for me in this game is my CPU: i5 6500. The game won't run at 60 fps+ average at 1080/1440p if you don't have an i7. Unfortunately for me I bought this CPU at a time when people still used to say that a 4C/4T CPU is more than enough for gaming. This is the first time I've face such a massive CPU bottleneck in any game I tried, so I guess it's time for a CPU upgrade for me. Here are my 1080p and 1440p results, all settings high. And also, changing AA from high to low doesn't give any fps boost for me obviously



[Can't upload more than 1 image here for some reason. For 1440p the result is 56 fps with same settings]
