But it’s still Assassin’s Creed, and that becomes apparent in the details of things like the pyramid Bayek explores during the above sequence. It’s massive, intimidating, and impressive. Director Ashraf Ismail said that the team has taken care, when Bayek explores any discovered, real-life sites, to replicate the architecture as closely as possible, to make it as historically accurate as it can be. One of the things that excites me about Origins is that the team has more leeway than ever to get creative with the game, while still bringing in plenty of historical and factual elements.
The big problem I’m hoping the team resolves before launch? The lip-sync in this trailer is horrible. It’s beyond bad. It’s not killer, but it’s impossible not to notice.
But if that’s all we’re waiting on, then it seems like the game is in a pretty good place for its release on October 27 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
