The setting is ancient Egypt, but long after the era of Moses and the building of the pyramids.。

Thanks for signing up!。That "living" world also means you're left to deal with a variety of more natural threats. Yes, you can ride camels -- which is way cooler than riding a horse -- but you can also hunt, and be hunted by exotic wildlife like lions and hippos.。
As you dig through the story, you'll earn experience that levels you up -- which, in turn, gives you an opportunity to unlock a range of abilities. The skill tree branches out along various disciplines, so you can favor melee/ranged/mounted combat, stealth, or scavenging. 。 Credit: ubisoft 。Also: searching bodies for loot is an instantaneous process now after you press the button. Gone are the days of crouching over a corpse for three whole seconds as you pat it down. 。 Loot takes many forms in 。Loot takes many forms in 。

The world covers a vast swath of land, including Alexandria, the Nile Delta, the ancient city of Memphis, the pyramids, and -- yes -- the Sphinx. 。
The story is actually set thousands of years after the pyramids were built -- at both the height of the civilization and the beginning of its decline. Bayek is pushing back against the unstoppable flow of progress, and the tension between his immovable beliefs and the unstoppable march of progress gives birth to the Assassin Brotherhood... somehow. 。 Credit: ubisoft 。Credit: ubisoft 。
I spent about an hour playing。 Assassin's Creed Origins 。during a pre-E3 event for Ubisoft and came away impressed with the way all of these pieces fit together. The shift to one-button traversal makes getting around the world a breeze, and the more involved combat mechanics really force you to consider your movement and positioning in every encounter. 。
Bayek also has a pet eagle that you can take control of with the press of a button. If you played 。 Bayek also has a pet eagle that you can take control of with the press of a button. If you played 。Far Cry: Primal 。
, it's similar to that. You can fly your eagle around to spot quest objectives and mark nearby foes (and, later, upgrade it to help in other ways). 。
