With a new world to discover, Assassin's Creed Odyssey continues on the path set by Origins, giving more choice to the players, with a bigger focus on RPG and the comeback of naval warfare. A definitive evolution of the series, and shouldn't be missed.

Assassins' Creed: Odyssey tells an epic, winding tale befitting the lesser bards of the classical era - no mean feat for a video game. That it's based in one of the most beautiful maps ever made is also nice, obviously.

Assassin's Creed: Odyssey is the best installment in this huge series for me. Mixture of Assassin's Creed's mechanics and RPG genre has been an smart decision from Ubisoft to create the most entertaining and deepest Assassin's creed experience ever that can take you to an Stunningly beautiful journey. Almost everything in this game are perfect. Beautiful world (that makes you take screenshot again and again), epic battles (with ships and on the ground), deep gameplay elements, addictive leveling system and customization, important choices, branching story, huge map and also a ton of variant content and work to do, make Assassin's Creed: Odyssey one of the best action RPG-open world games and a "must-buy" game for every gamers whether or not you have been an Assassin's Creed fan.

If you've slept on Assassin's Creed for a while due to oversaturation, and somehow missed out on the fantastic re-invention of the series with Origins, then Odyssey's refinement makes it an absolute must-play.

Again, it's more cake. Origins was delightful and Odyssey hits almost all the same notes, so there's a lot to like about it as well. But this series needs a bit of breathing room, and I hope it gets another bit of rest after this.

Assassin's Creed: Odyssey is in many ways a return to form for the series, and its rendition of Ancient Greece makes a worthy addition to the wondrous locales the franchise is known for.

Assassin's Creed: Odyssey follows the natural evolution of the new trilogy by polishing some of its playable mechanics and providing a powerful narrative with one of the best plots in the series. The new combat system with the multiple use of skills and the new character progression where every decision counts, embrace the path of the role games and give it its own identity in a world as massive as it is dinamic.

Origins was a great game, but Ubisoft exceeded expectations with its successor. The story is long and personal with many choices to make, it’s your own odyssey. Greece is huge and detailed, so it’ll take some time before you're done with the game. That’s nothing but positive.

Assassin's Creed Odyssey offers endless possibilities and consequences to almost every action and dialog. Generally, the world is incredibly beautiful and encourages you to explore and tackle new challenges. The story is epic though it has somewhat a slow pace, waiting for a main event felt like waiting for a bread crumb.

Assassin's Creed Odyssey pushes the franchise further away from action and into true RPG territory with dialogue options, branching talent trees, and an addicting armor system.

Not since Breath of the Wild have I enjoyed an open world game this much. With so much to see and do, Assassin's Creed Odyssey is one of, it not the best, game in the Assassin's Creed franchise—and absolutely a game of the year contender.

Assassin's Creed Odyssey is an epic, historical RPG that uses elements of Assassin's Creed to tell a different kind of origin story, and the results are stunning in almost every way.

This is one of the best Assassin's Creed games Ubisoft has ever made, joining the likes of Assassin's Creed 2 and Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood at the very top of the franchise's hierarchy. While its choice and consequence mechanics aren't radical reinventions, they add a great deal of agency and variation to the proceedings, while a beautiful and varied setting, a meaningful progression system, a ton of enjoyable content, and the series' best combat system all come together to deliver a memorable odyssey.
