  • A Farewell to Assassin’s Creed Odyssey

    15/10/2019
    It’s usually around this time of year that I’d be picking up the controller to play a new Assassin’s Creed game but, alas, that’s not this case this year. The franchise is taking a well-deserved and aptly-timed break before the next instalment – rumoured to be focused on Vikings...

  • My Love-Hate Relationship with Assassin’s Creed Odyssey’s Atlantis DLC

    17/09/2019
    Greece is beautiful. Oh, in real life sure, but I’m talking about the Peloponnesian War-era Greece that’s open to explore in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey.

  • Ranking the Assassin’s Creed Games

    25/09/2018
    After putting over 100 hours into Assassin’s Creed Origins and its DLC over the past year, I was hoping for some time off. There’re loads of games out there that I haven’t played and annualisation ultimately damaged the Assassin’s Creed brand so I wished that the next game wouldn’t...

  • Without Assassins or the Creed, is Odyssey a true Assassin’s Creed game?

    15/06/2018
    This past week, at E3 2018, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey was revealed. Well, I say “revealed” but in fact, just like every Assassin’s Creed in years, pretty much every detail had been previously leaked. We knew it was to take place in Greece, re-introduce naval combat, have dialogue options, a...
