Assassin's Creed Odyssey is the eleventh installment in the franchise. The game takes players more than two thousand years back in time. While the events of the Peloponnesian War unfold, gamers will play one of two mercenaries, with the option to side with Athens or Sparta. Odyssey is a completely new setting, with much more of an emphasis on role-playing than the previous Assassin's Creed titles.
