It is the tenth major installment in the Assassin 's Creed series and the successor to 2015 's Assassin 's Creed Syndicate. It was released worldwide for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One on October 27, 2017. The game is set in Egypt during the near end of the Ptolemaic period ( 49 - 47 BC ) and recounts the secret fictional history of real - world events. The story explores the origins of the centuries - long conflict between the Brotherhood of Assassins, who fight for peace by promoting liberty, and The Order of the Ancients -- forerunners to the Templar Order -- who desire peace through the forced imposition of order. Origins received positive reviews from critics, who praised the story, characters, voice acting, reworked gameplay - systems, immersive world of Egypt and the visuals, while criticizing some of the pacing and technical issues. The game has been lauded as either the best or one of the best installments in the series by multiple critics.

Assassin 's Creed Origins is an action - adventure stealth game played from a third - person perspective. Players complete quests -- linear scenarios with set objectives -- to progress through the story, earn experience points, and acquire new skills. Outside of quests, the player can freely roam the open world environment on foot, horseback, camel - back or boat to explore locations, complete optional side - quests and unlock weapons and equipment. The `` eagle vision '' mode, which was used by the franchise to give the player the ability to scout an area by highlighting enemies and objects, has been replaced by a Bonelli 's eagle named Senu as a companion. The player is able to take control of Senu and scout an area in advance, highlighting enemies which will then be visible when they return to controlling Bayek, the game 's main character. The player can also tame various predators which will serve as a companion for the player and assist them against enemies. Naval combat, underwater exploration and tomb raiding return to the series. The game also features revised combat mechanics. Previous titles in the Assassin 's Creed series used a `` paired animation system '' whereby the player character would engage with an enemy and combat would be dictated by a series of predeterminted animations based on player inputs and scripted AI movements. Origins moves to a `` hit - box system ''. When the player wields a weapon, they will strike at whatever is in range, allowing them to hit enemies directly, injure individual body parts, and creating the possibility of missing an enemy entirely. Complementing this is the way weapons fall into different categories and are rated on their damage dealt, speed and range. Enemies will be drawn from several basic archetypes that use a variety of tactics in combat which, combined with the hit - box system, will require the player to learn the attributes of individual weapons and tailor their playing style to succeed in combat. As enemy combat is also dictated by the hit - box system, the player has been equipped with a shield and will need to balance their offensive and defensive capabilities. Locations within the game world are designed to enable the player to choose their playing style by offering stealth and open combat as equally - viable choices for completing objectives. Origins introduces an arena - based combat system where the player fights waves of increasingly difficult combinations of enemies culminating in a boss fight. While the introduction to the arena is incorporated into the main story, the arena mode stands alone from the wider narrative. The game world features several arenas, with a variety of enemy combinations and unique bosses not found in the game world. The player is able to unlock additional weapons and equipment by completing arena fights. A future update to the game will add `` Discovery Tour '', a sandbox mode allowing the player to freely explore the open world with no objectives or combat, and embark on guided tours that highlight aspects of Egyptian history. Plot Setting The player takes on the role of a Medjay named Bayek and his wife Aya, as they work to protect the people of the Ptolemaic Kingdom during a time of widespread upheaval : the Pharaoh, Ptolemy XIII, struggles to maintain his rule while harbouring ambitions of expanding his kingdom ; his sister, the recently deposed Cleopatra, begins marshalling loyalist forces to launch a counter-coup against Ptolemy ; and frequent incursions into the Kingdom by the Roman Republic under the command of Julius Caesar lead to fears of an imminent invasion. Bayek 's role as a Medjay brings him and Aya into contact with the secretive forces manipulating these events and into becoming the first Assassins. Synopsis This article 's plot summary may be too long or excessively detailed. Please help improve it by removing unnecessary details and making it more concise. ( November 2017 ) In the present day, Layla Hassan, a researcher at Abstergo 's Historical Research Division, is tasked along with her friend and co-worker Deanna Geary with finding and retrieving an artifact in Egypt. However, she instead finds a tomb containing the mummies of ancient Assassins Bayek and Aya. Hoping to find any relevant information that would secure her a position in the company 's Animus Project, Layla decides to relive both Bayek and Aya 's memories using her modified Animus without telling her superiors, despite Deanna 's protest. In 49 BCE, Bayek, a respected Medjay in charge of protecting the Siwa Oasis, is abducted along with his son Khemu by a group of five masked men to an underground vault in the Temple of Amun. The masked men give Bayek a golden orb and demand that he use it to open a secret Vault. Khemu helps Bayek escape, but during the struggle to kill one of the masked men, Bayek inadvertently stabs Khemu in the chest, killing him. One year later in 48 BCE, Bayek had exiled himself from Siwa in order to track down the five masked men to take his revenge. He finds the first one, Rudjek `` The Heron '', and kills him. Bayek then returns to Siwa to kill the local priest Medunamun, `` The Ibis '', who has been torturing Siwans for information to open the same vault. After killing Medunamun, Bayek then heads for Alexandria, where Aya has been tracking another of the masked men. Upon meeting Aya, she reveals that she has already killed Actaeon `` The Vulture '' and Ktesos `` The Ram '', leaving only one target left, `` The Snake ''. Aya also reveals that she has been working with Apollodorus the Sicilian and Cleopatra to uncover The Snake 's identity. She gives Bayek the first Hidden Blade, which he uses to track down and kill Eudoros, whom he believes to be the `` Snake '' in a bathhouse. Killing Eudoros costs Bayek his left ring finger, cut off from the same hidden blade to kill his target. Bayek remembers Eudoros ' words and begins to have doubts. He decides to meet with Apollodorus and Cleopatra for answers. Cleopatra tells Bayek that she was ousted from the throne by the masked men, who call themselves the Order of Ancients and seek to control all of Egypt by using Ptolemy as their puppet. In addition, there are more members of Order than the five Bayek and Aya had already killed : `` The Scarab '', `` The Hyena '', `` The Lizard '' and `` The Crocodile ''. In fact, Eudoros was actually `` The Hippo '', and the name of the Snake is used to refer to the Order as a whole. Confronted with this new information, Bayek agrees to become Cleopatra 's Medjay and assassinate the remaining members of the Order. Bayek tracks down and kills all of them while Aya convinces Pompey the Great to ally with Cleopatra. In the present, Layla and Deanna are attacked by Abstergo soldiers for failing to check in with the company. Layla kills her attackers, but Deanna is captured and executed. Swearing revenge, Layla returns to the Animus, determined to complete her mission. Bayek receives a letter from Aya explaining that there are two more members of the Order, `` The Scorpion '' and `` The Jackal '', who are members of Ptolemy 's royal guard and the likely culprits responsible for Khemu 's death. He finds out that Lucius Septimius is the Jackal and tracks him, but is too late to stop him from assassinating Pompey. With no other options, Cleopatra has Bayek and Aya help sneak her into the palace to meet Julius Caesar. Cleopatra impresses Caesar and secures his support. Bayek kills Pothinus, `` The Scorpion '', but is stopped from killing Septimius by Caesar. Aya watches Ptolemy get eaten by crocodiles when he tries to flee across the Nile. After the end of the civil war, Cleopatra takes the throne as Pharaoh. Septimius becomes an advisor for Caesar and Cleopatra cuts ties with Bayek and Aya. This causes Bayek and his supporters to realize that Cleopatra and Caesar have now allied themselves with the Order. Realizing his mistake in supporting Cleopatra, Bayek gathers his allies to form a brotherhood to counter the Order and defend the free will of the common people. Bayek and Aya realize the Order showed a strong interest in the tomb of Alexander the Great, which they investigate. There, they find a mortally wounded Apollodorus who warns them that Caesar 's lieutenant, Flavius, is `` The Lion '' and the true leader of the Order. He and Septimius had taken the Orb and a Staff from the tomb and are heading back to Siwa for the Vault. Upon returning to Siwa, they find the Vault already opened. Bayek tracks down and confronts Flavius, who bears the activated Apple of Eden, but kills him, avenging Khemu 's death. Bayek returns to Aya, who has recruited Marcus Junius Brutus the Younger and Gaius Cassius Longinus to their cause. She plans to head to Rome with Brutus and Cassius to assassinate Caesar and Septimius. Bayek and Aya part ways but form the foundation of the Assassin Brotherhood when they both swear to protect the world from the shadows. Upon their separation, Bayek drops his eagle 's skull charm, a necklace of Khemu 's, into the sand which leaves an impression, becoming the icon of their new Brotherhood. After this, Layla wakes up from the Animus to find William Miles, present day Mentor of the Assassin Brotherhood watching over her. She accepts William 's offer to work with the Assassins, but stops short of actually joining them. The two depart for Alexandria. In Rome, Aya confronts Septimius, who wields the Staff of Eden, and she kills him. She then infiltrates the Roman Senate and assassinates Caesar. Later, she meets with Cleopatra and warns her to be a fair ruler or she will return to assassinate her. Afterward, Bayek and Aya ( now calling herself Amunet ) begin recruiting and training other Assassins as they build the Assassin Brotherhood in Egypt and Rome respectively. Characters Main article : List of Assassin 's Creed characters Development Development of Assassin 's Creed Origins started in early 2014, after the completion of Assassin 's Creed IV : Black Flag. The series had been following a yearly release cycle, but after the launch of Assassin 's Creed Syndicate in 2015, Ubisoft chose to delay the release of Origins until 2017. Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot cited a desire to focus on the quality of the individual titles, the opportunity to develop future games with new engines, and the disappointing sales of Syndicate as the reasons behind the decision. The team enlisted Ubisoft Kiev to develop the PC version in parallel with the console versions. Information on Origins, then titled Assassin 's Creed Empire, first leaked in January 2017, showing several screenshots of a character on a boat and in front of a cave. The game was officially revealed on June 11, 2017. It is being developed using the latest iteration of the AnvilNext engine. During production of Assassin 's Creed III in November 2011 Ubisoft conducted a fan survey exploring potential settings for future titles. Ancient Egypt was one of the most popular choices, but Alex Hutchinson, the creative director of Assassin 's Creed III, dismissed the results as he considered Ancient Egypt -- as with the other two chosen settings, feudal Japan and World War II -- as being `` the worst choices '' for a setting. The development team hired Egyptologists to assist in making the open world more accurate to the time period. The original score for the game was composed by Sarah Schachner, who previously worked on the series with Assassin 's Creed IV : Black Flag and Assassin 's Creed Unity. Marketing In August 2017, Square Enix announced a promotional crossover between the Assassin 's Creed franchise and Final Fantasy XV. Taking the form of an in - game event, it introduced Assassin 's Creed - themed content to the game. Assassin 's Creed - themed content was also made available in other Ubisoft games such as Tom Clancy 's Ghost Recon Wildlands and South Park : The Fractured but Whole. Reception Reception Aggregate score Aggregator Score Metacritic ( PC ) 84 / 100 ( PS4 ) 81 / 100 ( XONE ) 85 / 100 Review scores Publication Score Destructoid 8 / 10 EGM 9 / 10 Game Informer 8.5 / 10 Game Revolution GameSpot 7 / 10 GamesRadar IGN 9 / 10 PC Gamer ( US ) 84 / 100 Polygon 8.5 / 10 VideoGamer.com 8.0 / 10 Assassin 's Creed Origins received `` generally favorable '' reviews from critics, according to review aggregator Metacritic. GameSpot gave the game a 7 / 10, saying : `` While Assassin 's Creed Origins reaches great heights in this new setting, it routinely runs into issues that bog down the overall experience. Technical issues make for an inconsistent experience and its new gameplay pillars wobble under the weight of its systems. But despite this, the world of Origins remains fresh and exciting to explore, which is a testament to the remarkable setting and compelling story. '' Louise Blain from GamesRadar gave the game a score of 5 out of 5 stars and called it the best of the franchise, saying that `` As beautiful as it is deadly, Origins ' Egyptian playground is finally everything you wanted the Creed to be. '' Ray Carsillo 's score of 9 / 10 on EGMNow said that `` Assassin 's Creed Origins delivers a robust experience that mixes up the traditional Assassin 's Creed formula in a way that 's fresh and fun to play -- but which also harkens back to the series ' roots in some welcome ways, too. It marks an evolution fans might not have even known they were waiting for, delivering one of the best overall experiences we 've seen yet from the series. '' Alanah Pearce 's 9 / 10 review on IGN stated that `` Assassin 's Creed Origins is a deep - dive into a truly stunning realization of ancient Egypt, with a rich series of cultures, genuine characters, and more mission variety than any other game in the series. The combat is challenging and thoughtful, and while the loot system does n't match up to games like Destiny 2, there are enough different weapon types and enough enemy variety to keep you swapping between weapons, catered to the situation. The RPG elements encourage challenges of their own, and even despite a handful of bugs, I desperately wanted to keep playing. '' Colin Campbell of Polygon gave the game a score of 8.5 / 10, writing, `` In essence, Assassin 's Creed Origins is much the same game as the original Assassin 's Creed, which came out a decade ago. It 's a formula that people like to play, and it 's certainly been honed and improved over the years. Origins is, then, undoubtedly the best iteration of this formula yet. But I yearn for a fresh approach and new ideas, something that astounds the senses as much as the wondrous world this game inhabits. '' Eurogamer ranked the game 23rd on their list of the `` Top 50 Games of 2017 '', while EGMNow ranked it sixth on their list of the 25 Best Games of 2017. Controversy A controversy arose when several online video game journalists discovered that many of the game 's user reviews on review aggregator Metacritic were artificially improved through the use of an online bot.

Question: what is the plot of assassins creed origins
Answer: conflict between the Brotherhood of Assassins, who fight for peace by promoting liberty, and The Order of the Ancients—forerunners to the Templar Order—who desire peace through the forced imposition of order
