Ubisoft shows us a different side of Assassin’s Creed: Origins

Different than we saw yesterday, anyway

It’s only officially two days revealed, but Ubisoft just gave us our second look at Assassin’s Creed: Origins. 

This one was wildly different than what we saw yesterday. During Xbox’s press conference, we got gameplay. We got the stabbing and whatnot, but we also got a peek at the systems behind this Assassin’s Creed. It’s not what the series has traditionally churned out.

Today, was all about a stylish trailer. It’s something that sells Egypt as a setting — lots of wild animals and gorgeous environment shots. It serves a different purpose, but an equally important one.

I, for one, am into it. For now, anyway. We should see Assassin’s Creed: Origins in more detail this week at E3. We’ll have more thorough impressions later on.
