Assassin’s Creed Odyssey – New Gameplay Footage Showcases Alexios on the Hunt for Medusa

Alexios sets off on the hunt for Medusa.

When Ubisoft revealed Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, they hinted at mythological creatures, such as Medusa, being included in the game. Not too long ago, we got our first look at that facet of the upcoming sequel, and it looked suitably exciting. Now, at their PAX West 2018 panel, Ubisoft have delved a little deeper into that, showing us new footage Alexios, the male protagonist, in action as he sets off on the quest that leads to the hunt for Medusa.

The gameplay footage showcases the island of Lesbos, and we get to a lot of diverse environments along with some naval gameplay as well. Towards the end of the video, you can even see Alexios face off against Medusa in an epic battle. You can check out the gameplay footage below. We’ve embedded the entire livestream, but it’s been timestamped to the Assassin’s Creed Odyssey section, so just hit play.

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is set to release for the PC, PS4, and Xbox One on October 5. Recently, the game’s entire world map was revealed, and it was was confirmed that it would be 62% bigger than Assassin’s Creed Origins’ Ancient Egypt. Read more on that through here.
