Assassin’s Creed Origins Trials of the Gods Receiving New Hard Mode

Assassin’s Creed Origins has a unique limited time event for those brave enough – it’s called Trials of the Gods and sees players fighting against ancient deities like Anubis, Sobek and Sekhmet. Thanks to increased level caps and enough time to gear up, veteran players have wanted these Trials to be even tougher.

With today’s update, Trials of the Gods will receive an additional Hard Mode to tackle. While a regular boss will be available each week this month, you’ll have the option to fight a different boss on Hard Mode. Beating the Hard Mode bosses has the potential for awesome new gear (including creepy Anubis-themed armour that can be seen above).

It also seems that the Light Among the Dunes, a free quest to set up the story in the Curse of the Pharaohs expansion, will also be going live today. Assassin’s Creed Origins: The Curse of the Pharaohs will be launching on March 13th for Xbox One, PS4 and PC. It marks the second and final expansion for the game in this Season Pass.
