Assassin's Creed Odyssey

The story

Set in ancient Greece during the Peloponnesian War, the player takes the role of either Alexios or Kassandra, a Spartan mercenary cast out from their homeland. On a journey that spans the Greek world, they must uncover the truth about their fractured family while navigating the conflict between Athens and Sparta. Along the way, the protagonist becomes entangled with a mysterious cult operating in the shadows and discovers a connection to a civilization far older than their own. Their choices shape alliances, determine the fates of those around them, and influence how history unfolds across the Greek world.

Publisher's content notice

This is an action-adventure game in which players assume the role of Alexios or Kassandra, mercenaries on a quest for vengeance. As players explore an open-world environment in Ancient Greece, they interact with characters, infiltrate enemy bases and strongholds, and kill human enemies. Players use swords, spears, and bows to kill enemy soldiers and bandits in melee-style combat. Players also use stealth attacks (e.g., knife stabbing) to dispatch enemies discreetly. Large blood-splatter effects occur as enemies are killed. A handful of cutscenes depict more intense acts of violence and/or gore: characters stabbed through the head/neck with bladed weapons; young characters thrown off a cliff; a man mauled by a mob as his arm gets thrown into the air. Some environments depict severed limbs and dismembered corpses on the ground. The game contains instances of sexual material: characters kissing and caressing before the screen fades to black (sex is implied though never shown); dialogue referencing sex and prostitution (e.g., “Anything goes in this sex andron”; “That is love, this is commerce. What are you into?”); a character hearing sexual moaning sounds behind a door. The words “f**k” and “sh*t” are heard in the game.
