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 predetermined animations based on player inputs and scripted AI movements. The game also features revised combat mechanics. Naval combat, underwater exploration and tomb raiding return to the series. The player can also tame various predators which will serve as a companion for the player and assist them against enemies. The player can 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 '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was used by the franchise to give the player the ability to scout an area by highlighting enemies and objects, has been replaced by a Bonelli's eagle named Senu as a companion. Outside of quests, the player can freely roam the open world environment on foot, horseback, camel-back, horse-drawn vehicles or boat to explore locations, complete optional side-quests and unlock weapons. Players complete quests-linear scenarios with set objectives-to progress through the story, earn experience points, and acquire new skills. Players may travel around the game's open world of Egypt on horseback.Īssassin's Creed Origins is an action-adventure stealth game played from a third-person perspective.
