Assassin’s Creed: Origins trailer introduces the shadowy Order of the Ancients

Those who seek control of Assassin’s Creed: Origins‘ Egypt do not always operate in the light. No, there are those who hide in the shadows, while attempting to change the landscape of the world around them. These masked people form the Order of the Ancients — a group that is obsessed with gaining the power of the gods, and has secretly turned the pharaoh into its puppet.

As Bayek, gamers will have to work towards ending the reign of this ancient sect, before it ruins Egypt to the point of no return. This means fighting against those who are responsible for his pain, in an attempt to stop them from burning the country to the ground.

Assassin’s Creed: Origins will be released on October 27th, for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC.
