Assassin's Creed Odyssey
Assassin's Creed Odyssey, développé par Ubisoft Québec et édité par Ubisoft Entertainment, est sorti le 5 octobre 2018 sur PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S et Google Stadia. Ce jeu d'action-aventure mêlant aventure et jeu de rôle se déroule en Grèce antique durant la guerre du Péloponnèse, où le joueur incarne Alexios ou Kassandra, mercenaire spartiate banni de sa terre natale, et part à la recherche de la vérité sur sa famille fracturée au sein du conflit entre Athènes et Sparte. Le protagoniste croise une société secrète agissant dans l'ombre et découvre un lien avec une civilisation bien plus ancienne, ses décisions façonnant alliances et déroulement de l'histoire dans un monde vivant. Les affrontements épiques entre Sparte et Athènes peuvent réunir jusqu'à 150 soldats par camp, et le voyage permet d'explorer paysages, cités et sites historiques tout en personnalisant équipement, navire et aptitudes. L'édition Ultimate inclut le jeu de base, le Season Pass (deux extensions, une mission, Assassin's Creed III et Liberation Remastered) et le pack Deluxe, l'Édition Gold le jeu et le Season Pass, l'Édition Deluxe le jeu et le pack Deluxe. Fonctionnant sur le moteur AnvilNext avec les DRM Uplay, Denuvo et VMProtect, le titre affiche un temps de parcours de 45 heures et demi pour l'histoire principale et 145 heures en complétionniste, pour un prix de 59,99 euros. Accueilli par un score Metacritic de 86 et OpenCritic de 84, il a reçu des éloges de la presse comme We Got This Covered le qualifiant d'épopée historique stupéfiante, tandis que certains joueurs sur Steam regrettent que la liberté d'action fasse perdre de vue la mission principale.

Avis des critiques et joueurs
Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« Assassin's Creed Odyssey is an epic, historical RPG that uses elements of Assassin's Creed to tell a different kind of origin story, and the results are stunning in almost every way. »
« I’d definitely suggest taking a look at Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, even if you’re not sure you need another AC game in your life so soon after Origins. It’s a pretty great experience overall, and outside of some the standard open world bugs you’d expect in a game this size, I really don’t have any major complaints here. I ended up enjoying it more than Origins, and I really liked Origins. I’m not sure that I want a third game like this next year, but as far as follow-ups go, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is pretty fantastic. »
« Perfects everything Origins did and enhances them in ways you never thought an Assassin's Creed game could. Odyssey has it all. »
« Assassin's Creed Odyssey is a celebration of the series' highlights, transforming the open world genre with its breathtaking scenery, meaningful choices, and exhausting amount of detail that rewards players every step of the way. Ubisoft Quebec's brave quest to make an RPG results in the best entry in Assassin's Creed's historic treks through time. »
« Not since Breath of the Wild have I enjoyed an open world game this much. With so much to see and do, Assassin's Creed Odyssey is one of, it not the best, game in the Assassin's Creed franchise—and absolutely a game of the year contender. »
« A glorious sum of newly implemented RPG systems, refined traditional series beats and boasting one of the most entertaining stories in recent memory, Assassin's Creed Odyssey is simply the best in the series and one of the finest open-world adventures available. »
« Assassin’s Creed’s gradual evolution to RPG is complete. While it remains familiar, the deeper combat, dialogue choices and consequences have upended Assassin’s Creed’s stealthy roots to deliver a sprawling, multi-tiered historical RPG epic. It’s the culmination of the series own journey, and only fitting it be called Odyssey. »
« Ubisoft set out to create an Assassin’s Creed game worthy of Odysseus’ name, and bravo, they have done it. It’s certainly as long as one of Homer’s poems, but every minute of it is entertaining, and, well, fun. »
Avis des Joueurs (Metacritic)
« This game is amazing for the grafich and the plot an for This things and other i reccomand This game for people Who like assassin creed saga »
« mejor que la entrega anterior, el mundo un poco mas vivo, algunas mecanicas las pudieron mejorar, una historia un poco mas interesante, pero eso, cumple »
« You absolutely must play the game with the female character, Kassandra. It fits the story much better. Of all the games I've played, Kassandra is one of my favorite characters, and I've become emotionally attached to her. The game's story is also very successful. And there's nothing to say about the map detail and size; they've mastered it. It consists of massive cities. The game was developed using real locations, historically accurate. Both DLC packs are excellent. The Legacy of the First Blade DLC's story ends with a magnificent finale, connecting to the previous game, Origins. I don't understand how this game gets low scores. They like games like God of War and Pragmata and criticize this one. Unfortunately, there are so many ignorant people everywhere who don't understand games and art. »
« This game is cool! I like it! I play this for many days and i started to like it! This is one of the best games ever! »
« Great map. Great combat. Great side quests. And the story was just amazing. Only criticism is that progressing levels was a little challenging and boring »
« Assassin’s Creed Odyssey remains a testament to how well a game can age, as the setting is still breathtaking and the visuals hold up incredibly well even years after release. The game creates a truly immersive atmosphere, and from a gameplay perspective, it remains a solid, enjoyable RPG experience, even if it might not quite reach the heights of the absolute best entries in the series. However, the game does have its shortcomings, particularly regarding the side quests, which often feel trivial and lack the depth that previous installments managed to provide. Perhaps the biggest hurdle for me personally was the lack of a strong emotional connection to Kassandra and Alexios; I simply didn't feel as invested in their journey compared to some of the more iconic protagonists from other chapters in the franchise. »

« Le jeu Assassin's Creed Odyssey propose une Grèce antique magnifique, avec un monde immense et visuellement très réussi. L’exploration est agréable et certains paysages donnent vraiment une sensation d’aventure. Cependant, le jeu s’éloigne énormément de l’identité originale de la licence Assassin’s Creed. Le côté infiltration et assassinat passe souvent au second plan au profit d’un RPG beaucoup plus orienté action et farm. L’histoire est la plus mauvaise de la licence, et le jeu souffre surtout d’une map beaucoup trop grande et d’activités répétitives qui finissent rapidement par rendre l’aventure longue et fatigante. Certaines quêtes donnent également une impression de remplissage inutile. Même si le gameplay peut rester amusant et que l’univers grec est réussi, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey peine à retrouver ce qui faisait le charme des anciens épisodes. »
