Hey Explorers,
Welcome back to another fascinating discussion on gaming history! Today, we’re diving into the world of Assassin’s Creed Origins and how this iconic franchise was initially conceived.
The beloved Assassin's Creed series, known for its deep historical settings and stealthy gameplay, was originally envisioned as a sequel to Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. Yes, you heard that right!Did you know?
In 2003, after the success of Prince of Persia, Ubisoft planned a sequel titled Prince of Persia: Assassin. However, the project soon took a life of its own, evolving into what we now know as Assassin’s Creed. The developers realized they could tell richer stories and explore unique gameplay mechanics by moving away from the Prince of Persia universe.
Fast forward to 2017, Assassin’s Creed Origins took us back to ancient Egypt, revealing the beginnings of the Assassin Brotherhood. With its expansive world, enhanced combat, and captivating history, it revitalized the franchise and won over fans and critics alike.
