Ubisoft is poised to reveal "Assassin's Creed: Origins" gameplay demo at E3 in June. Prior to the official reveal, however, a slew of leaks of its new and returning features have been circulating online that may be worth a look ahead of its debut.
The screenshot that was leaked recently on Reddit was reportedly from the "Assassin's Creed: Origins" gameplay demo that will be unveiled at E3 this June. Also, the leak apparently confirmed the rumors that the game is set in an ancient Egyptian setting.
Meanwhile, more fresh leaks have surfaced on the net surrounding the new and returning features that fans can expect from "Assassin's Creed: Origins". Here are some of the most notable ones.
Eagle Companion
If the recent leaks are anything to go by, the eagle companion will return and claimed to be named, "Akhom". The said eagle will be searching for the map from anywhere, although, there is a limit in distance set by main protagonist.
Hood Up, Hood Down
Moreover, players will now be able to put their hood up or down in "Assassin's Creed: Origins". "You'll be able to put your hood up or down whenever you feel like it," the leaker claimed.
Modern Day Protagonist
Leaks have also confirmed a new modern day protagonist who is already a trained assassin. He will be fully capable to use the hidden blade and he will be in contact with Rebecca, Shaun and William who will hand over his mission.
New Hero to Star in Two More Games
The new game hero will also appear in two more games in the series, similar to the Ezio Trilogy. The next title to "Assassin's Creed: Origins" will be set in Greece and the third game is unknown yet. The new GIF teaser from Ubisoft that "a new era begins" seemingly confirm this information.
Setting
The game is also claimed to take place between 1400 and 1200BCE. The poster added to reveal that there is a piece of Eden used during the Exodus and the crossing of the Red Sea, which is connected to the main mission of the modern day Assassin.
"Assassin's Creed: Origins" will possibly launch before Christmas. This happens to be plausible since past AC title releases were slated around October of the year.
