Assassin's Creed Origins Confirmed – For Real – At E3

We knew this one was coming. And honestly, putting it at the Microsoft show was not a bad idea on Ubisoft's part. The official reveal trailer for Assassin's Creed: Origins is finally here, and it is everything we expected. The name, the setting, the logo, the protagonist. The leaks were absolutely accurate, and to be fair, there was little doubt that they weren't. But we've got final confirmation.

Mostly I'm just excited we finally have an eagle companion.

The trailer's massive description is as follows:

Journey into Ancient Egypt, the most mysterious place in history, during a crucial period that will shape the world. Discover the secrets behind the Great Pyramids, forgotten myths, the last pharaohs, and – engraved in long-lost hieroglyphics – the origin story of the Assassin's Brotherhood.

For the last four years, the team behind the acclaimed Assassin's Creed® IV Black Flag® has been focused on crafting a new beginning for the franchise. Fight in a completely new way where you transition seamlessly between unique ranged and melee weapons, and take on multiple enemies at once. Choose your Assassin skills while exploring the full country of Ancient Egypt, engaging in multiple quests and gripping stories along a journey that will change civilization.
