Yesterday’s leak, and a cheeky confirmation from Ubisoft, revealed that the next Assassin’s Creed game - Assassin’s Creed Odyssey - will be set in Ancient Greece. Beyond that, the publisher is keeping quiet until its E3 showcase. But that shouldn’t stop us guessing, should it?
Jeremy and Jules are hoping that it will instead go the route of Far Cry: Blood Dragon, a less serious, non-canon, spin-off version of Assassin’s Creed Origins. One that sets the new game in the world of Ancient Greek myth and legend.

For a more serious take on Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Matt’s been pulling together different threads - including the lore of the last game, and other rumours and leaks - to make his best educated guess at what Odyssey will be like, but building from the assumption that this will be a full-throated sequel to Origins.
Jules: So, Jeremy, as the two people on the team who have played some Assassin’s Creed games and read at least some books, we are truly qualified to pitch a spin-off in the style of Blood Dragon for Assassin’s Creed Origins, one that is set in the world of Greek myth.
Jeremy: The Odyssey is the obvious ledge to leap for, isn’t it? Even the new Mario managed to nod to the classics with its journey between lands, although - spoilers! - it didn’t conclude with the plucky plumber murdering a room full of Peach’s suitors.
