  • Assassin's Creed Discovery Tour is a new mode that allows you to explore Ancient Egypt without time pressure or the threat of combat. IT's basically like a virtual museum, complete with audio commentaries on a whole host of wonders. We spoke to Ubisoft about Discovery Tour, and the team had some very interesting stories to tell us about how it was made.

    This is legit awesome, I would have adored this at school. Would love to see Ubisoft keep discovery mode for future games.

    After 70 hours of gameplay I started discovery tour and it’s incredible.
    The map itself is gorgeous and during gameplay I spent a ridiculous amount of time just riding my horse throughout places like Alexandria and Cyrene, i took a ton of pics and now this is the icing on the cake. Each tour offers interesting facts in just the right amount. No tour takes longer than 10 mins and it’s split in several checkpoints. There’s no way you can lose focus and there’s plenty of time for the information to sink in.
    This is the future of learning! 👏

    Nice HAT you're wearing, Aoife.
    I'm all for this sort of thing, not only because it can make education a lot more fun and engaging, but also because it provides game engines & all the work that goes into the assets with a longer lifespan. It imbues the hard work of devs with ongoing value that can't really exist with games alone (because of constantly evolving worlds and new games coming out so often).

    I cant wait for this if only they had this when i was in school. I take lot in from games as i cant read or spell that well. So to have this is great wish i had this in shcool i think this is goin to be so good for kids. Its about time they did this with games. Not all blood and killing. I hope they do more of this in games to come

  • @danielflanard8274

    Already I want to get Origins, it looks like one of the best installments so far, but having a relaxing mode that focuses on history with images, tons of stuff to read, and commentary from educated historians, well, I would be in heaven. I wish they had something like this in previous games. Ancient Egypt is a great setting for the tours and a fascinating part of history but I would love to have tours in the colonial era or industrial revolution.

  • @madness1931
    @madness1931 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I have always been interested in this game the only reason I haven't bought this game is I'm not that good of a player but with this new tour guide one learning about the history to being able to see where I am going might help out a lot I am definitely going to get this game now I might not never get to the end because like I said I'm just not that good now if you put a Zelda game in front of me I can finish that definitely going to get it with the guide looks very interesting and fun thanks for sharing

  • @DerektheDalek
    @DerektheDalek 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    As someone with a strong history background, the possibilities with this kind of mode, either as part of future AC games or even as its own entity, could be - both as great educational tools AND fun. And it's got me excited not only at the hope that this mode is implemented in all future AC games - especially since both Feudal Japan and the Viking Era have been rumored - but also that Ubisoft could go back to previous locations from past AC games, remaster them and give them this treatment in a new Discovery Tour package. Imagine getting to explore AC1's Crusade era Jerusalem, Renascence Florence from the Edizo games, the Age of Piracy from Black Flag or the spawling worlds of Unity's French Revolution and Syndicate's Victorian London. Next to getting a time machine and going back in time to these places it's the next best thing, in my opinion.

    Still, sounds like they've done a great job with this feature.

      Descendant of Kraff I hope so, but most countries don't put a focus on ancient history later on. You will not need the knowledge provided to get your A-Levels. Sad but true. I don't think it could replace teaching, but for sure boring museum tours.

What a joke, AC Origins/Odyssey do it right. The right amount of gameplay with immersion of the culture properly respected.
